When you activate distributed Profitability Analysis, you need to specify in the local (sender) systems how the data should be transferred to the central (receiver) system.
The following methods exist:
- Realtime distribution (transaction-based)
An IDoc with the line item is sent to the receiver system for each CO-PA posting in the local system. This method offers you the advantage that the receiver system always contains the most current, detailed information.
- Periodic rollup
In a periodic rollup, the data is not passed on to the receiver system until you execute the rollup function in the application. You can do this on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. The line items are selected in the sender system, summarized if necessary and sent to the receiver system. You should use this method if you do not need to have the most detailed information in the central system.
Note: You can only activate this for distribution in costing-based Profitability Analysis. It has no effect on account-based Profitability Analysis, where only realtime distribution is possible.
Example
Requirements
Standard settings
Recommendation
It is recommended that you do not switch between these two methods in your productive system since that could lead to inconsistences between the local (sender) systems and the central (receiver) system.
Activities
If you have activated realtime distribution, you can then use the function 'Run Initial Supply for Distributed Profitability Analysis' to post subsequently any data already posted but not yet distributed.
If you hav activated periodic rollup, you must then use the function 'Define Segment-Level Characteristics for Distributed CO-PA'.
Further notes
Even if you choose realtime distribution, it is possible not to send the data immediately to the central system. If you set up a large buffer when you customize the ALE function, the system will wait until it has collected a certain number of line items and then send them en bloc.
