Why we need BI Reports with XI-BI Integration ?

21 Views

Hi

I am aware of following difference between ABAP Reports & BW Reports -->

*) ABAP Report is real time & one can provide the output of the line items for other TCodes ( like to generate the Sales Order )

*) BW Reports are not real time & records comes in batch mode.

And If I need to provide the output to generate orders ( lets assume ) than I have to send them back to SAP R/3 via XI.

Now if I go by man-hours needed to develop the report in ABAP and BW. They are less in ABAP as we don't need development in XI & BW.

If I am planning to generate the reports from SAP R/3 data which would be efficient ABAP or BW report ?

Can any of you discuss your scenario in which you integrate SAP R/3 with BW & what was the requirement & why it was not possible with the ABAP reports.
