Customer pain point
Data splitting is a well-established best practice, and splitting data into smaller chunks is one of the most critical configuration strategies in DTV implementation projects.
In large validation projects where data spans multiple company codes, fiscal years, organizational units, and other dimensions, customers often struggle to split the data into manageable subsets for extraction.
To overcome this challenge, DTV 1.8 introduces the Auto-Propose feature, designed to help customers efficiently segment and extract data from large datasets.
Auto-propose
Auto-propose suggests split parameters based on data availability and memory settings for faster decision making and better split intelligently. The feature is not enforced hence; users have the option either to Accept or Decline the proposed split.
Auto Propose is available in Simulation screen and supported for DTV pre-delivered reports and transparent tables and is enabled only for source.
How to leverage Auto-Propose?
Step -1
Go to Simulation.
Select a report and click on “Auto Propose”
The tool will now propose Split parameters along with the respective Split values for each split parameter automatically by checking the system data and memory parameter.
From the proposed split parameters end user can select all or combination of parameters.
And the click on Accept to accept the proposed parameters.
Step 2
Once Accepted the selected Auto-propose Split parameters will be updated automatically in the following screens.
- In XML Test Specification tab of Simulation screen
- In Project Global Data screen
- In Test Specification screen (For the respective report)
XML Test Specification tab

Step 3
Users can then start extraction and run validation as usual process.
Hope, this blog helps you to start exploring and using Auto-propose feature in DTV tool.
