This Data Flow Specification (DFS) defines the end-to-end data flow required to meet the following requirements:
The models below are designed for
Can remove the measures for alternate currency /quantity as we will not use these as per KDD047 Universal parallel Ledgers. But then how does this fit in with currency roles?
Reporting is done in tons so store rather than calc. Where if we dont persist again
Probably the same for value at bud rate
A consolidated view of all the Requirements, KPIs and the supplying views covered by this DFS.
Overview:
GL transactions grouped by GL Accounts as defined by a particular Account Hierarchy
Based on Business Content
Recreates the S/4 model in a more logical fashion that in S/4 (removes the hard coding in the CDS views)
Differs in some way to the Functional Area Semantic Tag model
Purpose:
Simplified reporting using semantic tags
This flow will be shared with other POD's

Logic / Adjustments:
Union:
Purpose: Combine planned and unplanned downtime into a single reusable downtime fact.
Union of: 3VR_A2DAMM_UnplannedDownTime & 3VR_A2DAMM_PlannedDownTime
Target Field Mapping:
- Technical Object fields aligned across both sources.
- Downtime duration stored in hours (conversion applied where required).
No aggregation is performed at this stage.
Datamodel, calculations and associations.
Projection before union. Two objectives:
Create a shared downtime schema.
Standardise time fields
Planned: map scheduled basic start/end into StartDateTime, EndDateTime
Unplanned: map malfunction start/end into StartDateTime, EndDateTime
Common fields
Supports:
Includes technical details for:
| Report Field Description | SAP Table-Field Name / process | Comments / Calculation / Formula / Restriction dimensions and values | Aggregation of data | Example SAP field data |
| Notification Count | Process: constant 1 per notification row in unplanned projection | Counts maintenance notifications used in the unplanned side of the downtime fact. Supports: (a) Loss Driver # notifications per asset (ERP-1012) where required in dashboards, (b) general notification volume analysis. Implemented as 1 per row sourced from I_PMNotifMaintenanceData (notification grain). | SUM | 1 |
| Breakdown Notification Count | Process: CASE WHEN I_PMNotifMaintenanceData.MaintenanceObjectIsDown = 'X' THEN 1 ELSE 0 END | Counts only notifications where the object was truly down (breakdown). Used to restrict unplanned downtime views and support breakdown frequency analyses. | SUM | 1 / 0 |
| Downtime Duration (Seconds, Unplanned) | I_PMNotifMaintenanceData.MaintObjectDowntimeDuration | Raw downtime duration in seconds for unplanned breakdown events. Base measure for unplanned downtime calculations (hours) and Loss Driver (# breakdown hours). | SUM | 7200 |
| Downtime Hours (Unplanned) | Calculated: I_PMNotifMaintenanceData.MaintObjectDowntimeDuration / 3600 | Normalized unplanned downtime in hours derived from raw seconds. | SUM | 2 |
| Planned Order Count | Process: constant 1 per planned order row in planned projection | Counts planned maintenance orders included in the planned side of the downtime fact (e.g., by MaintenanceOrderType and/or MaintenanceOrderPlanningCode rules). | SUM | 1 |
| Planned Window Seconds | Calculated: (ScheduledBasicEndDateTime - ScheduledBasicStartDateTime) from SAP_PM_HL_MaintOrder date/time fields | Planned outage window duration in seconds, derived from scheduled basic start/end of the maintenance order. | SUM | 14400 |
| Planned Window Hours | Calculated: PlannedWindowSeconds / 3600 | Normalized planned downtime window in hours derived from scheduled basic dates/times. | SUM | 4 |
| Unified Downtime Hours | Calculated: CASE WHEN SourceType = 'NOTIF' THEN DowntimeHours(Unplanned) ELSE PlannedWindowHours END | Core downtime measure in the unified fact: - SourceType='NOTIF': uses unplanned downtime hours - SourceType='ORDER': uses planned downtime window hours Primary input to ERP-1012 planned vs unplanned comparisons and Loss Driver (# breakdown hours) (restricted to UNPLANNED). | SUM | 2.0 / 4.0 |
| Total Unplanned Downtime (Hours) | SAC Restricted Measure: SUM(Unified Downtime Hours) where PlannedVsUnplanned = 'UNPLANNED' | Restricted measure in SAC that sums Unified Downtime Hours only for unplanned (breakdown) records. Used directly in ERP-1012 KPI views. | SUM | |
| Total Planned Downtime (Hours) | SAC Restricted Measure: SUM(Unified Downtime Hours) where PlannedVsUnplanned = 'PLANNED' | Restricted measure in SAC that sums Unified Downtime Hours only for planned maintenance records. | SUM | |
| Downtime Ratio Planned / Unplanned | SAC Calculated Measure: TotalPlannedDowntime / NULLIF(TotalUnplannedDowntime, 0) | Ratio of planned to unplanned downtime for the selected context. Benchmarking measure. | CALCULATED | |
| Technical Availability % (optional) | SAC Calculated Measure: (AvailableTime - TotalUnplannedDowntime) / AvailableTime * 100 | High-level availability KPI. AvailableTime must be defined by business rule (e.g., 24h days in period, with or without planned windows). Not sourced from CDS. | CALCULATED |

| Field | Required/Optional | Scope | Default | Comment |
| Periods (Weeks / Months / Quarters) | Optional | Interval (Date or Fiscal Period) | Default = last xxxxx | Applied using CreationDate or CreationDateTime |
| Functional Location (Asset Hierarchy) | Optional | Hierarchy | No default | Filters the dataset based on the asset hierarchy, supported via FunctionalLocation from I_PMNotifMaintenanceData. (Does this hierarchy exist?) |
| Main Work Center | Optional | Multiple Single Values | No default | (_MainWorkCenter.WorkCenterInternalID). |
| Planner Group | Optional | Multiple Single Values | No default | Not supported in this Analytical Model because Planner Group is not a field in either I_MaintenanceNotification or I_PMNotifMaintenanceData. |
| Storage Location | Optional | Multiple Single Values | No default | Not supported in this Analytical Model. |
| Maintenance Event | Optional | Multiple Single Values | No default | No dedicated “Maintenance Event” field exists. Not supported in this Analytical Model. Potential exists for an alternative. |
Supports:
*Since this potentially is the difference between two consecutive breakdown records, more calculations may be required in a separate model. Complexity ramps up if it requires actual operating hours between failures.

Dimensions & Measures are defined in the Functional Specification under “Dimensions & Measures: Requirements View”; the analytical model exposes those fields at notification grain without pre-aggregation.

| Downtime Duration (Seconds) | I_PMNotifMaintenanceData.MaintObjectDowntimeDuration | Raw downtime duration as stored in PM notification (AUSZT). No transformation. | SUM | 7200 |
