SRM Reporting from S4/HANA without BW

0 Kudos

Hi everyone, We are implementing S4/Hana greenfield and SAP SRM. We need to do reporting from SRM data via Hana without using BW. Does HANA have the ability to report from SRM? How can we make SRM data available to HANA to report of it?

Hi Michael,

Do you have specific requirements to implement SAP SRM next to SAP S/4HANA? Some major parts of SAP SRM scope are now retrofitted to SAP S/4HANA 1809 FPS0 and FPS01 . Maybe this would be your best solution (if the scope fits)

Please understand that SAP HANA is platform with many possibilities, but it is NOT a reporting tool/product. Even if you can bring your data in SAP HANA, you will then need a real reporting tool plugged to it ( E.g SAP BO)

Within SAP S/4HANA, there is an embedded BW but as per our guidelines, it is not recommended to use this embedded BW to do reporting on data which does not originate from the SAP S/4HANA. As best practice: The amount of data persisted in the Embedded BW should not exceed 20% of the overall data volume of the system. If this works for you, it is an alternate solution not to have a separate BW system if it is your constraint.

Best regards

Renaud
