FP Allocation Type

ALLOC_TYPE

*effective from version 3.2 (extended to 3.4)

ALLOC_TYPE defines the allocation type of the current planning process. You can directly enter an allocation type in column Value from. This represents an alternative to the field mapping via the constant FD_ALLOC_TYPE.

The following allocation types are available (in brackets: object types that the respective allocation type is available for):

AT        Activities, capacities and prices (KS)

PC       Primary costs (KS, OR, PR, BP)

DA       Activity allocation (KS, OR, PR, BP)

OS       Secondary order settlement (KS, OR, PR, BP)

SK       Statistical key figures (KS, OR, PR, BP, PC)

BD       Budget and Total Costs Planning (OR, PR)

BP       Equivalent to BD

AC       Simple posting with account (PC)

PP       Posting to account & partner profit center (PC)

FA        Posting to account, partner profit center & functional area (PC)

PT        Posting to account, partner center & functional area & company ID (PC)

AA       Posting to balance sheet account (PC)

Special feature for the selection of satellite data: if constants FD_ALLOC_TYPE and ALLOC_TYPE are entered simultaneously in the mapping, only data records whose allocation type in the field FD_ALLOC_TYPE corresponds to the entry in ALLOC_TYPE will be processed. 

Allevo Object: when working with the Allow own object type KX, all plan data will be written into an Allevo own data base table (e.g. /KERN/ACOSP). Here, individual allocation types apply:

AP        Primary costs

AS        Secondary costs

AK        Statistical key figures

Note:

The constant is a mandatory fields required in every FP scheme. These are: · FD_ALLOC_TYPE and/or ALLOC_TYPE, · FD_OBJECT_TYPE and/or OBJECT_TYPE · FD_RECEIVER. See constant OBJECT_TYPE for a list of the available object types.

* New from version 3.4

Using Flexible Planning with posting to Allevo object is defined via new allocation types (see above).
