      <Paragraph>If you want to aggregate
      data from one or more channel master plans to the corresponding item master
      plan, you need not define aggregation relationships for this. You can use the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/dsp/cpdsp5210m000" role="session">Aggregate Channel to Item Master Plan (cpdsp5210m000)</GUIRef> session to carry out this type of
      aggregation directly.</Paragraph>

         <ListIntro>For a plan item with <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/domains/rpd.plit#productfamily" role="option">Family</GUIRef> item type, LN automatically aggregates the <Link href="/baanerp/cp/glossary/glossary#000044" role="glossary">goods-flow</Link> data of the child
        items. To do so, you must first define an appropriate aggregation relationship,
        and run the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd4200m000" role="session">Initialize, Roll, and Update Scenario (cprpd4200m000)</GUIRef> session, with the <GUIRef href="/baanerp/cp/rpd/cprpd4200m000#update.goods.flow" role="manual">Update Goods Flow Data</GUIRef> check box selected.

        three situations:</ListIntro>
