Boundaries - Details


  • Key Concepts: Boundaries in SAP BusinessObjects Profitability and Cost Management (EPM-PCM) are used to define the scope of a profitability analysis. They are used to define the range of data that will be included in the analysis, such as a specific product line, customer segment, or geographic region. Boundaries can also be used to limit the data to a specific time period or to exclude certain types of data from the analysis.
    How to use it: To use boundaries in EPM-PCM, first select the type of boundary you want to create. This could be a product line, customer segment, geographic region, or other type of boundary. Then enter the parameters for the boundary, such as the start and end dates for a time period boundary or the product codes for a product line boundary. Finally, save the boundary and apply it to your profitability analysis.
    Tips & Tricks: When creating boundaries in EPM-PCM, it is important to make sure that they are as specific as possible. This will ensure that only relevant data is included in the analysis and that irrelevant data is excluded. It is also important to remember that boundaries can be combined with each other to create more complex analyses.
