Documentation
Definition
Key for distributing plan values on periods according to various criteria (analog, equal, and so on).
There is a difference between true distribution keys and input help. When you distribute a plan value on periods using a true distribution key, you always get the originally entered overall plan value by adding up the period values. If you use the input help, this originally entered value can change.
Use
You can define distribution keys at every level in hierarchy maintenance which are then used as default values in manual planning.
- If the distribution key is included in the planning layout as a field, you can overwrite the default from the planning hierarchy. Planning values are distributed using the distribution key in the planning hierarchy as long as the key is not overwritten.
- If the distribution key is not included in the planning layout as a field, the distribution key is always used for distribution from the planning hierarchy.
There are two different types of distribution keys:
- Distribution keys that are used with planning layouts. The period field without fiscal year (3-character periods) is used for the key.
- Distribution keys that are used with planning layouts. The period field with fiscal year (7-character periods) is used for the key.
A field within hierarchy maintenance is available in both situations.
Standard Distribution Key
Standard distribution keys are predefined distribution keys that begin with a number.
- 0 manual distribution (Entry help)
This distribution key is automatically set when you enter a period value in the period screen, but you can also use it in the overview screen.
- 1 Equal distribution
The entry value is distributed equally across all periods.
For example, entry value 10,000
Period Value after
1 2500
2 2500
3 2500
4 2500
--------
10000
- 2 Analog distribution
The distribution of the entry value is executed by the system just as for the previous distribution.
For example, entry value 20,000
Period Value before Value after Percentage
1 2000 4000 20 %
2 4000 8000 40 %
3 3000 6000 30 %
4 1000 2000 10 %
-------- -------- -------
10000 20000 100 %
- 3 Percentage-based distribution (Entry help)
The entry value is interpreted as a percentage rate and multiplied each period by the previous value.
For example, entry value 50 (%)
Period Value before Value after
1 1000 500
2 2000 1000
3 3000 1500
4 4000 2000
-------- -------
10000 5000
- 4 Distribute values in subsequent periods (entry help)
Periods with contents not equal to zero are distributed on subsequent empty periods.
For example:
Period Value before Value after
1 4000 1000
2 0 1000
3 0 1000
4 0 1000
5 6000 3000
6 0 3000
-------- --------
10000 10000
- 5 Copy values in subsequent empty periods (entry help)
Periods with contents not equal to zero are copied to subsequent empty periods.
For example:
Period Value before Value later
1 4000 4000
2 0 4000
3 0 4000
4 0 4000
5 6000 6000
6 0 6000
2 -------- --------
10000 28000
- 6 Carry forward individual value (entry help)
The period value entered is copied in the subsequent periods.
This distribution key only makes sense for period screens where the distribution key is offered by the system. The distribution key has no effect for cumulative values.
For example:
Period Value before Entry value Value after
1 1000 1000
2 1000 2000 2000
3 1000 2000
4 1000 3000 3000
5 1000 3000
6 1000 3000
------- --------
6000 14000
- 7 Distribution analog to the number of calendar days per period
The distribution of the entry value is carried out in line with the number of calendar days per period.
For example, entry value 12,000
Period Month Value after
1 Jan 3100
2 Feb 2800
3 Mar 3100
4 Apr 3000
--------
12000
- 11 Based on actual data from year before
Entry values are distributed using the actual data from the previous year. - 12 Based on actual data from year before last
Entry values are distributed using the actual data from the year before last. - 13 Based on actual data 3-year average
Entry values are distributed using the actual data taken from an average of the past three years.
Note that manual planning performance can be reduced greatly if this distribution key is used.
The standard distribution keys 0, 3, 4, 5 and 6 are entry helps. If the task requires a true distribution key, you are not allowed to use these distribution keys.
If you want use descriptive names for the standard distribution keys, you can create user-defined distribution keys that refer to the standard distribution keys.
User-Defined Distribution Keys
In addition to the standard distribution keys, you can create user-defined distribution keys by using a relative factor for each period. The entry value is distributed on the plan periods in line with these factors.
For example, entry value 10,000
Period Factor Value later Percentage
1 30 1500 15 %
2 60 3000 30 %
3 70 3500 35 %
4 40 2000 20 %
----- -------- -------
200 10000 100 %
