Best regards

Hello, thanks for the question. When it comes to predictive forecasting, it surfaces in multiple points in SAP Analytics Cloud.

To further clarify the ask:

- Are you referring to the ability of forecasting in charts (time series charts & line charts)?

- Are you referring to the ability of forecasting directly in tables ("forecast" feature)?

- Are you referring to Predictive Planning and the ability to use Smart Predict time series on top of planning models?

Kind regards,

Antoine

Hi,

i am referring to

- the ability of forecasting directly in tables

- Predictive Planning and the ability to us Smart Predict time series on top of planning models

Is one or maybe both of these points useable in SAC using BPC Embedded Live Planning?

And to your question, to my knowledge there are no concrete plans for the time being on the BPC Embedded Live Planning (connection to BW/4HANA) connection. On the other hand though 100% of the Smart Features are supported on top of SAC / Planning models using acquired data (including the new models coming for Q2 / QRC). In general, enhancement requests for SAP Analytics Cloud need to be raised via the official portal https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/campaign/884 (Influence Portal)/

Kind regards
