Documentation
Definition
Specifies that the system also aggregates the stock data that is determined by the stock query across plants.
Use
If you query stock data for several plants, you can set this indicator in order to make the system also provide the stock data in aggregated form, across plants. The aggregation is for all the queried stocks, including stocks at storage location level, special stocks, and stock commitments.
Dependencies
The Aggregation Across Batches and Aggregation Across Storage Locations indicators provide you with other options for aggregating stock data.
For information about how the queried stock data (broken down or aggregated, if applicable) is made available, see the documentation for method GET of class CL_INVENTORY_LOOKUP.
Example
You run a stock query for stock data at storage location level for material M001 in plants P001 to P003, and set the Break Down Into Storage Locations indicator. Each plant has storage locations SL01 and SL02. First, the stock data for the following key combinations is determined:
Material Plant Storage Location
M001 P001 SL01
M001 P001 SL02
M001 P002 SL01
M001 P002 SL02
M001 P003 SL01
M001 P003 SL02
If you set the indicator for aggregation across plants, the system also provides the stock data using the material as the only key field:
Material
M001
