Procedure

Once you have entered values for variables, you can enter your plan figures on the overview screen. The overview screen is designed like the planning layout. Before displaying the overview screen, the system reads the plan figures from the database for the profit centers you want to plan, and summarizes them according to the specified characteristics. When you post new or changed plan data is posted, the system leaves any unspecified characteristics blank. An exception here is the origin object type - which is always 01 (Origin: Profit Center Accounting) - and the quantity unit, which is derived automatically if you are planning statistical key figures.

To prevent several users planning a profit center simultaneously, the system locks the objects you want to plan.

On the overview screen, proceed as follows:

  1. Enter plan data for the characteristic combinations you have selected.

    2. When planning on the overview screen, the system distributes data according to the default distribution key if you have not entered another distribution key.

    Caution

    Note that, in contrast to previous Releases, fixed values (statistical key figures of type 1) can only be planned for previously selected periods. The fixed value is no longer updated in later periods.

  3. You can create long texts for individual data records by selecting the desired row and then choosing Edit ® Planning functions ® Long text. The key of the long text can contain the following characteristics:

    4. Ledger, record type, version, fiscal year, controlling area, profit center, account, statistical key figure, company code, partner profit center, plant, representative material.

    Note

    Note that it is not possible to write separate long texts for records with different characteristic values. For example, you cannot define two long texts for records that have different functional areas but are the same in all other characteristics.

  4. Save your entries.

The data you enter or change is written to the database. All unspecified characteristics remain blank.
