You can use non-cumulative key figures in your DataStore object.
Prerequisites
The DataStore objects either has the properties
- Activate/Compress Data and All Characteristics are Key, Reporting on Union of Inbound and Active Table or
- Activate/Compress Data und Write Change Log.
The reference points that is required for calculation of the non-cumulatives is updated with the change log data. The DataStore object must therefore have a change log.
A key also must have been defined for the DataStore object. InfoObjects must be used as key figures, non-cumulative key figures and validity characteristics. Fields are not supported for this.
Procedure
- If you select the Inventory flag on the General tab page, another tab page appears with the name Inventory.
- You can now add a non-cumulative key figure. When the non-cumulative key figure is added, the key figure for non-cumulative changes, or the key figures for inflows and outflows, is/are also added to the DataStore object.
- The time-reference characteristic is determined automatically if there is a valid time characteristic.
- You can choose valid characteristics from the characteristics in the key, which are not time characteristics.
