Hi,

these kinds of key figures are not summarized(unlike sales, etc); examples are head count, inventory amount; these are always in relation to a point in time ; for eample we will ask how many employees we had in the last quarter.we don't add up the head count.the non cumulative key figure have exception aggregation as 'Last Value' .

non cumulative key figures are those that should not be added up or aggregated. a good generall example is temprature.

we CANNOT add temprature of all the days in a week to report total temprature.

to make a key figure non cumulative you need to maintain setting in the edit info object screen.
