General Questions:

Does COPA03 includes only Level 5 materials or all? Scope?


Material state captured??

Material is a product packaged. It provides the lowest granularity level. One product can be packaged differently that is identified with different material ID 

Important note: In various source tables, product/material are available in various hierarchy. To think how to model in data lake to be manipulated/distinguished easily for various applications. 








Material (name & code)Material is a product packaged. It provides the lowest granularity level. One product can be packaged differently  

Currently is used in COPA03 but to explore the right source

COPA03 

C_MATNR2

 Material Name: Medium name → C_MATNR2 . TXTMD


Material code→ C_MATNR2 . (technical name?)





Material group/Product

(both code & name) 


Non packaged material 

There are two attributes in COPA03 that are merged in one field in the transparency dashboard. One refers to SpP and the other refers to other GBUs. Architect to decide how to design in data lake. 

------

Suggested for data lake design to create 3 fields:
1- Merge of the two in one field (same as what is existing in the transparency dashboard)

Material Group for SP => C_MATNR2. [C_MAT_GRP] Material_Group

Material group other GBUs => C_MATNR2. [C_PROD]  Commercial product / Material Group

2- Material group:

Material Group for SP => C_MATNR2. [C_MAT_GRP] Material_Group


3- Material group other GBUs => C_MATNR2. [C_PROD]  Commercial product / Material Group

COPA03

C_MATNR2. [C_MAT_GRP] Material_Group

C_MATNR2. [C_PROD]  Commercial product / Material Group

Merge of the two attributes in COPA03 in one field in the transparency dashboard

Material Group for SP => C_MATNR2. [C_MAT_GRP] Material_Group

Material group other GBUs => C_MATNR2. [C_PROD]  Commercial product / Material Group


To ask if PF1 and WP1 are different

Product H4 

In the transparency dashboard, H4 and L4 has been merged in one field. H4 is for SpP and L4 for other GBUs.

 In various source tables, product/material are available in various hierarchies. We need to think how to model in the data lake to be manipulated/distinguished easily for various applications.

Suggestion is to make hierarchy an attribute of the product in the target model design (no need to build a hierarchy in the data lake). For each hierarchy consider to have one attribute in the product dimension

Sales&CM H4 mapping

Using material group as an input to map, the output H4 


We have Herarchy 4 in both COPA03 and in Material feed in BW. Is there any specific reason using reference data while the info available at BW?

GURRAM-ext, Naveen

For all GBUs except SPP

[C_MATNR2] Material\Attributes\[C_LIP04] Product line 04 

For spp use the Gsheet



Business line=BU 

In transparency dashboard: 

It is coming from icare (it is only for SpP).

there is no corresponding concept in CORE → it will be empty

(corresponding in CORE might be market cluster → to check?)

SF (ICARE)→ it is not used currently

Product2 . Business_Unit__c

Product2 . Business_Unit__c
Out of scope

GBU product family One product (or material) belongs to a product family per GBU. 

Currently in the transparency dashboard there are various rules based on the GBUs to populate this field. Using COPA03 for this field, the data has been populated at sales level where both product code and GBU are available to return the GBU product family. The challenge is that, there is one product/material sold by more than one GBU that might be given various GBU product family from one GBU to another . It makes it difficult to keep the GBU product family as an attribute of product dimension in the target model to be designed. 

Aligning between all the GBUs might be considered  

COPA03


If GBU = SP then Mapping based on PRODUCT_KEY (from icare)

mapping is : input Product2 . Material_Group__c output Product2 . Family


if either GBU= CS or TS AND SOURCE_SYSTEM_KEY= PF1_020

Material_Product_Hier__LIP03___Key_

[C_MATNR2__C_PRDHIER] Product Hier (LIP03)

Else

if GBU is PA GBR__GBU_Material__Group__Ship_to_ Else Material_Product_Family_Code__Medium_Name_i

Could not find GBU attribute associated to Material only in SAP-BW.  Will be discussing with BW team but if this information is not available we may have to move this transformation at fact table level.


Also there is an attribute product_family_code available in MATNR2 table. Just checking is this same field what we are calculating here?

GURRAM-ext, Naveen comparing BW and transparency data, the product family code in the material table of BW is not the source of this field 



HPAM Product H4 and HPAM are both linked via material group using googlesheet made by transparency team This info is not available in BW (H4 is available in iCare but HPAM is not available to the analyst knowledge)

Exact same mapping product H4

Will bring all the lines from 0..6

To be decide later to add this field or not (Same as GBU product family) 


Excluded from scope

Product line E2E

It is an attribute of material-> C_MATNR2

(to be discussed later) 



[0CRM_PROD] Product Line (E2E)

[0APO_PROD] Arche Type



Name in BW:  Product Line (E2E)

It is filtered by 

Arche_Type_Key<>'#' OR Product_Line__E2E__Key<>'#' (#means not assigned)

Ask Franck

Can you elaborate the transformation logic please?  If Arch_type or Product_line_E2E <> '#' What value should I store/present and if one of them is '#' what should I perform 

GURRAM-ext, Naveen the reason to use Arch type in the transparency is not clear. It might be for a specific application. For the moment it can be descoped for further analysis. 



Packaging type
It is an attribute of material-> C_MATNR2COPA03

Material_Packaging_type__Medium_Name_

[C_MATNR2] Material\Attributes\[C_PACKAG] Packaging type


Please confirm which attribute to source into pricing data lake but both the attributes present in MATNR2

Seems C_PACKAG is related to material package type and C_MATGR2 related to material group package type

GURRAM-ext, Naveen the one in transparency is [C_MATNR2] Material\Attributes\[C_PACKAG] Packaging type



Product hierarchy PIF
define? (somebody from logistic)COPA03

[0PROFIT_CTR__0PROD_HIER] Product Hierarchy PIF_P


Can not find the field. Require more details but for now we are excluding

Product hierarchy 

define? (somebody from logistic)

It is an attribute of the Product L3 (to check in BW)

COPA03Prod_line3___P_hier_Key

C_MATNR2.C_LIP03

We have PROD_HIER field in MATNR2 and COPA03 query. Please confirm if transparency using this attribute?


The one in C_MATRN2

The current requirements in transparency dashboard is only to converting into VKG. 

Ongoing discussion in the requirements (to be discussed later)

[4CPCOPA03-TGB2_C_GBR19] GBR: GBU Material  Group (Ship-to)



Could you confirm how this is liked to material table pls. Is it only through COPA03 query?

GURRAM-ext, Naveen this field is similar to GBU product family. It is unique per combination of GBU and material. Any design solution for GBU product family can be applied in this field.
