As of the 2.0.55 SC release of IBM Planning Analytics in July 2020, TM1 Web is installed with the IBM Planning Analytics Spreadsheet Services installer. TM1 Web is no longer part of the web tier within the Planning Analytics Local installer.

What is Planning Analytics Spreadsheet Services (PASS)?

Planning Analytics Spreadsheet Services replaces TM1Web within IBM Cognos TM1 service. The primary reason for this change is due to TM1Web’s similarities between Planning Analytics for Excel (PAfE) and Planning Analytics Workspace (PAW) versus the TM1 server. There is a dependency between the version of TM1Web and Planning Analytics for Excel, rather than between TM1Web and the TM1 Server. New features and capabilities being developed for Planning Analytics for Excel releases will require an update to TM1Web to support both products . This change allows updates to TM1Web to be delivered in parallel with updates to Planning Analytics for Excel.
