General Description

The Key Closing Steps reported represent key intermediate Steps in the monthly closing. They are split by range of time (= status) : Early or On Time, Late and Not Available
  • Split of timely and late completion of key intermediate closing steps for the selected month
  • Status by Month
  • Details : based on the selected period, capability to see each Closing step by Legal Entities, Region and Countries. An important note: For all the "Actual Columns", it refers to Schedule Manager inside SAP. All days/times for Schedule Manager are based on Brussels Central Time. Therefore, Closing Steps which are based on BO or FtO local times are shown adjusted to match when they would have ran on Brussels Central Time. Key steps which come from other sources are also adjusted to accurately compare to the Target time.
Closing steps based on SC Time:

BFC Upload: This is when the uploaded from SAP (PF1 or WP1) into BFC

BOIC Upload: This is when BOIC is uploaded from SAP (PF1 or WP1)

Final Cycle Run: This is when the final assessment/allocation cycles are completed successfully for the month. It is only the final run; if the cycles have been ran and reversed only the last rerun is the actual completion to compare to target completion time

MM/AP Closing (MMRV): This is closing of A/P in SAP. No further Goods Receipts against POs are done after closing AP

Cycles Test Run: This is the monthly test run of cycles to identify any issues ahead of the closing

Closing steps based on FtO Time:

On Time or Early
Status if the closing step was performed within 15 minutes of the target time in the global calendar
Late
Status if the closing step was performed more than 15 minutes after the target time in the global calendar
Not Avalaible
In most cases, not available means that the closing step is not following the standard process and performed inside Schedule Manager. In some instances, this status means we are waiting some development before it will be available.  In these cases, there will be comments provided
