• Key Concepts: 
  A comparison database in SAP Business One (SBO) is a tool that allows users to compare different versions of the same data. It stores the differences between the two versions, allowing users to quickly identify changes and make decisions based on the data. The comparison database can be used to compare different versions of a document, such as an invoice or a customer record, or to compare different versions of a report.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the comparison database in SAP Business One, users must first create a comparison database. This can be done by selecting the “Create Comparison Database” option from the “Tools” menu. Once the comparison database is created, users can select two versions of the same data to compare. The differences between the two versions will be displayed in a table format, allowing users to quickly identify changes and make decisions based on the data.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the comparison database in SAP Business One, it is important to remember that only changes between two versions of the same data will be displayed. If there are no changes between two versions, then nothing will be displayed in the comparison database. Additionally, it is important to note that only changes made within SAP Business One will be displayed in the comparison database; changes made outside of SAP Business One will not be displayed.
