Summarization Levels in COPA. Tr Code KEDV

Dear All,
I request you to give me some Clarifications on Summarization Levels namely;
1) Are the summarization levels build form Line Items tables(CE1XXXX and CE2XXXX).
2) If so how does it get the field "PLIKZ"(Plan/Actual Indicator) for Plan line items as this field so not part of CE2XXXX, so How is it Updated?
3) Assuming that there are Performance problems even after using Summarization Levels, can you please explain as to how exactly do the Indexs work.?
4) In Indexes, there are 5 Columns with the title "Field", each of the column containing multiple rows, can you please explain what is the use of each of the columns.?
5) i have gone through the OSS Note "83204", in it there is a path(given below) given to download the information on Summarization Levels. However, i was not sure as to how to download it Could you please let me know how to download it.If Possible can you upload the document under "Wiki" or " Articles".
Below is the data and the file path from the note:
===============================================
The document can be downloaded via ftp from the sapserv3 server (binary
transfer mode). The German or English version is stored in directory:
(~ftp/)general/R3server/abap/note.0083204
under the name h83204dt.doc or n83204en.doc.

Hi,
Please follow instructions in note 480180 to download the file. Also for creating index you can refer to note 35288. Together with summarization levels and a proper secondary index you should not face major performace issue. If the performance continues to be bad then you must think about archiving the CE1 or CE4 tables in CO-PA.

How to link summarization level to COPA- KE30 (T CODE) report ?

Hi,
I have created a report (t code KE30) and want to utilise one of the exixting summarization level. When i run the report it reads data from segment level. What settings are needed such that when i run the report it should read data from summarization level and not from segment level? pl advice

COPA Summarization Levels

Hi All,
I have created summarization levels in COPA and when I run the COPA KE30 report with the summarization levels being active or inactive, it produces the same numbers in the Dev system, so no issue there. But in QA system, same summarization levels do not provide the same numbers. The numbers when summarization levels are activated are less than half of the numbers when summarization levels are deactivated. Same problem in the PRD system. I have tried to resolve the issue by creating the summarization levels directly in the PRD system.But the numbers did not match in that case either. The numbers provided by the report when the summarization levels are deactived are less than even half of the numbers when the summarization levels are activated.
I have checked the report parameters in the DEV, QA and PRD systems and they are same.
Please let me know what may be causing this inconsistency.
Can it be because of some basis problem? I mean some memory problem etc which may be causing the summarization tables not to have all the data in QA and PRD systems.

You wouldnt have any message in reports yaar.
Just compare the authorisations in the development system with others.
Also, do one thing., execute transaction SU53 immediately after the report execution, to see for any missing authorisations.

Summarization Levels COPA

Hello all,
I´ve created a Summarization Level using transaction KEDV.
The Summarization Level has still the status "to be created" in KEDV, even when I safe it, it does not change the status, so the tables are not built.
When I try to update/ built/ rebuilt the level by using KEDU, it says it is not possible, because of the status "to be created".
How can I change the status and built the tables for the summarization level?
Thanks for your answers,
Michael

Try using the program "RKETREGN" to build.

How to "active" copa summarization level ????

Hello:
    I create COPA summarization level in R3 .When I save the level, the system generates these tables and sets the status to "active, without data".I need to fill the level with data, at which time the status changes to "active".But I don't know how to do it !
Thanks for your help!
   lian

Dear Consultants, Learner & Readers,
The problem with changing the status of a summarization level from "To be created" into "Active, without data" in a system that is not open for customizing can indeed be solved by execution of program RKETREGN as it's described in attached SAP Note 52636.
I quote from the note:
If you have created summarization levels, the tables generated are not also transported. To create the tables in the target system, start report RKETREGN (Summarization Levels: Generate Tables for Summarization Levels) in the target system. Enter 'KE'     for application, '01' for sub-application and 'CE1xxxx' for TABNAME (Replace xxxx with your operating concern). If the program does not run, then the program terminates with error message KE707 when building summarization levels
I hope this answers your query. Else do not hesitate to get back for more clarifications.

