SAP Analytics Cloud for planning with Data Warehouse Cloud - Data Import still neccessary?

[guenay]

Hi friends,

with the features of the DWC we don't need a model within the SAC. We can directly access the Reporting View inside DWC and build our Story. Super cool!

But what about SAC planning. Usually we need to import data into the SAC model and build our planning scenario on that model. Can we do planning without aqcuiring the data by using the DWC connection?

Looking forward for your answers.

Thnaks in advance,

Ismail

Hi Ismail,

As far as I know all the SAC planning models will require importing the data independently of which DataSource/Connection you are using. A different story applies, as you rightly mentioned, if you are working with Analytic models in which case your model can reside in DWC.

Hope it helps.

Kind regards,

Pedro
