Loading data with schedule details

You can load financial data, including schedule details, into Budgeting & Planning.

Improved handling of group currencies

All currencies that are defined as group currencies are also set as entity currencies. This applies only if you have activated the Financial Consolidation module.

Adding multiple parent relationships

In the Business Objects editor, you can add multiple parent relationships to a business object record. Previously, this was possible only through importing or uploading.
