+2 SAP ANALYTICS CLOUD HAS BEEN IBCS® CERTIFIED

Shortly before Christmas SAP Analytics Cloud passed the certification assessments. Again, IBCS® features were integrated in the software concept. Because of the strong integration with data and meta-data from SAP sources we see a great opportunity that this product can make IBCS® the visualization standard for financial data in the SAP world.

As expected, the popular IBCS® compliant Excel add-ins Chart-me XLS and Zebra BI successfully passed the re-certification assessments. During re-certification, Zebra BI presented the new ability to roll out full report templates and to integrate with SharePoint.
