Consolidation of Investments (COI):

The consolidation of investment deals with elimination of ownership and booking of minority interest of
these investments. Three methods are commonly used in consolidation of investments: the purchase,
equity, and proportional methods.

The purchase method is generally used when the percentage of ownership is greater than 50%.
The equity method is generally used when the percentage of ownership is less than 50%.
The proportional method is similar to the purchase method and is generally used in Europe.

Loading Data into SAP BPC:

Two types of data exist in SAP BPC: master data and transaction data. Master data is stored in a
dimension, and transaction data is stored in a model. Although both the master data and transaction data
can be manually entered into SAP BPC, it may not be feasible to adopt this approach for large volumes of
data. To automate the process of loading master data and transaction data, SAP BPC provides the following options:

Flat file:
When this option is selected, master or transaction data can be loaded into a dimension or a
model from a flat file. The flat file is the most flexible method to load data into an SAP BPC model.
In this case, the flat file is staged in the BPC server system folder before it is loaded into the
model.

InfoProvider in SAP NetWeaver BW:

In SAP BPC for NetWeaver, you can leverage the data in an InfoProvider in the SAP NetWeaver
BW system. You can use an InfoObject as the source to load master data and hierarchy data into
a dimension. You can use an InfoCube or DataStore object (DSO) as source to load data into an
SAP BPC model.

Transformation File:
The transformation file specifies the definitions used to interpret data coming from an external source
before loading it into an SAP BPC dimension or model. SAP BPC provides the interface to create and
maintain transformations in an Excel file. The transformation file includes three sections:

Options
Mapping
Conversion

Options:
The Options section contains the options you want to use when interpreting the data from the external
source. You can specify the following options in the Options section:
Option
AmountDecimalPoint=<value>

Default Value
0

ConvertAmountDim=<dim_name>

Account

CREDITPOSITIVE= YES|NO

YES

FORMAT=DELIMITED/ FIXED/VARIANT
DELIMITER

Comma

HEADER=YES/NO

YES

Description
This option specifies the
character to represent a decimal
point.
This option can specify a
dimension for amount
calculations.
A formula should exist in the
conversion file for the value
specified here for the calculation
to work.
If this option is set to NO, all
credit accounts (of type
Liability/Owners Equity and
Income) will have a negative sign
in the source file.
This is a required parameter.
It specifies the format of the data
in the input file.
This option is applicable when
the format option is set as
DELIMITED. This option is
relevant when loading data
directly from a file.
Specify a value that matches the
format of the input file.
If the file includes a header row
with column names, set the value
of this option to YES.
When a header is included, the
column names in the header can
be referred in the Mapping
section of the transformation file
to map the column names to the

technical name of the target

dimension of the model.
This option is used for validating
the data from the external source
and indicates the number of
rejected records that can be
tolerated before the validation
process ends.
An empty string represents 500
records.
A value of -1 indicates that
processing should continue no
matter how many rejected
records are encountered.
A positive value indicates the
number of rejected records
allowed before processing will
end.
This option will remove the value
specified by <text> from the
records.
This is useful when certain
pieces of text are not required
when loading the data from an
external source.
This option rounds amount fields
to the value specified in this
option.
The value for this option should
be an integer number.
This option skips the specified
number of records from the top of
the file.
The value should be an integer
number.
When text is specified for this
option, a line will be skipped from
the data file if it begins with the
specified value.
More than one text value can be
specified when using this option,
separated by the pipe delimiter.
This option is relevant only when
extracting data from an
InfoProvider in SAP NetWeaver
BW.
The dimension name is the name
of the InfoObject used in the
cube.
The dimension value is the value
for the InfoObject to be used
when extracting the data.
This option is useful when you
need to selectively extract data
from an InfoCube.
Assuming a particular InfoCube

FORMULA=

CONVERT_ INTERNAL=YES|NO

includes two InfoObjects,

Account and Material, the
following selection will restrict the
data into SAP BPC for the COGS
account and the M1 material:
SELECTION= 0ACCOUNT,
COGS; 0MATERIAL, M1.
A dimension can include a
formula property to use in
calculations.
SAP BPC provides functions that
can be used in formulas. They
are referred to as K2 functions.
When functions are used in
dimension formulas, the library
file that includes these functions
is specified here.
A conversion sheet can be used
for each dimension to convert
values coming from an external
DataSource.
The conversion sheet can have
an internal value and an external
value for a dimension member.
The external value is the data
coming from the external system.
The internal value is how it would
be stored in SAP BPC. When this
is set, the external value will be
converted to the internal value
when loading data.
This option indicates whether the
dimension member names
should be compared with the
internal names. This should be
always set to No.

Documents:
We can create and share unstructured data such as documents and URLs within SAP BPC systems.
Audit:
The audit functionality in SAP BPC system provides the framework for monitoring changes to model
configuration and data.
Activity audit: This audit type is used to record changes to metadata

Logics in SAP BPC:
Logics allow us to define formulas that perform calculations on SAP BPC data.
There are three types of logics in SAP BPC:
Front-End

Worksheet logic (Excel & VBA)

On-the-Fly

Dimension Member Formulas (MDX)

Stored output

Script logic (SQL or MDX syntax)

Business Rules (Table Driven)
Badi (ABAP)
Allocation Engine

Worksheet Logic:

Any calculation/formula done on the BPC excel can be termed as worksheet logic.

For example, fetching data through EVGTS, or doing some mathematical calculations
using native excel formulas (local member formula).

Worksheet logic includes the functions provided by BPC, plus the native functions of Excel
itself.

Dimension Logic:

Any calculation and formula done on the dimension can be termed as dimension logic.
Calculations are performed as per the dimension formula at retrieval time.
It is important to use the dimension formulas correctly as they can affect the system
performance if used incorrectly.

Script Logic:
