Use

You define key figures in this IMG activity. You use these key figures for the following functions in BCS:

  • Consistency check of budgeting
  • Activities for the end of the year

    For example, to carry forward your residual budget.

  • As additional information in the budgeting workbench
    You can display up to 5 columns with key figures in the budgeting workbench as additional information at the document line level.
  • For reporting purposes with report FMKF_REPORT01
    You execute the report in the Funds Management menu under Infosystem -> Budget Control System (BCS) -> Budget -> Evaluation Using Key Figures.
  • If you use an individual budget type for the consumable budget for each fund or fund type
  • Execute transfers in a Transfer Budget Data.

Key Figure Category

When you define a key figure, you define a Category on the tab page specifying for which of the above functions a key figure should be used. If the indicator for a category is not set, the key figure in the respective function is not displayed in F4 help.

In this IMG activity, you can restrict the selection of existing key figures according to their category on the initial screen. The key figures of all categories are displayed by default.

Customer Name Space

Note the specifications for the customer name space when creating your user-specific key figures. The key of user-specific key figures must start with YY... or with ZZ....

Defining Key Figures

The data of particular data sources is read in a key figure. If you select a data source, all the fields for defining key figures contained in it are available. If you have selected a number of data sources, they are displayed on different tab pages.

  • Key Figure Term

    A key figure combines one or several terms for each selected data source. You define the filtering and totaling of the data in the term by defining attributes or fixed values for the data fields. You can set a differentiated data aggregation by assigning (plus/minus sign) a number of terms to each other.

  • Meta Values

    When you select attributes that you can define for a data field, the interpretation of meta values is supported in addition to the direct entry of original data of the data source. This means that the original data can be totaled or modified, or the fields can be set to entry- dependent.

    The following meta values are supported for key figures:

    Attribute    Meta value interpretation

    #    the input value is adopted as a value

    *    all existing values for the attribute are totaled up

    -1,-2...+1,+2...    the meta value entered is added/subtracted for the input value.

    &    Only valid for the fields Budget Type and Fiscal Year

Note

Depending on the fund in question, some budgets are considered as consumable and others as "not available for consumption". This means that when you choose the meta-value &, the key figure will only evaluate the amount of all consumable budget types for the fund currently being processed. Other budget values which are assigned with non-consumable budget types are not totaled up.

Please find further information on the budget type under IMG activity Define Budget Type for Consumed Amount for Each Fund .

Depending on the fund in question, some budgets are based on annual values and others on overall values. This is defined in the IMG activity for fund types.

  • If the fund you are processing is defined as annual, the input value for the Fiscal Year is adopted as a value. In this case, the meta-value & is dynamically replaced by # .
  • If the fund you are processing is defined as overall, all existing values for the Fiscal Year are totaled up. In this case, the meta-value & is dynamically replaced by *.

Please find more information on the fund type under the IMG activity Create FM Fund Types.

Standard settings

SAP delivers a group of key figures that you can use in your FM area. You can also define your own key figures and use the key figures delivered by SAP as templates.

Note:

Key figures of the Year End category are subject to certain restrictions. You can only create customer-defined key figures of the year end category by using the key figures delivered by SAP as a template. Furthermore, changes can only be made in the budget data term. It is not possible to make changes in the actual data term.

Example

You want to display the budget values of the budget category 9F (payment budget) entered in the previous year in the budgeting workbench as additional data. As you work with several budget versions, define that the budget of the previous year for the version entered is displayed using the attribute "#".

You define a key figure with the following term:

Plus/minus sign    version    category    value type    activity    budget type    WF status    fiscal year

+    #    9F    B1    ENTR    *    P    -1

Activities

  1. Select Create.
  2. Define the key of a key figure, the description and the heading.
    The heading is displayed in the budgeting workbench as the column description of this key figure.
  3. Select the pushbutton Select Data Source and select one or more data sources. Hold down the CTRL key to select more than one data source.
    The data fields of the selected data sources are displayed in a tab page.
  4. Create a line that is ready for input for a key figure term by selecting the pushbutton Add Line.
  5. Define the key figure term by selecting an entry via F4 for each input field, or define the appropriate attribute using meta values.
  6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 if the key figure is made up of several terms. In such a case, define the reference of the terms to each other using the plus/minus sign control (field Plus/Minus Sign+/-).
  7. Save your entries.

Further notes

When you are on the entry screen, you can transport several key figures between systems by selecting the pushbutton Transport of Key Figure and defining the assignment made to a transport request.

You can find more information in the SAP Library under Budget Control System (BCS).
