General presentation
Objective of the application
Energy Forecast prices are collected in a BW-IP workbook and then integrated in Manufacturing VC query to calculate the Energy cost for projected months.

There are 2 workbooks concerning Energy Forecast:
The first one ("FL - Energy Forecast") is common for Novecare and SpP and is used to save Energy unit price typed by the users. This is done at plant/activitiy level (activity is ELEC, GAS, STEAM, etc)
Energy unit price is stored in DSO ABCOPC10.
For Novecare, we get the latest Actual price (month M) from the BOM, for each plant/activity, to use as proposed price for future (M+12) months. Then the user can change the prices and save.
For SpP, there is no proposed price because we don't have this level of detail in the BOM in PF1 (by activity type). So we load from the BOM only the plants, then the activities are "artificially" created in BW from the list of commodities in master data C_ENERGY, and the user can input the price.
For SpP, there is a specific process covered by the second workbook ("FL - Energy Forecast - SPP Usage Factor) where the users save the usage factor by plant/H4/product hierarchy.
This is where the process starts for SpP.
Calculation View : CV_FMCO_SP_FORE_UF
Filters:
1- All Material with product Hierarchy : ("0PROD_HIER" != '')
2- "CPFCTR1_2" = 'SP'
3- "C_ENERGY" = 'ELEC' or "C_ENERGY" = 'GAS' or "C_ENERGY" = 'STEAM' or "C_ENERGY" = 'OTHER'
Integrating Energy Cost in the Manufacturing CV for Novecare
In CV_FMCO_MAN_COST_RCS, for each plant/activity from the BOM, we get the forecast price from ABCOPC10 for the subsequent months.
If no forecast is found, Actual data is extrapolated for the future months (same logic as Raw Material Forecast)
