We had SAP out at our office for a session of "about to implement more DP and SNP, so is it worth it, ie what is the future", and then hinted that they were building a new demand planning type system, which may replace DP. If it works. For those that remember APO early versions, it takes a while to get things to work, though they still said that APO DP will be supported until 2020, and likely longer assuming lots of companies are still using it. It did not sound like there was a new SNP or PPDS being built. The new HANA tools all seem to mostly sit on top of the current APO DP, so a bit of life left in the old girl yet hopefully.
