SAP Note 541559 - Slow-moving item report

Component : Business Explorer -

Solution : https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/541559 (SAP Service marketplace login required)

Summary :
This SAP Note discusses defining a BEx Query for displaying all characteristic values within a drilldown, including those without transaction data for a specific period. For users of BW 3.x, the solution involves creating a MultiProvider integrating the sales cube and customer InfoObject (e.g., 0CUSTOMER). Users must select the 'Constant Selection' and 'Display Values Not Posted' attributes to manage the display of all customers, including those with no or minimal sales transactions. This configuration ensures that characteristic restrictions that do not exist in the InfoObject provider are ignored while maintaining those that do. The implementation requires specific SAP Frontend Patches.

Key words :
