MC$6/MC$K Configuration in Purchasing-Statistics and Historic Data

[former_member458605]

Hello Experts,

Can you please give guidance on how to configure this data? Currently I have the below configured. This is based on recommendations from a consultant for quantity and am unsure on a good method for date. Maybe -20, -10, 10, 20. My questions are as follows:

How does this configuration handle items between the stated values in the configuration (example -7 or -20)?

How do I effectively configure the past data to be included to run transactions MC$6 and MC$8? Is it within OLI3? What are the key fields that need to be considered when running this transaction? I am attempting to run an update with a termination date of today for SO12, but I am unsure if this is the correct path forward and if I have the correct criteria selected. Furthermore, when attempting this run in the past, it terminates with a finite amount of documents due to run time.

Quantity:

1 10.0-
2 1.0-
3 0.0
4 10.0

Please go into MCFC and press F1 in the second column, the help has an example that gives you the answer to your first question.

Of course will the customizing of MCFC only effect purchase orders and their receipts that are created after the customizing. If you want a result for the past then you would need to regenerate the info structure.

If this fails then you have to analyze the reason, if the time is not sufficient for foreground process then do it in background. In any case you should first check OSS notes like 459450 - FAQ: Logistic Information System (LIS) in Purchasing

And there are quite many more, even most are old, when searching with the term: oli3 s012

as the regeneration can also have some unwanted effects.
