Sales Planning with FOX or with Inverse Formula in SAP BW Integrated Planning

Integrated Planning

Introduction

Working with Integrated Planning is about supporting the planning process with a common plan database and with planning functions that accelerates the work of the planners. Until now we had many options to define planning functions and for the complex ones we could use Formula Extensions - shortly FOX - or ABAP. Starting the version SAP Netweaver 7.3 we have another tool in our toolbox, called Inverse Formula that we can define in the Query Designer.
