Interfacing IBPF with MPR on CAR

[dheeraj_gupta]

Hi,

I have a requirement to interface financial plan in IBPF with Merchandise Plan (in CAR). As IBPF is based on embedded BW in ERP, so is Merchandise Plan which is based on embedded BW in CAR.

The characteristics used in IBPF is different from the one used in Merchandise Plan, but a mapping is available to convert one into another. For instance, Profit Centres need to be changes to Plant numbers, Region need to derived from company code etc.

I want to extract the data from a real-time cube in IBPF, transform it (characteristic matching and some charactertics derivation) and then post it in Merchandise Plan in an Advanced DSO.

I want to know what technology should I use to do this ?

Regards,

Dheeraj

PS: : Both applications are on two different HANA instances and are on BW 7.4.

Hi Dheeraj,

How often do you need to load data from IBPf to MPR?

If it's just around once a day you can create IBPf as a Source System to MPR and use regular BW load. If you need this very frequently then this is probably not a good option.

The data load need to have happen both ways. From IBPF to MPR and back.

IBPF to MPR do not happen often but MPR to IBPF might happen more than once a day.

What other technologies that I could use ?

You can create a VirtualProvider and include it in Aggregation level. Then use FOX to move data between reference cube and real-time.
