Find Constituents
The Find Constituents process finds all source data to be aggregated for a given aggregation measuring component, based on the Aggregation Measuring Component’s dimensions. The queries used for this process are based on data source template SQL extended by attributes defined on the Aggregation Measuring Components being processed.
The Find Constituents process is initiated by the aggregation algorithm on the Aggregation Measuring Component (each type of Aggregation Measuring Component — interval, item, billed quantities — has its own aggregation algorithm), and is performed by algorithms defined for the Find Constituents system event on the Aggregation Measuring Component business object.
This process differs slightly when finding constituents for interval and scalar measurements stored on measuring components, item data, and billed quantities.
