It details the step-by-step operations, from project selection to marking summarization in projects and networks, accompanied by updates to the RPSCO database table for efficient reporting. Recognizing summarized projects and networks in the database, setting up the hierarchy structure in Customizing (KKR0), and identifying summarization objects are covered, to streamline the reporting and data transfer processes in SAP systems. The note avoids detailed security information or sensitive setup steps, ensuring focus on procedural content.
