Generate/Update Message Type

In order to run Profitability Analysis in a distributed system environment, you need to generate system message types which control the communication with the local systems. You need one system message type for each type of Profitability Analysis (costing-based and account-based).

Activities

• For costing-based CO-PA, you need to generate message type CPxxxx (where xxxx is the name of your operating concern). You need one message type for each operating concern.

• For account-based CO-PA, you need to generate system message type CODCMT, or actualize it if it has already been generated for another application in CO.

Further Notes

If you change an operating concern or add new characteristics or value fields to it, you need to regenerate the corresponding system message type.
