As finance teams evaluate the future of SAP BPC, organizations must consider how planning, close, consolidation, reporting, reconciliations, workflows, and analytics will work together across their broader finance architecture. In this episode of CPM Customer Success, Andy Smetana explores where SAP Analytics Cloud may fit into the roadmap, when S/4HANA Finance for group reporting may become part of the discussion, and why some organizations are evaluating OneStream as a unified alternative.
