| aggregation (SCM-APO-FCS) |
Function by which key figure values on the lowest level of detail are automatically summed at run time and displayed on a high level. For example, if you display forecasted demand for a region in the interactive planning screen, you see the forecasted demand for all of the different sales channels, product families, brands, products, and customers in that region. This ensures a consistent planning approach throughout your organization.
Key figure values are stored at the lowest level of detail. If you use aggregates, the data is also saved on the aggregate levels.
You set the aggregation type in S&DP Administration.
