Documentation

Definition

Indicator that controls how existing data in the target version is treated.

Supplementary Documentation - BP_CP_M2 0001

Definition

Indicator which controls how the data already in the target version is to be treated

Use

You can opt either to retain the existing data in the target version, or to overwrite it

  • reset and overwrite

    The SAP System resets all the data in the target version relating to the relevant planning activity, and overwrites it with the plan data from the reference version.You can opt to either keep existing plan data in the target version, or to overwrite it.

  • Retain (i.e. just add new data)

    The SAP System checks whether the target version for the project includes plan data in the relevant degree of planning detail. This data is not overwritten.

    Example 1:
    If version 000 contains structure plan values for 1994 and 1995, and version 001 contains structure plan avlues for 1994, only the new data - that is, the values for 1995 - are copied.

    Example 2:
    There are two plan versions, with the following cost element plan values:
    Version 000:
    Cost element 400000/1995: $1000 and 415000/1995: $1500
    Version 001:
    Cost element 400000/1995: $2000
    The system copies the plan value for cost element 415000 to version 001.

If the target version ever contained plan data, but you have since reset the value to 0, the database still includes a planning data record, with value 0. The SAP System recognizes this data record and does not overwrite it.

Use

If you set this indicator, the existing budget values in the target version are reset and you can overwrite them with budget values from the reference version.

Procedure

Examples

Reference version:
A: $100 B: $10 C: $0
