Some of the standard functions that are in SEM-BPS are not there in BW-BPS.

The same holds good with IP as well. However, you can always work around with Fox and ABAP exits.

hi

If you need these functions, it is possible to install SEM component on BW and these functions will be added.

The difference between SEM-BPS 4.0 and BW-BPS 3.5 is about 10 planning functions ( whioch you have listed) that were not migrated to BW-BPS 3.5.

If you need functions such as allocation or account based currency translation, you need SEM-BPS 4.0.

Also BW-BPS seems to have a new forecasting function and some improved status and tracking. The full list of function differences can be found comparing documentation or from product marketing whitepapers available on SDN or ASUG.

Hello,

first of all it would be nice to know your name (first name is ok)...Posting annonymously definitely reduces your chance of getting an answer

There are no equivalant function types in BI-IP for the functions mentioned below. However, you can replace them:

- FOX (for example for Offset, Depreciation, NPV, IRR)

- Distribution function (allocation)
