• Key Concepts: 
  Probability is a measure of the likelihood that an event will occur. In the context of SAP's Corporate Performance Monitor (FIN-SEM-CPM), probability is used to assess the risk associated with a particular financial decision. It is calculated by taking into account the expected outcomes of a given situation and assigning a numerical value to each outcome. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use probability in FIN-SEM-CPM, users must first define the parameters of the situation they are assessing. This includes defining the expected outcomes, assigning numerical values to each outcome, and calculating the probability of each outcome occurring. Once these steps are completed, users can then use the probability values to assess the risk associated with a particular financial decision. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When calculating probability in FIN-SEM-CPM, it is important to consider all possible outcomes and assign numerical values that accurately reflect their likelihood of occurring. Additionally, it is important to remember that probability is not an exact science and that there is always some degree of uncertainty associated with any given situation.
