Hi guys,
I am working in a new project to use IBP 6.1 and I would like to know your opinion about when use "External" Key Figures.
Let me put you in context, we will plan to follow Demand and S&OP process, and we have some information of Key Figures from external systems, for example Sales Order.
Ours first approach was to configure this type of KF as simple KF and load the data manually or by import data functionality. But in the final deployment, the requirements will require real-time integration.
And in this case for the final solution, we should remove the original KF and create a new one as External, and we will lost few hours, right?.
What is your recommendation to use External Key Figures? In which situations?
Thanks in advance for all your answer.
Regards,
David.
