Integrating BI Integrated Planning 

Use

You can use the BW-BPS Status and Tracking system (STS) with BI Integrated Planning. This is useful if you are already using BW-BPS with the Status and Tracking system but want to use additional functions from BI Integrated Planning.

Activities

If you want to apply the STS lock check to Web applications created in BI Integrated Planning, proceed as follows:

...

       1.      Open the Planning Modeler.

       2.      Open the InfoProvider for which you want to use the STS lock check.

       3.      Open the Data Slice tab page for this InfoProvider.

       4.      Choose Create.

       5.      Choose the Exit Class entry from the selection list for The Data Slice Is Based On.

       6.      Choose exit class CL_UPS_LOCK_DATASLICE.

       7.      Save your entries.

In the Customizing of STS you can then enter the URLs of Web applications created in BI Integrated Planning for the planning application and control report.

In addition, you can enter either a global planning sequence created within BW-BPS or a planning sequence (with a variant, if applicable) created within BI Integrated Planning upon status switch. Input help is available.
