Smart SAP Assistant

• Key Concepts: 
  Substitution date is a feature of the Commodity Pricing Engine (CPE) component of SAP’s Global Trade and Financial (GTF) module. It allows users to substitute a different date for the current date when calculating prices for commodities. This is useful when dealing with commodities that have prices that fluctuate over time. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the substitution date feature, users must first set up the CPE component in their SAP system. Once this is done, they can enter the desired substitution date in the CPE settings. The CPE will then use this date instead of the current date when calculating prices for commodities. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up the CPE component, it is important to make sure that the substitution date is set correctly. If it is not set correctly, then the CPE may not be able to calculate prices accurately. Additionally, it is important to keep in mind that the substitution date should be set to a date in the past or future, not the current date.