What is COPA- Summarization Level

hi
COPA- Summarization Level
can u give me some theory for this
and also what is filed partation in co-pa while creating datasource its aksing?
regards
suneel.

A summarization level stores an original dataset in a reduced form. This original dataset
describes the individual profitability segments in terms of the amount of characteristics each has.
Summarization means that selected characteristics are left out. Any segments in the original
dataset that are now identical through having had characteristics removed are combined into a
single pseudo-segment in the summarization level.
From the technical point of view, a summarization consists of two tables that have just been
generated, the key table and the totals table. Key table corresponds to the segment table and
contains the pseudo-segments produced from the reduced characteristics. The totals table
corresponds to the segment level and contains the associated value fields.
The summarization levels can be used in a number of different areas in Profitability Analysis:
The information system Drilldown Reporting
To find the tracing factor for cost center assessment
Manual planning
Automatic planning
Transfer to Sales and Operations Planning (SOP)

Building summarization levels for reporting

Hi All,
Our system is very slow to execute COPA reports. I am willing to create summarization levels.
1. I let the system create a proposal
2. I created hiearchy levels
3. I uploaded the levels with data
4. I checked whether reports are reading hierarchy level
I am a little bit confused how this summarization level is intedted to work. I tested the summarization. It works by 1-2 reports, but not for the rest.
So my question is, when a summarization level is applicable for a report?
For examle, if I summarize for customer... and in the report I have characteristics customer... does the system takes this summarization level or not? If in general I need customer in all of our reports as characteristics, I won´t be able to use summarization level for customer?

I am looking somehow for similar answer.
When the system does proposal for sum. levels why the created levels are not used.
For your information. If you have just created new reports and hope to get them speed up it might not work properly.
When you use the proposal of levels the system analysis the ones last used. If some reports are used not often they might not be considered.
So you need to watch and fine tune it.
I noticed that the index which is important to access the level, does not really match our criteria. The sum. level might have the right data but not very good index.
Further you could check the usage of fixed characteristics. For example you copy a simple sum. level with certain data and you add fixed characteristics. Example, company code 01.
But the magical question when it is utilized is also open. Don't forget to activate the usage of sum. levels in the report attributes itself.

'*' in Summarization Levels for CO-PA

Hi All,
What is the role of table "TKETRLF" in Account based CO-PA. When I try to check the CO-PA Datasource it is giving me an error. I tried to debug it and see where exactly is the problem. I found that the standard program is trying to read the data from the above said table and becoz of not finding the required data it is not picking up the summarisation level and throwing the error.
The table has got all the fields from the summarization levels and a flag(0,1,2...) which says if it is a summarization characteristic/user defined characteristic etc. The fields with out a '*' in KEDV has '0' as the flag. If the program finds the flag as '0' for any of the field in one summarization level then it is ignoring that level.
Since I have atleast one field with out a '*' in each of my summarization levels, it is not picking up the summarization level and throwing an error saying "No Source could be found".
This is very urgent...Please someone help me...
Thanks,
RPk.

Hi,
I have the same problem, and I find SAP Note Note 1069507 - BI Extraction : 'Errors occurred during the extraction'. This is for version 5.0, probably it help you, but in my case I am working in ECC 6.0.

CO-PA Summarization Level

Hi,
I am very unclear about summarization levels in CO-PA. Please can any one explain me what is the real significance of summarization level, why do we need it and steps to configure it, and on what logic is data extracted from it.
Thank you,
Sam

1. What is use of summarizattion in COPA?
summarization level in Profitability Analysis (CO-PA):
A summarization level is a tool for improving performance.
Summarization levels store an original dataset in summarized form. This gives quick access to presummarized data for functions that do not need detailed information, and means that the data does not need to be summarized separately each time.
you can check this in this link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ae/bd116e940f11d2b63c0000e82debc6/frameset.htm
2. If we dont give summarization in COPA Account based will records be available in RSA3 - yes
2. How to create summarization level for a datasource?
You can do this in Transaction - KCDU/KCDV or SPRO
Hope it helps.

