In this step, you configure copy profiles. Copy profiles allow you to copy data in the background from one version to another version of different information structures.

Copy profiles facilitate data entry since you do not have to make the necessary settings every time you want to copy data from one information structure to another; instead, you simply choose a copy profile.

Note

You do not need to create a copy profile if the following conditions are met:

  • the planning method of both your source and your target information structures is consistent planning
  • you require a high-level copy with subsequent distribution

    In this case, you create a key figure assignment profile and then carry out the function Planning -> Mass processing -> Copy/delete version -> High-level copy.

    For more information, see Copy key figures between info structures.

You make the settings for the copying process in two steps:

  1. You create a key figure assignment profile.
  2. You create a copy profile.

The second of these steps is described below.

Copy profiles specify:

  • the name of the copy profile (this is a speaking name of your own choice)
  • the version of the information structure from which data is copied
  • the version of the information structure to which data is copied
  • the first and last dates of the period for which you want data to be copied
  • the assignment key which you defined in the step "Assign key figures to copy profile"

Example

Your company uses one information structure to plan sales and another information structure to plan production.

You can use the combination of a copy profile and a key figure assignment profile to define that the key figures for "planned sales quantities" are copied from the first information structure to the key figures for "planned producion quantities" in the second information structure.

Requirements

You need to create a key figure assignment profile before carrying out this step.

Actions

  1. Create or change your entries.
  2. Save them.
