Net Margin
The analytical app displays the Key Performance Indicator (KPI) Net Margin
. You can drill down to see your net profit margin ratio over a selected period in the current fiscal year and compare it with your planned amounts and with history data from the same period in the previous fiscal year.
Key Features
Data Aggregation
The net profit margin ratio that the system calculates takes revenue, sales deductions, direct costs, and indirect costs aggregated based on a hierarchy of cost element groups that you specify in the ABAP back-end. For more information, see “Back-End Server: Create Hierarchies of Cost Element Groups” in App Implementation: Net Margin.
Measures
The following measures are available for you to create your own KPI tiles and drill-downs:
Field | Description |
|---|---|
| Retrieves the actual net profit margin for the current fiscal year to the current date as a percentage, including revenue and cost postings with a date in the future |
| Retrieves the actual net profit margin for the same period in the previous fiscal year as a percentage |
| Retrieves the planned net profit margin for the current fiscal year to the current period as a percentage |
| Retrieves the variance in net profit margin between the actual and last year's figures in basis points |
| Retrieves the variance in net profit margin between the actual and planned figures in basis points |
Dimensions for Filtering and Drill-Down
You can filter or drill down your data by various dimensions, such as the companies under your organization, controlling area, customers, materials, and time.
Calculation Rules
To determine the net profit margin ratio, the app applies the following calculation rule:
(revenue − sales deductions − direct costs − indirect costs) / (revenue − sales deductions)
Constraints
The following constraints apply to certain types of data within the app:
Fiscal period is based on months only (instead of calendar week, for example).
The app evaluates data from account-based profitability analysis only. Therefore, it does not retrieve any actual or planning data from cost-based profitability analysis.
