Are you a consultant or a customer and unsure about which apps to choose during implementation of SAP S/4HANA or SAP S/4HANA Cloud? Then, feature comparisons could be useful in your decision-making process.
What is a feature comparison exactly?
Product Cost Planning (in SAP S/4HANA) and Inventory Accounting (in SAP S/4HANA Cloud) both offer numerous apps. These apps may vary in their underlying technology (HTML GUI, WebDynpro, or Fiori) and features, but there may also be similarities in their functional scope.The feature comparison is designed in table format so you can easily see which features are available just like product comparisons on your favorite online shopping websites. The table also contains links to the SAP Fiori Apps Reference Library and the related app documentation.
Example: Apps for managing costing runs
Imagine that you need an app to create costing runs and you’re already familiar with the functionality of the classic SAP GUI transaction Edit Costing Runs (CK40N). But, did you know that the Fiori app Manage Costing Runs – Estimated Costs (F1865) offers additional features, such as filtering options (by status, costing variant, or valuation variant) and the possibility to schedule costing run steps for multiple costing runs at once?

For SAP S/4HANA Cloud (as of release 2202) take a look at the following feature comparisons available for Inventory Accounting :
