Smart SAP Assistant

  • Key Concepts: 
    In SAP EPM-BPC Business Planning and Consolidation (BPC), a child is a component of a parent. A parent is an entity that contains multiple components, such as a company, a product, or an account. A child is a component of the parent that can be used to further break down the parent into more specific details. For example, a company may have multiple products, and each product may have multiple accounts. The products would be the children of the company, and the accounts would be the children of the products. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Child components can be used to further break down a parent into more specific details. For example, if you have a company with multiple products, you can create child components for each product to further break down the company into more specific details. You can also create child components for each account within each product to further break down the product into more specific details. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating child components, it is important to ensure that they are properly linked to their parent component. This will ensure that all data associated with the parent component is properly linked to its child components. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all child components are properly labeled so that they can be easily identified and accessed when needed.
