• Logical system

• Investment program position

• Appropriation request

• Measure

• Company

• Company code

• Business area

• Controlling area

• Profit center

• Cost center

• Plant

• Functional location

The characteristics below are for specifying the key figures:

• Fiscal year

• Plan version

• Value type with following possibilities:

• Plan for measures
• Actual
• Statistical plan
• Statistical actual
• Down payments as expense
• Commitments from purchase requisition
• Commitments from purchase order
• Commitments from reservations
• Manual commitments
• Remaining plan of apportioned orders/networks
• Budget for measures
• Budget for program position
• Plan for program position
• Plan for appropriation request (overall)
• Plan for appropriation request (less capital investments)

• Budget category (investment program)

• Indicator new/old (only for more detail for investment programs):

• Current values for investment program
• Carryforward for investment program
• Forecast for investment program

• Accounting transaction (Budget):

• Customer expected value type (for customer enhancements)

• Further limiting the key figures by period or cost element/cost element group/value category is not possible.
• The customer expected value type serves the same function as the SAP value type. It is intended to explain a key figure by its character. The customer value type can be supplied by the data collection program of the customer enhancement (SAP enhancement AAIP0002). Using this enhancement, you can store and evaluate special key figures that have not been provided by SAP for this purpose. (You can use either the customer value type or the value type.)

In conjunction with the "value type" characteristic, the summarization database offers the following "key figure types." The individual characteristic values that belong to these key figure types can be found under the value type characteristic in the above characteristic list.

• Plan (the individual characteristics are found under the characteristics "plan versions/variants" and/or "indicator new/old")

• Budget (the individual characteristics are found under the characteristic "accounting transaction")

• Actual

• Down Payments

• Commitments
