Fixed Asset in BPC - Design

[Former Member]

Have a quick design question.

When designing Fixed Asset Planning in BPC, do you typically maintain a subnumber dimension?

In ECC asset accounting is typically done by Asset and Sub number combination.

Option 1) Concatinate Sub Number while populating Asset MD in BPC

Option 2) Maintain a separate dimension for sub number in BPC

My only concern is the volume of data. Typically there can be 10 sub numbers hence the high volume of Asset master data will become 10 times bigger in BPC. Also it doesn't feel right to maintain a dimension for sub number.

Just polling to see how others handled it elsewhere.

Thanks

In some cases it's possible to plan on the asset class level....

Hi Andrew,

If you don't need to plan on subnumbers then it is better to concatenate with asset.
