Purpose

The Markdown Profile Assignment report makes it possible to assign markdown profiles to materials outside of operational assortment planning and control (purchasing list) in the ERP system.

In the first step, the user initially specifies various selection criteria in order to restrict the set of data to process. Based on the defined criteria, a selection of materials is displayed in the worklist. The user then selects various items in this worklist, by selecting the corresponding lines, and continues on to step 3. In this last step, the existing assignments at the various levels are displayed and can be edited (assuming the user has the necessary authorization). Alternatively, the user can skip step 2 and go directly to assignment of the markdown profiles in step 3.

Integration

Prerequisites

  • Profiles can only be assigned in either SAP SEM or the ERP system. The ERP system contains a Customizing flag to activate markdown profile assignment. This flag must be set. In the default setting, markdown profile assignment in SAP SEM is set.
  • The user must at least have authorization to display the profile assignments.
  • The corresponding BW system has to be specified in Customizing.

Features

1. Data Selection block:

Various data selection options are available to users in the selection screen. Some fields are mandatory when combined with other fields. These conditions are checked by means of event control.

The entry of the distribution chain is mandatory, for instance. In addition, the user has to specify at least one of the following:

  • Hierarchy node and hierarchy ID
  • Material group
  • Material number

The criteria selected by the user are linked with a logical AND operator.

When defining the selection criteria, the user has to make sure that the selection set does not become too large, as this can have a negative impact on both system performance and the manageability of the data.

The maximum number of selected data records can be defined in Customizing. If no value is defined, the number 5000 is used by default.If this number is exceeded, the system outputs a warning message.

From the data selection screen, the user can go to step 2, the worklist, or skip step 2 and go directly to the levels in step 3.

2. Worklist block:

Assuming the user is at least authorized to display the data, all the materials resulting from the selection are displayed in block 2.

The highest level is always displayed - that is, generic material/single material. There is no resolution to variant level. The worklist displays the existing profile assignments at the various levels. If there are differences between the assignments per material and level, this is indicated by a "not equals" sign. If a material and level do not have a profile assignment, the corresponding display field remains blank. If a uniform profile is assigned to a material and a level, this profile is displayed.

After selecting one or more data records, the user can go to step 3

  • (profile assignment) by pressing one of the following buttons: Single/Generic Material, Generic Material/Color, Generic Material/Size, Generic Material/Color/Size.

3. Profile Assignment block:

In this block, depending on the users authorization, the user can display, reassign, delete, or change profiles at the various levels. The mass processing feature enables you to assign a profile to several data records (selected previously) at the same time.

Depending on which level is selected, the block displays either the generic materials and single materials, all colors/sizes for each generic material, or all variants of a generic material.

A value help function is available for choosing the suitable profile.

Before the data is saved, it is subjected to a consistency check with regard to price-only materials and the markdown profiles.

Any problems that occur are recorded in a log, a separate list that opens automatically at the end of the check. A pushbutton is available to display it at any time afterwards.
