How to check the correction

Corrections are made with the origin flow = CORR_DEST

Once you load the file in BW, it is immediatly populated in the query BW and the day after in the Co$ta - Dashboard. Make sure you have enough time to check the query BW before it is populated in the dashboard. Do not load the file in the evening and then check the result the day after !






What shall you do if there was a mistake in your file ?


You need to reload the same file with the new values. For instance if you load a file with the following posting: 

Cost elementValue
98xxxxxxx100
98xxxxxxx-100

But you realize that the posting is wrong you wanted to do the opposite then you should correct your file with the right posting and reload as below: 

Cost elementValue
98xxxxxxx-100
98xxxxxxx100

If you want to cancel the posting, then enter the following file

Cost elementValue
98xxxxxxx0
98xxxxxxx0
