Hi there,

 

I need to restate profit center column in the delivery fact table. Historical Profit Centers need to be populated since today is the first time we brought in Profit Center field from LIPS table. The source for the delivery fact table is SAP LIPS table. so what I did is:

 

joined the LIPS and delivery fact table on (LIPS.delivery number = deliveryfacttable.delivery number & LIPS.delivery line item number = deliveryfacttable.delivery line item number) to get the profit center.

 

So the source and the target delivery fact table are the same. Is this a good practice becuase Data services warns me that the source and target tables are the same.

 

Please let me know a better alternative approach to this OR a better approach to restate fields for historical data. Thanks in advance.
