Integration of <strong>PBS</strong> archive add ons:<br />

<strong>NAI</strong>-compatible <strong>PBS</strong> Modules<br />

Are you already using <strong>PBS</strong> archive add ons and now interested in using <strong>NAI</strong><br />

In order to make it possible to use <strong>PBS</strong> archive add ons<br />

together with the <strong>Nearline</strong> <strong>Analytic</strong> <strong>Infrastructure</strong>, <strong>PBS</strong> is<br />

committed to gradually expanding its range of software<br />

modules to include <strong>PBS</strong> <strong>NAI</strong>-compatible modules. The two<br />

<strong>PBS</strong> archive add ons CPCA (Profit Center Accounting) and<br />

CCOPA (Profitability Analysis) are already available. Now,<br />

archive data from both modules can also be indexed and<br />

searched while using <strong>NAI</strong>.<br />

Drilling down to a line item delivers the following result for<br />

a specific item:<br />

Let’s take a closer look at an example involving a profitability<br />

analysis that shows the link between a <strong>PBS</strong> <strong>NAI</strong>-compatible<br />

module and the <strong>Nearline</strong> <strong>Analytic</strong> <strong>Infrastructure</strong>.<br />

Based on a report that lists the revenues from a sales<br />

office, the goal is now to branch off into the line items.<br />

Many of these documents have already been archived. The<br />

documents have been indexed on the <strong>NAI</strong> database.<br />

Figure 15<br />

Nearly all of the line items listed in a report come from<br />

the archive. Nevertheless, obtaining fast access to these<br />

line items is still not a problem because these have been<br />

added to the <strong>NAI</strong> database. This effectively relieves the<br />

load on the operative SAP database.<br />

Other <strong>NAI</strong>-compatible <strong>PBS</strong> archive add ons are currently<br />

under development.<br />
