Product Group Breakdown 

The Product group breakdown function shows you a lot of information on a product group hierarchy. It has two possible display formats:

  1. You see the entire product group hierarchy.
  2. You see just the direct members of the product group hierarchy.

In the report, you click on the pushbuttons More and Less to vary the level of detail. Up to three levels of detail can be displayed. An extended report shows:

  • The hierarchical level of each product group member in ascending order down the hierarchy
  • The plant, number, and description of each hierarchy node
  • Any planning versions that exist for that node
  • The proportional, aggregation, and conversion factors of that node in relation to the directly superior product group
  • The proportional, aggregation, and conversion factors at each hierarchical level in relation to the specified product group

Use the pushbutton Details (or double-click) to obtain detailed data on a particular node. From the Detailed Data window, you can branch to a list of the planning versions that exist for that node.
