Really helpful much thaaaaks Mr Abdullah

[@AbdullahGalal]

My pleasure

[@hkpadmanabham7859]

Thanks Galal. It would have been immensely helpful, if you could have shown how a Proft. segment gets created, what it represents (charactersitic combinations), and how it helps retraction of data easy for reporting purposes. for example. if you have combinations of 7 characteristics, forming a profit segment, but you want to aggregate your report only for two characteristics, will there be another set of Prof. seg. combining the two characteristic values.

[@AbdullahGalal]

Profit. Segments are created automatically with the margin analysis posting. When you report on 2 characteristics only , SAP aggregates the numbers on in realtime. No need for another segment

[@hkpadmanabham7859]

@@AbdullahGalal so if, i select 40 COPA characteristics like customer, Brand, Brand category, etc, is the PS combination of these 40 Characteristics?

[@AbdullahGalal]

@@hkpadmanabham7859 Yes but I strongly advise not to use a lot of characteristics as this has a huge impact on the number of entries :)

[@hkpadmanabham7859]

@@AbdullahGalal You are right. Addition of characteristics means transaction data has to be split to such granular level. While client do desire to enable many, periodic allocations to break down the costs to appropriate segments is definitely a task that effects the quality of your reporting. Thanks again.

[@ntcuong01ct1]

Dear Friends, I have a question: Does SAP CO-PA (profitability analysis) allow analysis up to Net Profit by Customer Segment + Product?. Thank you.

[@renegonzalezaguado3835]

very nice explanation, I was waiting this video long ago

[@AbdullahGalal]

Glad you liked it

[@asmitapandey4307]

Hello Abdullah sir
I have seen hundreds of SAP FICO videos on RUclips, but I can say the way you explain SAP FI it is the best.
I request you to upload more videos on FI modules. :)

[@AbdullahGalal]

Thank you so much.

[@kathiresannagarajan7648]

Thanks for delivering very good content on the introduction of COPA. As usual, you rock the floor.
My basic understanding is that COGS = COGM + Sales & Admin costs. Whereas, in the video Operating expenses of the income statement include sales & admin costs. Then, my COGS definition will be equivalent to COGM, which seems to be illogical. I’m confused over here. Please clarify me.

[@AbdullahGalal]

You have to read this great article
