General presentation

Objective of the application

P&L

P&L application provides reports fully aligned with BFC structure (BFC Headings) down to REBIT/REBITDA able to analyze P&L starting from the BFC view (Company/Activity) and ability to drill down to Customer Material level.

 A profit and loss statement (P&L) is a financial statement that summarizes the revenues, costs and expenses incurred during a specific period of time, usually a fiscal quarter or year.

 These records provide information about a company's ability – or lack thereof – to generate profit by increasing revenue, reducing costs, or both.

It was done in 2 phases :

Phase 1 : COPA model of Rhodia legacy (RCS)
Phase 2 :

IM

Integrated Margin is linked with P&L data and providers BW and BO reports with details of the calculation of the integrated costs

Reporting coordinator is Sandrine Micollet.

Usage information

More than 500 users have access to WC applications. Those users are worldwide and most of them are controllers.

History

P&L was done in 2015 and IM in 2016

Functional and Technical rules on Workbench + Reporting

Rules & Explanations

Functional rules

Rhodia legacy


Value Fields

The organization determination must be as flexible and as dynamic as possible. We had to consider 2 cases:


Solvay legacy data

BFC Data

CICC

Below Gross Margin

Non ERP companies

Systems involved

Organisation

Technical rules

P&L WP1

We have 2 steps in the business layer.

From the propagation layer, we transpose data from DPCOPA01 to DBCOPA01.

In DPCOPA01, each value field is in a dedicated key figures. Objective of the transposition, we have 1 key figure and 1 field in key (called Value Field) to  identify them.

After the transposition, we split data in 2 target DSO: DBCOPA02 and DBCOPA03.
As we have common rules for both DSO, we use an Info source to have those rules inside an unique transformation.

BFC

FIAP data re also be used for SPRINT (Purchasing) and CAPEX (Project costs) applications.

Net due date management:

The net due date is managed at the document item level and is calculated in the ERP. A new net due date managed manually has been set in each system.
It's available in ZZF_BSEG table.

For each system we created a new data source based on this table and a dedicated DSO (DPFIWC01 to 04).
In BW, there is a direct loading between Net due date DSO and Business layer DSO and also a look-up between Propagation and Business layers to read DPFIWC DSO.

Reclassification of Sub-Activity C_SUBACT2:

In the ERP, when a profit center or a business area is set, it's not possible to modify it later.
In order to resolve that issue, mecanisms have been created in the ERP.

In WP1

Documents can be modified in ZWFAT205 table (transaction ZWFAT205).
In the example below, document has been modified with a different profit center:

This table is loaded in DSO_FI11 in BW and data are updated in Business layer DSO.

In PF1 and PI1

In PI1 system, the mecanism is different and is not managed document by document, like in WP1.
It's done in PI1 (for PI1 and PF1) through data source ZZFCM_BU_EXCEPTIONS_NEW.

This table is loaded in DBFIWC01 DSO in BW.

Between Propagation and Business layers, we read this DSO to determine the new business area.

For example, document for company code 0005 and business area 3240, the new business area will be 8500.

Rhodia legacy rules:

Initial loading was done from existing DSO ODSFIAP1 and not from WP1 system due to archived document not loadable anymore.

A split of data is done between propagation and business DSO (DPFIAP01 and DBFIAP01), in the start routine inside program z_start__dpfiap01__dbfiap01.

The split is also done in WP1 system, in ZWFAT123 table. This table is filled in WP1 when the data source 0FI_AP_4 is launched. The data are retrieved in ODS_FIWC.

Solvay legacy rules:

A split of data is done between propagation and business DSO (DPFIAP02 and DBFIAP02) but the mecanism and the logic is much more simple.

We split data using DPFIGL02 DSO (FIGL data) for document with reference procedure RMRP (Invoice receipt) with detail by material, plant, purchase order number and item.

We calculate the item's quote part in FIGL and apply this quote part on amount from FIAP document. For the last splitted item, amount is the total amount minus the sum of other splitted lines.

For CICC, there isn't specific rule.

Acetow legacy rules:

The same split that Solvay legacy is done.

FIGL fata flow

Common rules:

In business layer, we filter to keep posting on account types S (G/L Account) and M (Materials)

Rhodia legacy rules:

We continue to use ODSFIGL3. This DSO is very huge so it would have been to long to load other DSO and it would be to heavy in WBP system.

A split of data is done between propagation and business DSO (ODSFIGL1 and ODSFIGL3), in the start routine of the transformation.

The split is also done in WP1 system, in ZWFAT143 table. This table is filled in WP1 when the data source 0FI_GL_4 is launched. The data are retrieved in ODSFIGL2.
