• Key Concepts: 
  Cumulative load is a term used in SAP Supply Chain Planning and Control (SCM-SCP). It is a method of loading data into the system that accumulates the data over time. This means that each time new data is loaded, it is added to the existing data, rather than replacing it. This allows for a more accurate representation of the current state of the system. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Cumulative load can be used in SAP SCM-SCP to ensure that the system is always up-to-date with the latest data. To use cumulative load, first select the data that needs to be loaded into the system. Then, select the “cumulative load” option when loading the data. This will ensure that the new data is added to the existing data, rather than replacing it. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using cumulative load, it is important to ensure that all of the necessary data is included in each load. If some of the data is missing, then it will not be added to the existing data and could lead to inaccurate results. Additionally, it is important to remember that cumulative load only works with certain types of data; if you are unsure whether or not your data can be loaded using cumulative load, consult your SAP administrator for assistance.
