Classic SAP HANA-optimized Business Content

Product Cost Forecast and Simulation

• Business need: Customers want to achieve more transparency across the organization on their product

cost and material expenses. Focus is on raw material prices and on commodity prices as primary cost

drivers.

• Based on the standard product cost calculation of the SAP Business Suite (CO-PC), this solution

forecasts and simulates future product costs and their impact on the company spend and margin

• Forecasting and simulation parameters (“drivers” e.g. commodities, FX) are changed using input-ready

queries similar to other planning applications.

• Complex calculations using SAP HANA capabilities for Product Cost Forecast and What-If simulations

• LSA++ Architecture

• Usage of DSO (classic), MultiProvider



• Complex on-the-fly calculations using SAP HANA
