Published: 18 Dec 2006

What is difference between SAP's logistics information system (LIS) and logistics (LO)?

LIS is an older way of extracting logistics data to BW. It is no longer supported and there will be no additional development by SAP.

LO is the new technology for extracting the same data. It uses cluster tables and V3 updates, whereas LIS uses transparent tables and V2 updates.
