Financial Department Corelio
Centralised Group ControllingDecentralised controllersSAP FI/CO :
– One platform in 2010– Untill then : 2 platforms with BW to bring reporting data together
Reporting tool : BW with Excel/bex as front-end toolForecasting : excel stand-aloneBudgetting : excel stand-alone + SAP upload
– Excel is not made for this– Upload in SAP in time-consuming, especially for handling revised data
![Page 9: Reporting and Budgeting With SAP BPC](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020105/553e0a714a7959632d8b47e0/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Situation before BPC
SAP + BW/bexAdvantages
– Standardised– Data content : bringing 2 SAP-platforms together for reporting– Quick data look-up
Disadvantages– Difficult to integrate with standard lay-out & presentation– User friendliness– Only reporting, no budgetting or consolidation– Forecasting in excel : lot of re-input in different excel-reports– Budgetting in excel and upload in SAP : dangerous, needs a lot of checks
![Page 10: Reporting and Budgeting With SAP BPC](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020105/553e0a714a7959632d8b47e0/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Wish-list Corelio (1)
Improvement lay-out : reports on paper are still very important !Standard lay-out
– Easier for end-user to walk around in data– Bringing decentralised users on standardised platform : one truth– No more excel stand-alone
Forecast– In database– But not on lowest detail level– Allocations– Integrated comments of budgetholder– Proces : log
![Page 11: Reporting and Budgeting With SAP BPC](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020105/553e0a714a7959632d8b47e0/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Wish-list Corelio (2)
Budget– In database– Integration ‘framework’ on high level with details (CC/CE) on lowest level– Allocations– Integrated comments & interaction with division controllers– Proces automatistion & log
Consolidation in same database as management reporting– Faster– Auto-reconciliation
![Page 12: Reporting and Budgeting With SAP BPC](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020105/553e0a714a7959632d8b47e0/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Solution : BPC
Strong integration with existing SAP/BW– Netweaver-version– Integration with new profitcenter accounting in SAP/R3 (2010) goes very quickly
Front-end : excel– Flexible : use of standard excel-functionality possible– Need for poweruser to create ‘standard reports’ for end-user, but poweruser does not have to
be an IT-specialist.– End-user can navigate easily in reporting– Feels like excel, but with one database one truth
Comments are available in database interactiveBudget & forecasting process :
– Uniformisation (inputschedules)– Automatisation (no more multiple inputs)– High level data & low devel detail in same tool
One tool for both consolidation & management reporting (next step)

Project observationsFast ROI on Actuals reporting due to integrated environmentKey-user quickly adopts BPC functionality and report buildingBI plays an important role to make good progress
Project recommendations / lessons learntInvolvement of key-user is important, even during design ; design is not anIT related job in SAP BPCWorkflow functionality of the Microsoft version not yet present – be creativeMake sure you know all functionality differences between Microsoft andNetweaver versionBe a Microsoft Excel expert

Integration SAP BI - BPC
BPC objects generates SAP NetWeaver BI objects (i.e. InfoCubes, InfoObjects)All BPC Objects are stored in the /CPMB/ namespace
SAP BPC SAP BI
![Page 27: Reporting and Budgeting With SAP BPC](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022020105/553e0a714a7959632d8b47e0/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Integration SAP BI - BPC
BPC is not able to use the objects in the « standard BI namespace »In the NetWeaver version you can choose between SAP BI functionalitiesand BPC functionalitiesIn BPC, data (transactional, master) IS NOT shared across AppSets.Appsets are like InfoAreas, but without shared data
