Siebel Consumer Goods Guide > Sales Volume Planning > About the SVP Aggregate Action Process > Performing the Initial AggregationThe SVP Aggregate action executes and builds the account-category relationships defined earlier in the physical database. After this process is complete, SVP users can navigate the associated account-category hierarchy to understand or change periodic product movement data. You can specify that the Aggregate action aggregate baseline data and roll up incremental volume from any level of the hierarchy across the entire account-category-product hierarchy. You can also choose to aggregate particular source fields (such as incremental volume) rather than the entire source table. The SVP Aggregate action must be run independently for each product movement table: baseline, target, consumption, and shipment. For example, a planning administrator who wants to establish targets and a baseline basis must run the Aggregate action twice; once to establish the targets and a second time to establish a baseline basis. You use the same SVP hierarchy when performing the Aggregate action for targets and a baseline basis. NOTE: Before performing aggregation, make sure that products are associated with their respective account's authorized product distribution list. For more information, see About Creating and Modifying Distribution Lists. This task is a step in Process of Sales Volume Planning.
