Data Services 4.0 SP2 compatibility with BW 7.4

[rishabh_singhania]

Hello All,

We are currently working on SAP BODS 4.0 SP and BW 7.3.

BW is the target system.

We are planning to upgrage from BW 7.3 to BW 7.4.

I wanted to know if there are any dependency of this upgrage on current version of SAP BODS.

Also it would be great if someone can highlight the combatibility between DS4.0 sp2 and BW 7.4 , any known issues.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi,

From the PAR/PAM of DS 4.0/4.1,  SAP NetWeaver BW 7.4 as a data source is not supported.

Hello Nawfal,

Thanks for replying.

True it is no where mentioned in PAM that BW 7.4 is suppoprted for BODS 4.0/4.1.

So should we conclude that BW 7.4 is not compatible with any version of BODS.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello,

Please suggest if BODS 4.0 SP2 is compatible with BW 7.31.

If BODS 4.0 SP2 is not compatible then suggest the BODS version which is compatible with BW 7.31.

Hello,

Thank you everyone for the support.

I got the compatibility confirmed with support team.

Currently no version of BODS is compatible with BW 7.4.

and all the versions of BODS which are compatible with bw 7.3 will also be compatible with BW 7.31.
