Understanding Based On Tables

You can set up calculations so that the system creates driver balance entries that are based on information in master tables, such as the Sales Order Detail File table (F4211) for the number of sales orders per customer or the Work Order Master File table (F4801) for the quantity shipped by item. When you run the Driver Calculations program (R1632), the system populates the Driver Balances table (F1632) with data from the based-on tables for the drivers that you choose to run.

The following table shows the tables on which you can base driver calculations and examples of data that you can gather from the tables when you run the Driver Calculations program:
