Definition
A key figure scheme is a collection of formulas used to define key figures. The individual formulas are called "elements" and can be based on single database fields as well as other elements in the same key figure scheme. All database fields are defined in each scheme and are numbered 9001 through 9999. The elements that you define can be assigned numbers from 1 through 8999.
In a formula, you can use the usual arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) and parentheses. You can also define a formula using a function call. In addition to defining the contents of an element (formula and text), you can connect certain display parameters. For example, an element can have a specific display factor and decimal format.
In theory, you can define the necessary formulas in one key figure scheme. However, it makes more sense to define different schemes for different analysis purposes. Also, each key figure scheme should have a unified purposes. For example, you can create a key figure scheme that contains all your contribution margins.
The following example shows how you might set up different key figure schemes:
- Sales managers are interested in a key figure scheme based on the figures "Sales" and "Contribution margin" that cantains key figures which can be calculated on that basis, such as contribution margin / sales.
- Production managers are more interested in differentiating between different types of costs (variable production costs, setup costs, etc.). The resulting ratios (key figures) are more production oriented, such as setup costs / total cost.
For each group you should define separate key figure schemes.
