Activate Period Planning

 

MONTH_ACTIVE

Period planning can be performed for a business year. Following years may be planned using annual values.

 

Note:

This only applies for the respective execution scheme. By creating multiple schemes that are executed one after the other, period planning may also be used for multiple years.

* from version 3.1:

In combination with constant FD_PLANYEAR, period planning may also be performed within a scheme over multiple years (with period values of the different years still in different satellite rows).

 

Enter X in column Value from to activate MONTH_ACTIVE.

Plan values must be provided by the constants FD_QNTY_MNTH_FIX, FD_QNTY_MNTH_VAR. Indicate the name of the periodic quantity/value fields of the satellite table without the last two digits (these stand for periods 01 to 12).  

The quantity/value fields FD_QNTY_FIX and FD_QNTY_VAR intended for annual planning may not be used.

 

Note:

Not in all cases of application, all 12 periods are used for the entry of plan data and possibly not all corresponding fields are created in the satellite.  In this case, used periods may be entered separated by comma in Value to for MONTH_ACTIVE (otherwise, FP will try to read data for all 12 periods from the satellite).
