SAP BW Live Connectivity

Live connectivity to SAP BW is very important to our Customers and in this quarter we bring you the ability to calculate the difference between two time periods.

This useful feature Supports the “difference from” calculation in the calculation editor for models based on a live connection to SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) from SAP Analytics Cloud and closes the feature gap between models based on SAP HANA and remote SAP BW models

Predictive Planning

Using machine learning to generate forecast has become an important part of our planning cycles and one thing customers always ask me is how can I look back and review how accurate those forecasts were compared to what actually happened. In QRC 1 2023 with the use of Multi Actions we can now save forecast values for past periods.

As a user of the predictive step in multi actions, I can generate the forecasts for past periods so that I can implement my own performance metric in stories.

This will further improve automation for predictive planning. Using the forecasted values for past periods to ease the generation of ad hoc accuracy measures to evaluate the performance of previous predicted forecasts.

Enterprise Planning

As always we have many new features in Enterprise planning across Data Actions, Multi Actions, Predictive Capabilities, Commenting, Plan entry and Plan process management. In this blog we will focus on two very useful new additions.

Data Action– Tracing Capability

With the addition of numerous Data Actions and Advanced Formulas functionality over the past few years we have added a new tracing or  “Debugging” feature to simplify development and testing process. These features include the ability to:

  • Define trace points and see visual cues indicating number and location of trace points
  • Execute tracing in-line with script construction including parameter passing
  • Watch Area and ability to display table to see results for trace points
  • View run history for script tracing
  • Consume trace version within stories

Plan Process Management: Calendar – Administration Role

In this quarter we introduce a calendar administration role, which can be enabled or granted to any administration roles within SAP Analytics Cloud. This gives the Administrator the ability to see and manage all calendar tasks and processes regardless of ownership and involvement.

Calendar Administrators now have:

  • Ability to toggle on display for all calendar events regardless (even those for which the user has no involvement)
  • Visual cues to explicitly indicate that the user is in administration mode
  • Ability to modify any calendar events while in administration mode
  • Enabled via a role base privilege which can be granted to specific roles (auto-enable for Planning Administrators)
