SAP Integrated Business Planning, add-in for Microsoft Excel, AI-assisted planning

AI-assisted generation of SAP IBP formulas.

Overview

Planners can now use the AI-assisted planning feature to easily generate SAP IBP formulas and formatting rules for their planning views without needing extensive technical knowledge. With SAP IBP formulas, planners can integrate custom calculations into their planning views using SAP IBP data. Additionally, formatting rules enable planners to highlight critical aspects of their plans, making it easier to identify areas that require attention. Previously, creating SAP IBP formulas and formatting rules was a manual process that typically required administrators due to its technical complexity. Now, with the introduction of planning assistance, planners can simply describe their requirements in natural language, and the system will generate the necessary SAP IBP formulas or formatting rules for them. This generative AI feature streamlines the planning process, empowering planners to focus on strategy rather than technical details.
