• Key Concepts: 
  A planning object is a component of the Commercial Project Management (CA-CPD) module in SAP. It is used to define the scope of a project, including the resources, costs, and timeline. Planning objects are used to create a project plan and track progress throughout the project's lifecycle. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use planning objects, first create a project plan that outlines the scope of the project. This plan should include the resources needed, estimated costs, and timeline for completion. Once the plan is created, create a planning object for each task in the project. Each planning object should include information about the task, such as its duration, cost, and resources required. Finally, use the planning objects to track progress throughout the project's lifecycle. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating planning objects, it is important to be as detailed as possible. This will help ensure that all tasks are accounted for and that progress can be tracked accurately. Additionally, it is important to review and update planning objects regularly to ensure that they remain accurate and up-to-date.
