As organisations continue to convert their SAP ERP systems to S/4HANA, one area that pops up as a roadmap item is how to handle requirements for Planning and Financial Consolidation.

These discussions are made more confusing for SAP customers, because SAP provide a number of different solutions that cover the topics of planning and consolidation, and at first glance it can be difficult to understand which should be used.
