BPC 11, the planning and consolidation is the same?

[alan_valenzuela]

Hello, I have the following questions, the standard version for consolidation we use a consolidation model and to do the planning a financial model is normally used, but with BPC embedded, now the planning do it in BPC embedded.

With this version according to what I understood BPC embedded (BW-IP) no longer exists, my question is, if with this new version for both consolidation and planning it is use the traditionals models in BPC? o Does BPC 11 use a new way of working these points?

Here is a blog with some details regarding BW-IP and PAK and BPC11,
