This section describes the settings you have to make in ALE Customizing for profitabilty analysis, if data is to be distributed.

Requirements

  • You have set up the sending and receiving systems in ALE Customizing.
  • The structure of the operating concern (attributes and value fields) must be the same in all participating systems.
  • You must have generated the message types for each operating concern in Customizing for the CO-PA application using Generate/update message type. These message types must be identical in all the CO-PA distributed systems. It is best to carry out the settings for the last two steps in the central system and transport them to the decentralized systems.

Note: For information about ALE settings in the CO-PA application see the IMG section Controlling -> Sales and Profits Controlling -> Tools -> Distributed Profitability Analysis.

Activities

Maintenance of the Distribution Model

You maintain the distribution model in Maintain Distribution Model.

  • Create the message type 'CPxxxx' (xxxx = operating concern) for a model view for the costing-based profitability analysis and and CODCMT (CO document) for the account-based profitability analysis.

  • You can create filters to restrict the attributes distributed.

The following filter object types are provided:

  • Operating concern
  • Sales organization
  • Plan version
  • Plan/actual indicator
  • Currency type

In costing-based profitability analysis you can create your own filters using other fixed attributes:

  1. From the SAP menu, choose 'Tools -> Business Framework -> ALE -> Development'.
  2. Choose 'IDoc -> ALE objects -> Define' to define an ALE object type.

  • In table 'CE0xxxx (xxxx = operating concern) enter the table name in the column 'Table Name' and the field name in the column 'Field Name'.
  • Assign this defined ALE object type to the message type by choosing 'IDoc -> ALE objects -> Assign to message type'. In the columns enter:
    Field Name: Field name of attribute
    Segment type: E1KEFXA (CO-PA IDoc: fixed fields)
    No.: 1
    Field Name: Field name of attribute

Master Data to be distributed:

  • Material master (core data)
  • Customer master record (core data)
  • Results of product costing
