Hi Ganesh

Spend Analytics, or Spend Performance Management (SPM) as its now referred to is an analytical tool for analyzing procurement data. I am the dev architect of this product and can try and answer any question you might have.

SPM comes with a extractor starter kit for ECC, SRM and eSourcing.

This application is based on BW backend and Flex frontend.

For detailed documentation here is the link in Svc Marketplace:

Hi Rajesh,

I am reading the SPM 2.1 master guide and I dun understand 'SAP BusinessObjects Spend Performance Management is built on SAP NetWeaver BW'? I always thought Spend Analytics are based on BW tech not BO? Why is it named BO now just for marketing? Sorry it just confused me. Thanks.
