What is an Info Set?

Use info sets to group together key figures that are logically related. Info sets are particularly useful if you repeatedly need to call up the same key figures together. For example, you can create an info set of all the key figures you need to check regularly.
There are two types of info set:
  • Single-level info sets
  • Multi-level info sets
The members of a single-level info set are key figures.

The members of a multi-level info set are one or more subordinate info sets. Thus, a multi-level info set can be seen as a hierarchical structure that refers to other info sets (see figure below).


An InfoSet is a special view of a dataset, such as logical database, table join, table, and sequential file, and is used by SAP Query as a source data.

InfoSets determine the tables or fields in these tables that can be referenced by a report. In most cases, InfoSets are based on logical databases. SAP Query includes a component for maintaining InfoSets.

When you create an InfoSet, a DataSource in an application system is selected.
