Layout - Problem with hierarchy in release 4.0 (SEM) -

18 Views

Hi,

In the release 3.0 we have a planning level including some characteristics with a lot of single values

(specially Cost element, Vendor and Order type).

In the layout builder we chose the “ form based lead column” option and hierarchy

We’ ve got a problem in SEM with the new release 4.0 (sem) ,because it seem impossible to have a sem’s level where exist,at the same time, a hierarchy of cost element set into the layout and also a group of cost element in the selection condition .

We have resolved the problem with application of SAP NOTES 595843 for use of the hierarchy with filter in the planning level in release 4.0.

After the application of the SAP NOTE we’ ve got another problem:

In layout builder we select “from possible characteristic combination” option;

In case of combination less than 500.000 the layout is executed without problem, but if the combination are greater then 500.000 the layout cannot be executed.

In release 3.0 there wasn’t problem.

If in layout builder we select “from transaction data”option and we execute layout we display only transaction data and there aren’t all possible combinations.

Thus the users should also be able to plan on all cost elements defined in level ( all possible combinations).

Looking for a solution we have selected in

1. Layout category : “ Key fig in data columns, row defined individually”

2. Additional setting

a. Characteristic combination :.“from transaction data”

b. Lead column :“dynamic row” for Cost Element.

When the layout is executed all the costs element are displayed but not there aren’t shown in hierarchical mode.

How could it be possible in this case to use hierarchy?

What is the alternative solution?

Thank’ you so much

Best regards
