S&OP Powered by HANA

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I am looking into S&OP powered by HANA to analyse if it can be a good fit for a requirement at client.

Landscape:

ECC 6

HANA side car (in memory database, HANA studio, S&OP)

BOBJ

Requirement:

Client needs to bring the sales and distribution contracts data in a reporting/planning tool and run simulations of various what if scenarios and save them.

Question:

Can we just pull the data from SD tables in S&OP HANA application and do the planning? or do we need to do any S&OP configuration on ECC side first?

Hi,

S&OP is available on Cloud and it can be connected to ECC via HCI (HANA Cloud Integration) which in included in S&OP license. As such no configuration is required from ECC side. The mapping in S&OP table and ECC tables are out of the box for certain master data and key figures.

Please check the details of simulations that customer requires in sales and distribution. Standard what-if simulations in S&OP includes demand-supply balancing keeping an eye on financial objectives.

Best Regards,

Vikas
