Business Concept of Article Hierarchy
An Article Hierarchy in ERP Retail can be used to hold any given hierarchical
Article Grouping e.g. a combination of articles in groups from a sales perspective
The Article Hierarchy can be linked to shops to portray the presentation of certain
sub-ranges on the sales floor (physical and logical segmentation of a shop)
Optional Integration to Planning, Operations and Reporting on different levels of
aggregation
The Article Hierarchy is designed to serve Category Management purposes. It
focuses on customer needs, whereas Merchandise Categories observe physical
attributes of the goods.

Key Message: For any new customer project it is strongly recommended

to use the new article hierarchy solution available starting with ERP 2005
Decisions to take before using the article hierarchy

Usage of a time dependent Article hierarchy necessary higher complexity in SAP ERP und SAP BW
Usage of multiple assignment
Define the category level in the Article Hierarchy customizing
Usage of the shop concept (together with the multiple assignment)
Usage of new attributes like price level group, strategy, role …
Usage of one chain wide AH or multiple distribution chain article hierarchies
BW Extraction necessary

Article List: General Introduction
Dynamic article lists

Consist of stored selection criteria, with which the actual article data
can be determined each time
Static article lists
Consist of both the selection criteria and the dependent articles,
show those articles, that have been assigned uniquely
Article list hierarchy
To create and maintain article lists, the creation of exactly one article
list hierarchy is necessary.
Each article list is assigned to exactly one end node in the hierarchy
The hierarchic grouping is concise and facilitates the selection of a
specific article list
Article lists can be exchanged with a BI
E.g. use a query for bestseller/slowseller articles and export this list
to SAP ERP

Structured articles: General Introduction
In order to simplify the logistic handling of goods, there are so called

“structured articles “ in a retail environment, a combination of several
homogeneous single articles, which only differentiate in certain
characteristics (sizes, colors etc..).
As the single articles represent the sold units, it may be necessary to get
information on single article basis (components) in reports although it is not
present in all logistic process steps.
An additional dissolution of
structured articles was not
possible in SAP BI until
now.

Extraction of the Movement Data from Structured
Articles
SAP ERP explodes document items that contain a structured article into additional items
for the components of a prepack ( possible for DataSources 2LIS_02_SCL, 2LIS_03_BF
and 2LIS_03_BX ).
The extraction occurs by means of a standard implementation of

WRF_BWEXT_STRUKTART of BAdIs RS05_SAPI_BADI (BW Service APIs with Business
Add-Ins). This implementation takes account of the Customizing settings mentioned
under Prerequisites above.
This implementation is only available in systems with Enterprise Add- On Retail.
Important Note:
The Standard implementation is delivered as active, that means each customer how is
not interested in the explosion could switch of the implementation and increase the
performance.

Splitting Structured Articles into Components
stored into Foundation DSO 0RT_DS02
This DataStore object is used to consistently store data from DataSource

0RT_SPSTRUC_ATTR which contains the customizing information about explosion/ non-
explosion of articles.
The information is required to balance the article movements from ERP (DataStore object
0RSL_DS51) with the sales data (DataStore object 0RT_DS54) for the stock ledger.

Note 846106: Exploding structured articles
In order not to falsify business content in BI with additional data from explosion of
structured articles, this data is deleted in the start routines of InfoSources
2LIS_02_SCL, 2LIS_03_BF und 2LIS_03_BX (Which means you can analyze only
the unexploded structured article in this case).
If the data should be used to analyze both the unexploded structured article and
the exploded structured article please follow procedure described in note 846106.

Moving Average Price Handling in Trading
Content – Part I
Business Context: the missing Moving Average Price
Whether it is the inventory manager, a replenishment specialist, a category manager or

an assortment specialist, the success of most of the retailer’s key role owners will be
measured against their investment.
The success of the investment can be ensured by tickling consumer demand, keep the
costs low and keep the inventory low throughout the considered time frames.
This is typically monitored by analyzing the sales at retail, sales at cost, the gross margin
(percentage), average inventory and ultimately the GMROI, which expresses the overall
success of your investment.
The Moving Average Price plays an important role in this formula since the gross margin,
the numerator of the GMROI formula, is the difference of sales at retail and sales at cost.
The sales costs are evaluated by taking the sales units and multiplying this by the moving
average price.
This means that the moving average price has to be available in BI.

Please use the method GET_MOVING_AVERAGE of BADI RSBCT_RPA_GET_MOVING_AVERAGE.
There exits a sample implementation GET_MOVING_AVG_FROM_MATL_GROUP that reads a

High level Margin from the InfoObject 0MATL_GROUP. This sample will not be executed and
can be used as a template for a customer implementation.

Retail Terminology – Activating Retail Short
Text Replacement
Many business processes in Retail use SAP BI to evaluate data that comes from
various different components, for example, from SAP ERP or SAP R/3 but also from
SAP Forecasting and Replenishment (SAP F&R), which is part of mySAP SCM.
While SAP ERP or SAP R/3 uses terms that are linked to its industry sectors
(material and plant in production, article and site in SAP Retail), in other components
you will find the more universally-employed terms product and location.
When evaluating data from different sources it is best to use consistent terminology.
It is therefore possible to convert the screen in your SAP BI system to display the
more universal terms product and location in several languages. This conversion is
performed with short text replacement.
In the SAP Service Marketplace, you can find out the languages and components for
which short text replacement is available and how you activate it
( http://service.sap.com/retail) under Expert Knowledge Corner Across
Components Short Text Replacement in Retail Short Text Replacement.
