In a standard predefined SAP IBP planning area for demand planning processes, we have the following key figures that are used to show the quantities in monetary equivalent:
Actuals Revenue (ACTUALSREV):
Used to store the actual revenue data that you upload. Since this key figure is currency-dependent, it models how currency conversion works in SAP IBP.
Actuals Price (ACTUALSPRICE):
Used to store the calculated price based on the ACTUALSREV and ADJDELIVQTY key figures. No separate currency conversion is modeled because the conversion is already done for the input key figure ACTUALSREV.
Statistical Forecast Price (STATISTICALFCSTPRICE):
Used to store price information mainly for future periods. You can forecast the price using a statistical forecasting method, but you can also enter or upload it manually. Since this key figure is currency-dependent, it models how currency conversion works in SAP IBP.
Sales Forecast Price (SALESFCSTPRICE):
Used to store calculated price information. It is equal to ACTUALSPRICEm, if ACTUALSPRICE is not NULL. Otherwise, it is equal to STATISTICALFCSTPRICE. Past periods are equal to ACTUALSPRICE and future periods are equal to the forecasted or estimated price. No separate currency conversion is modeled because the key figure equals another converted-price key figure.
Sales Forecast Revenue (SALESFCSTREV):
Used to store the calculated revenue based on SALESFCSTQTY and SALESFCSTPRICE.
Consensus Demand Plan Revenue (CONSENSUSDEMANDREV):
Used to store the calculated revenue based on CONSENSUSDEMAND and SALESFCSTPRICE.
Marketing Forecast Revenue (MARKETINGFCSTREV):
Used to store the calculated revenue based on MARKETINGFCSTQTY and SALESFCSTPRICE.
Other required key figures can be created to cover additional processes that may exist in customer business processes.
