Example Sample data for subperiod then period

Here are a few considerations for the example.

  • KPI spans across three weeks (W1 - W3), and each week contains different sub periods. W1 consists of two sub periods, W2 consists of four sub periods, and W3 consists of a single sub period.
  • 16 is entered as manual input at the KPI total level, and is distributed across plan and time hierarchy.

The following configurations are also considered:

Configuration KPI
Rounding Type With carry
Rounding Order Subperiod then period
Rounding Precision 0
Time Granularity Subperiod

Here’s the sequence of execution.

Step No. Calculation step Description
1 Rounded subperiod values

Period values are calculated by rounding the sub period values with global carry.

For Week (W) 1, round 2.29 = 2. Round (0.29 + 3.05) = Round (3.34) = 3

Similarly, period values are calculated for other weeks.

2 Subperiod Carry

Carry values are determined based on the global carry used. The system obtains a global carry based on the following logic: (Carry of the previous period + value of the period before rounding) - value of the period after rounding

For W1: 2.29 - 2 = 0.29, and similarly for the remaining weeks.

Similarly, carry values are calculated for other weeks.

For Subperiods then Period (without carry), the values for W1, W2, and W3 are zero.

3 Period values Period values are calculated by applying merge rule on the sub period values. For W1, 2+3=5, and similarly for the remaining weeks.
4 Rounded period values Rounded period values are obtained by rounding the period values without carry. For W1, Round (5) = 5, and similarly for the remaining weeks.
5 Period Carry The period carry isn’t considered and hence the value is zero.
Note
Note For Subperiod then Period (without carry), sub periods and periods are rounded without carry.
