The specific predictive help for multi actions will be public to all tenants by second half of February planned. Run Data Actions, Multi Actions, and Allocations Relevant, existing help links to your questionĪutomate a Planning Workflow Using Multi Actions Some colleagues are enjoying a deserved break due to Chinese New Year so this might take a bit of time. I can double check my understanding if need be.

It's my current understanding though that when executing a multi actions (either through a planning trigger in a story / application or using a schedule) a standard planning license is enough.

Similarly for creating / updating multi actions, a planning professional license is required. Of course when you are using predictive planning, someone needs to create the planning models and this person requires a planning professional license. Hi Martijn van Foeken on my side I am not aware of any limitations. Have fun scheduling your Predictive Planning model. I hope you are excited as much about this feature as I am.

Now we can see our schedule for Predictive Planning in the calendar, and it will be automatically executed every quarter for the next two years. Then we click on “Ok” followed by “Create”. That is why I selected as shown in this screenshot. In my case I want this predictive scenario to run once a quarter for the next 2 years. We again give it a name like ”Schedule Predictive Planning” and select our start date. Therefore, we select under the “+” icon “Multi Action Task”. We want to apply our Predictive Planning “Multi Action Task” regularly. In the calendar, we can see all the scheduled tasks and their execution time. For this Hands-On tutorial it doesn’t matter what you choose, so I leave it up to you. Hence, we select “Calendar” in the menu on the left, under the three dots.īefore we can leave our story, the tool asks if we want to publish our data. Ideally, we want to schedule it to run automatically. Of course, we won’t trigger our predictions always manually from the story. Since we changed nothing in the data, don’t be surprised if the results look like the old predictions from the Predictive Planning Hands-On Tutorial. If you did everything correctly you will get your new predictions in the table. In the builder tab on the right we can now select our “Multi Action”.Īfter this, we can click the start button for our selected “Multi Action”. Under the “+” Icon we select “Planing Trigger”. If not, we select the “Edit” button on the top right. We open our Planning Story and make sure we are in edit mode. In our case, we are using this step to check if our “Multi Action” runs smoothly. This is handy when you want to trigger it manually as a controller from your SAC Planning Dashboard. We could now use this “Multi Action” and include it in a story. Then we click the “Save” icon on the top left. Then we select “Model 1” as “Predictive Model” and “Actuals” as ”Version To Save Forecast”. We navigate to our folder with our predictive models and select the “product_planning_forecast” we already trained as described in the Predictive Planning Hans-On. On the right we can now give this Step a name, I decided for “Predictive Planning”. For our case, we select “Add Predictive Step” on the top left. “Multi Actions” are powerful, and you can perform a lot more. On the right, we can give our “Multi Action” a name like “Predictive Planning Scheduling” and we could add a description. Depending on the size of your screen it can be found in the menu directly or in my case under the 3 three dots.įrom the “Multi Actions” screen we select “Create New”. In the menu on the left, we select “Multi Action”. In this case we have everything prepared so we can start with the actual scheduling for the predictive model.

You need a Predictive Planning Model before you can following this one.

So, if you haven’t done this yet, please follow the steps in the hands-on tutorial. In this post, we created a Predictive Planning Model, which is the basis for the following steps. Luckily this is now possible, and in this post, it is my pleasure to show you how 😊. So, they give me the prediction every quarter for instance. Yet, when I gained trust in the predictions, I want to run them automatically regularly.

For the first few times, this might make sense. Consequently, I had to go back to my Predictive Scenario and restart it by hand. I could only manually trigger my predictions. However, until recently, one thing made my life a bit hard. Predictive Planning in SAP Analytics Cloud is the most popular Augmented Analytics Use Case for my customers and me.
