Hi
Logistics Customizing Cockpit (LO Cockpit) allows you to extract data from your logistics applications to your SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP NetWeaver BI) system. This tool, which you access with transaction LBWE, is also available for SAP Business Information Warehouse (SAP BW). Let me introduce you to this tool, explain its benefits, answer some common questions about it, and address some of the most commonly encountered errors
