• Key Concepts: 
  Planning Filters are used in SAP Integrated Business Planning (IBP) to define the scope of a planning process. They are used to limit the data that is included in the planning process, allowing users to focus on specific areas of their business. Planning Filters can be used to filter data by product, customer, location, and other criteria. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Planning Filters can be created in IBP by selecting the “Planning Filter” option from the main menu. From there, users can select the criteria they want to use for their filter. Once the filter is created, it can be applied to any planning process in IBP. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a Planning Filter, it is important to consider what data needs to be included in the planning process. It is also important to consider how the filter will affect the results of the planning process. For example, if a filter is too restrictive, it may exclude important data that could affect the results of the planning process.
