Simple steps for creating a planning application

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am trying to create a simple planning application. I need to show the actuals by hierarchies on characteristics and allow the users to plan on various levels of the hierarchy. Then, I have to generate a report comparing the previous year actuals and present plans. Please let me know the simple steps to achieve this.

Thanks.

Hi Uma,

Refer to this How to document, for planning using hierarchy with several characteristics. If you would like to plan on hierarchy nodes you will need to have several characteristics in the hierarchy but if you want to plan only at the lowermost element you could do it using the normal hierarchy on an Infoobject.

Hope it helps.
