Define Value Field Assignments

In this activity, you assign the value fields you want to distribute in top-down planning to the values you want to use as the reference for the distribution.

You can distribute your value fields using three basic strategies:

Reference "Fixed value field"

This option distributes the values of all value fields according to one reference field. You can choose any value field, such as the revenue or sales quantity, or any calculate value defined using value fields. If you want to use a calculated value, you must define this in the activity Define Calculated Values for Use as Reference Values.
If you want to use one fixed value field or calculated values as the reference, enter the value fields you want to distribute, and then enter the reference value for each of these.

Referece "By value fields"
This option allows you to use each value field as the reference value for distributing that particular value field. This means that the revenue is distributed based on the revenue in the reference data, the quantity discount according to the quantity discount in the reference data, and so on.
To achieve this, enter each value field you want to distribute and then enter the same value field as the reference.

Reference "Any value field"
You can also choose to distribute the value fields using any other value field or calculated value.

Requirements

If you want to use calculated values as reference values, you need to have defined these beforehand.
