    Changed status to future consideration. Better integration between Planning Analytics and CPLEX is currently targeted for Cloud Pak for Data. It's unlikely that we will ever provide direct integration (out of the box) in Planning Analytics Local 2.0.

    I've set this enhancement to future consideration as we are probably more than a year before before we have a version of TM1 database that is fully integrated into Cloud Pak for Data.

    Also there should not be any license requirement to provide the Optimisation via CPLEX in the Planning Analytics. Or should be bundled within the package

    The PA can be linked via REST, we need the CPLEX to be accessed over REST too
