Measure configuration

The typification rules are defined based on attribute calculations in the measure configuration. The calculation rule is specified in the function XML element.

XML tag

Description

function name

Name of the typification rule – referenced by the typifierrule function XML element for the process tree configuration.

resulttype

Result value. Must be of the BOOLEAN type.

datatype

Data type. Must be of the BOOLEAN type.

A typification rule for the above example could look like this:

Example

Extract from file Keyindicator.xml

...

<function name="typifierrule_OrderProcessing_StandardOrder"

resulttype="BOOLEAN" datatype="BOOLEAN">

<in>

<constant>

<dataitem>

C

<datatype name="TEXT">Text</datatype>

</dataitem>

</constant>

<attribute name="AT_SAP_VBTYP" nodetype="OT_FUNC">

<in>

<constant>

<dataitem>

SO

<datatype name="TEXT">Text</datatype>

</dataitem>

</constant>

<attribute name="AT_SAP_VKBELEGART"
nodetype="OT_FUNC" objectname="this"/>

</in>

</attribute>

</in>

</function>

...

Calling up the typifierrule_OrderProcessing_StandardOrder function (typification rule) checks whether the process instance to be typified is typified as Order processing\Standard order (return value = true) or not (return value = false).
The process instance is assigned to the Standard order process type under the following condition: The process instance must contain at least one function that includes the attribute type combination AT_SAP_VBTYP with the value C and AT_SAP_VKBELEGART with the value SO.
