• Key Concepts: 
  Requested Evaluation Key Date is a feature of the Commodity Pricing Engine (CPE) component of SAP's Global Trade and Finance (GTF) module. It allows users to specify a date on which the CPE should evaluate pricing data for a particular commodity. This date can be used to ensure that the pricing data is up-to-date and accurate.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the Requested Evaluation Key Date feature, users must first select the commodity they wish to evaluate. Once the commodity has been selected, users can enter the desired date in the Requested Evaluation Key Date field. The CPE will then evaluate pricing data for that commodity as of that date.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the Requested Evaluation Key Date feature, it is important to remember that the date entered must be in the past. If a future date is entered, the CPE will not be able to evaluate pricing data for that commodity. Additionally, it is important to note that the CPE will only evaluate pricing data as of the specified date; any changes made after that date will not be reflected in the evaluation.
