• Key Concepts: 
  Spend Method is a feature in SAP CRM-MKT Marketing that allows users to manage their marketing budget. It enables users to define the budget for each marketing activity and track the actual spend against the budget. This helps users to monitor their spending and ensure that they are staying within their budget. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use Spend Method, users must first define the budget for each marketing activity. This can be done by entering the budget amount in the “Budget” field of the Spend Method screen. Once the budget is defined, users can then enter the actual spend for each activity in the “Actual Spend” field. The system will then calculate the difference between the budget and actual spend and display it in the “Difference” field. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  It is important to keep track of your spending and ensure that you are staying within your budget. To do this, it is recommended that you regularly review your Spend Method screen and compare your actual spend against your budget. If you find that you are overspending, you should take steps to reduce your spending or adjust your budget accordingly.
