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Many of these documents have already been archived.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 />
