Question #: 9
Topic #: 1
What are some of the prerequisites for configuring a planning area that results in a successful consistency check? Note: There are 2 correct answers to this question.
A.
Configure at least one calculated key figure for the planning area
B.
Specify a planning horizon in the planning area for each level of the assigned time profile
C.
Configure at most two input key figures on the same planning level in a key figure calculation
D.
Assign the compound master data type and its component master data types
A successful consistency check in SAP IBP ensures the planning area’s configuration is valid, per SAP IBP’s documentation.
Option A: Configure at least one calculated key figure for the planning areaThis is incorrect. Calculated key figures are optional; a planning area can function with only stored key figures.
Option B: Specify a planning horizon in the planning area for each level of the assigned time profileThis is correct. The planning horizon (e.g., past/future periods) must align with the time profile levels (e.g., week, month) for data consistency, a prerequisite, per SAP IBP’s setup.
Option C: Configure at most two input key figures on the same planning level in a key figure calculationThis is incorrect. There’s no such limit; calculations can use multiple inputs, depending on complexity.
Option D: Assign the compound master data type and its component master data typesThis is correct. Compound types (e.g., SOURCECUSTOMER) and their components (e.g., Customer, Location) must be assigned for network consistency, per SAP IBP’s documentation.
Thus, B and D are prerequisites, per SAP IBP’s official consistency check requirements.
