Answer: B,D

Explanation:When the key figures are updated as sum in a transformation, the delta methods that would provide consistent information are "ADD" and "AIE".

ADD: The delta method "ADD" supports additive deltas, meaning that the data from the source is simply added to the existing data in the target.

AIE: The delta method "AIE" stands for "After-Image" in which case the most recent version of a record is always transferred during the delta update. The key figure values are overwritten in the target DataStore Object which should not be an issue if the source data is consistent.

ABR and C. AIM are not valid delta methods for SAP BW/4HANA.
