IBP Forecast models

[carlos_perez8]

Hi all

Does anyone if it is possible to create a custom forecasting algorithm in IBP?

This option was available in SAP APO. You can create a custom GUID in APO.

In IBP it is a longer process to create a custom model.

check page 38 of the current roadmap:

SAP Integrated Business Planning for demand V2002 and V2005

Demand management – Extensibility of forecasting with custom algorithms from R studio
? It will be possible to use customer-specific forecasting algorithms from R studio within SAP Integrated Business
Planning process.

Not as of today. But check the roadmap on using R. What kind of algorithm do you need that is not available?

Hi Irmhild,

Thanks for sharing this! I wasn't aware of such future possibility of using forecast algorithms in RStudio within IBP.

Carlos, you may check the IBP Road Map, slide 38. It's planned to be available in release 2005, but it may still change.

Best regards,
Matheus
