Define the Assignment
An assignment is the description header record for assignment sequences. A sequence is the order or hierarchy that the system uses to process calculations. To allow for multitiered calculations, an assignment can be made up on one or many assignment sequences. For example, in your assignment of Sales Activity, you have two sequences: sales costs by percent of time, and sales costs by number of sales order lines for a customer.
When you define your assignment, you must enter identifying information and specify the order in which the system processes information for this assignment in relation to other assignments. If you create an assignment with multiple sequences, the system retrieves the following default information from the previous assignment sequence:
Assignment name.
Date definitions.
From - driver or cost analyzer based.
Based on - driver, cost analyzer based, or index computation.
