Compounding Info Object

Compounding Info Object

In Compounding a Field or another Object is attached to an Info Object. A Compounding Characteristic is when object's definition is incomplete without the definition of the another Characteristic Info Object.

For the better understanding the Info Object - Location (0PP_LOCAT) has to be assigned with  a Compound Info Object - Plant (0PLANT).

Here Plant(0PLANT) is the Superior Info Object of the Location(0PP_LOCAT)

The Info Object 0Plant has to be Installed/Created/ Activated first, later followed by Location(0PP_LOCAT)

While creating the Info Object itself we need to assign the Superior Object like below at Compounding Tab Page of Info Object.

Compounding Info Object Acts as a compounding Primary Key at the Master Data Table.

When a compounded Info object is included in an Info cube, all corresponding info objects are added to the Info cube. 

If Location(0PP_LOCAT) is to be included in the Info Cube , Plant (0Plant) is automatically added to the Info Cube. 


When a Compounded Info object is included in the DSO , all corresponding Objects are added to the DSO Key fields/Data Fields.

If Location(0PP_LOCAT) is to be included in the DSO , Plant (0Plant) is automatically added to the DSO.
