Solution Vision for Planon Real Estate domain and other Planon domains
This overall vision for how Planon and SAP concepts should work together on other domains/modules of Planon, is currently still being designed.
Conceptual functional vision on the integration
 | Grey items are currently not available or at least not completely. |
The SAP Business Technology Platform (BTP), offers:
• Master Data Integration (MDI)
• Integration Flow (iFlow)
In the Master Data Integration, all objects are part of the SAP One Domain Model (ODM), which can be either provided or consumed by either Planon or SAP. Master Data Integration is designed for mostly static data that does not change much, so it is not intended for transactional data like Orders or Amounts.
For transactional data, the BTP has the possibility to use iFLows which can automate additional data transfers between Planon and SAP. For iFlows to work, exchanged data must be enriched with relevant Master Data that is provided by SAP via the BTP. For example, an Order must be linked to a Cost Center of SAP to be able to create a Purchase Order.
As part of the Solution Vision, iFlows will be available to process the data linked to, for example Orders, Budgets and Energy consumption. For this, Planon must develop functionality in order to consume new Master Data items from BTP.
The integration between Planon and SAP BTP is handled by the Planon Real Estate Management for SAP S/4HANA app and is included in the Planon Real Estate Management for SAP S/4HANA solution