No summarization level exists for cycle 261001_KEU5

Dear experts!
Now, I'm getting some issue about performing t.code KEU5.
The first, I create cycle with t.code KEU1 with receive tracing factor rule is Variable portions.
Second, I run the cycle with t.code KEU5 then the system display warring message:
No summarization level exists for cycle 261001
Message no. GA790
Diagnosis
The tracing factors for cycle 261001 cannot be read from a summarization level.
This message is displayed when executing a periodic allocation of overhead costs (assessment, indirect activity allocation) if portions are used as tracing factors in at least one segment. It is designed to make you aware of potential improvement in performance which is not being used.
If variable portions are used as tracing factors, the distribution factors are determined from the object level (table CE3xxxx/CE4xxxx, xxxx=operating concern). If there is a large amount of data at object level, selection can take a long time. The summarization levels can be used to pre-summarize the transaction data, resulting in a drastic reduction in runtimes for periodic allocations.
System Response
The tracing factor is determined from the object level. This does not alter the result of periodic allocation, but the runtime can be lengthy.
Procedure
For large data volumes, define a summarization level in the object level in order to improve performance.
For more information, see the program documentation and the customizing functions, which include a form for defining an appropriate summarization level for periodic allocation.
Help me, please!

Hi
Its just a warning message saying that cycle execution time can be more in the absnce of Summ level
You can create summ levels from ORKE > Tools > Summ Levels

Summarization Levels are active but no update

Hi all,
For Account based COPA I have summarization levels that are active and shows 25000 summarization records. However there are 0 records in UPDATE. In RSA3 i am also getting 0 records. How can I resolve this?
Cheers

Had to delete and recreate the datasource

Summarization Levels

Hi,
Can anybody explain what Summarization levels do in easy words? I know it works for COPA module, however, I am not sure what exactly it checks in the system? And why it takes so long to run ?
thank you
Roger

Hi,
In CO-PA, the system collects all the data at the line item level. This can lead to a huge amount of data within a very short time of operations. Consequently, you may experience huge runtime when running a report which displays data summarized to a high degree but has to read the entire dataset.
In order to improve runtimes, it is necessary to reduce the volume of data which has to be read online. This can be achieved by creating summarized versions of the dataset. The data can be summarized as -
1. First decide the summarized levels
2. Fill the summarization levels with data
3. Update the levels with new line items.
Mostly at summarized level, periodic update of data happens.

Summarisation levels in copa

dear sap gurus,
can any explain me how summarisation levels in copa are useful.if any one has documentation on this pls forward to [email protected]
regards,
siva

Hi Sivasai
COPA summarization levels are defined to optimize the system performance. The uses which I could understand are as follows
1) You must have defined characteristics required in COPA reporting. Now u can summarize COPA reports at a particular characteristic level - System sums up the value fields and populates considers the summarized values at level chosesn for summarization
2) When u do create planning layouts - here u define layouts whereve u enter plan values for sales qty, values, costs etc at ind product level or at product hierarchy level. If u plan at hierarchy level u must hv defined the basis of distribution. This takes care of detailed planning. Now if u wish to transfer COPA sales plan values to SOP - u can either transfer at product level or total level. Here u can define separate summarization level so that system consdiers the plan values and posts to SOP
3) Similarly u can do this for cost center assessments too
4) Before u do summarization levels u need to execute programme RKETRERU in SE38. On running this programme the user defined levels are considered for summarization
Its an optional choice - depending on the number of products, complexity of planning, and other factors
Appreciate if someone in the forum can add their views on the above subject
Hope the above clarifies - pls assign points as a way to say thanks
