The application was used intensively for forecasting and medium-term planning. This, but also in particular the unfavorable system design with a processing of the large amounts of data on the desktop devices of the users, led to bottlenecks in the processing speed. The switch to SAP's preferred planning tool, BPC Embedded, in combination with an SAP HANA database was therefore the obvious choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8220;1&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8220;default&#8220; custom_padding=&#8220;||0px||false|false&#8220; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220; theme_builder_area=&#8220;post_content&#8220;][et_pb_row use_custom_gutter=&#8220;on&#8220; gutter_width=&#8220;2&#8243; make_equal=&#8220;on&#8220; _builder_version=&#8220;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8220;default&#8220; background_color=&#8220;#F4F4F4&#8243; custom_margin=&#8220;||||false|false&#8220; custom_padding=&#8220;20px|20px|20px|20px|false|false&#8220; border_radii=&#8220;on|20px|20px|20px|20px&#8220; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220; theme_builder_area=&#8220;post_content&#8220;][et_pb_column type=&#8220;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8220;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8220;default&#8220; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220; theme_builder_area=&#8220;post_content&#8220;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8220;4.21.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8220;default&#8220; custom_padding=&#8220;||||false|false&#8220; global_colors_info=&#8220;{}&#8220; theme_builder_area=&#8220;post_content&#8220;]<\/p>\n<h4>The Solution<\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The change from BPC Standard to BPC Embedded does not correspond to a migration in the usual sense, but rather places high demands on a re-design and a conceptual reconstruction of the planning solution.
