The Data Manager is a Planning and Consolidation module that helps you move data into the system, copy or move data within and across applications, and export data from an application for use in an external tool. In addition, the Data Manager supports mapping and complex transformations of data.

The Data Manager also allows you to export transactional and master data from an application within Planning and Consolidation to a file that you can use in an external tool.

The Data Manager is used with both
  • SAP BusinessObjects Planning and Consolidation, version for the Microsoft platform
  • SAP BusinessObjects Planning and Consolidation, version for SAP NetWeaver

The Data Manager is integrated with the Excel interface. Click the Data Manager tab to start the Data Manager.

You can set up system logic to work together with packages in the Data Manager. When you import data, most packages automatically run default logic, which is contained in the default.lgf file, for your application. You can also include logic files in packages, or you can prompt users for logic files that they would like to use.
