KF defaulting to multiple sources, both defined at more granular planning levels

Question

Hello Experts,
I hope this will be an easy one for you Personally, I have been trying to figuring out how to overcome this issue and I must admit that I am short of solution.
So here is the situation:
I have two sets of data for my actual sales :
- First one is loaded at planning level @ Period | Product | National Group | Point of Sales(POS)
- The other is loaded @ Period | Product | National Group | Ship-To Party
To get a valid portrait of my actual sales, I must compare these two sets of data at a common planning level (i.e. @ Period | Product | National Group).
Then, the adjusted result must be "re"disaggregated @ Period | Product | National Group | Point of Sales, the base planning level used to forecast. 
Based on what I could understand from SAP2 model, I created the following key figures:
ActualsQtyPOS : Stored at base planning level @PERPRODNATPOS and calculated @PERPRODNAT. Here are the 2 calculation definitions I used:
ActualsQtyPOS@REQUEST = SUM ("ActualsQtyPOS@ERPRODNATPOS")
ActualsQtyPOS@PERPRODNAT = SUM ("ActualsQtyPOS@ERPRODNATPOS")
ActualsQtyShipTo : Stored at base planning level @PERPRODNATSHIPTO and calculated @PERPRODNAT. Defined with this calculation:
ActualsQtyShipTo@REQUEST = SUM ("ActualsQtyShipTo@PERPRODNATPOS")
ActualsQtyShipTo@PERPRODNAT = SUM ("ActualsQtyShipTo@PERPRODNATPOS")
AdjustedActualsQty : Created at base planning level @PERPRODNAT. This KF must be stored and editable. The value must be defaulted to ActualsQtyPOS@PERPRODNAT, unless no data exist (then, default to ActualsQtyShipTo@PERPRODNAT).
AdjustedActualsQty@REQUEST=SUM ("AdjustedActualsQty@PERPRODNAT")
AdjustedActualsQty@PERPRODNAT=IF(ISNULL("AdjustedActualsQty@PERPRODNAT"),IF(ISNULL("ActualsQtyPOS@PERPRODNAT"),"ActualsQtyShipTo@PERPRODNAT","ActualsQtyPOS@PERPRODNAT"),"AdjustedActualsQty@PERPRODNAT").
My issue : I tried several (and I mean several!) configuration possibilities. So far, the best result that I got was to default the good value in AdjustedActualsQty based on the calculation rule above. But my core problem persists: I am not able to edit manually the defaulting value and save the new value in the database.
Based on my comprehension, the problem would be related to ActualsQtyPOS and ActualsQtyShipTo Key Figures. Both are stored at a more granular planning level, and then calculated @PERPRODNAT level. In addition to storing them at their base planning level, would it be possible to store the aggregated results at a higher level (@PERPRODNAT)? This way, I would be able to use them as stored input in AdjustedActualsQty@PERPRODNAT calculation and duplicate the AdjustedActualsQty KF used in SAP2.
Any help would be greatly appreciate.
(I tried to summarize the best I can, don't hesitate if you need more details on some points.)
Best regards

Hi Philippe
you dont  need access to HANA, it is pure config
Go to Configuration -> Miscellanious --> Manage Planning Operator
If not existing yet, create a new type by clicking on teh white "sheet" symbole "create new" on the right side.
In the popup enter the EXACT name COPY (not more than one possible):
Provide info for "Add Job Procedure" and "Schedule Procedure":
Add Job Procedure = "SAP_SFND"."sap.sop.sopfnd.catalogue::SOPAPI_OPERATOR_SCHEDULER_JOB_ADD"
Schedule Procedure = "SAP_SFND"."sap.sop.sopfnd.catalogue::SOPAPI_EXECUTE_SCHEDULER_COPY_JOB"
Than add you operator lines by clicking on the plus symbol
with the following parameter:
DURATION
PERIOD_OFFSET
SOURCE_KFID1
SOURCE_KFID2
DURATION: e.g. 24 if you want to copy 24 months
PERIOD_OFFSET: e.g. 0 when you want to copy starting current months, or -1 if you want to start previous months
SOURCE_KFID1: starting keyfigure FROM which you copy. MUST NOT have any UoM or currency conversion
TARGET_KFID1: your target keyfigure. UoM or currency conversion in here is allowed
You could have SOURCE_KFID2 and TARGET_KFID2 as well. And you can have more than just one line.
Flag the batch and filter mode flags, but not interactive (not supported yet)
Provide a useful DESCRIPTION as that is seen by the users
Make sure that not too many users get the authoriozation for it as if you execute that withiout a filter accidentially it does not only change all values, but if you run more than one at a time that migt get to conflicts. Like normal batch jobs: You usually give admins or power users access
It copies on the very lowest possible level. You cannot tell the system as in APO-DP to copy on an aggregated level. PLus, source and target kf must have the same planning level. So you may copy from a calculated kf that does the calculation on the level of the target kf
Dont have any docu, sorry. Hope that helps
Yours
