Definition

The indicator can only take on the values 1 and 0 whereby the 1/0 logic is applied through the POS interface.

In practice this means that when a new object first appears (receipt number, material group, item, EAN/UPC, article, condition, method of payment), a 1 is shown, otherwise a 0.

This makes the update logic in SAP BW relatively easy, that is, it can be worked out without restrciting the update in SAP BW (for example, receipt InfoCube).
