Direct BW Query Connectivity Option in Xcelsius

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have just attended Tech Ed-2009 , and found that Xcelsius offer the direct connectivity to Bex Query.

Which Xcelsius version offer this functionility ?

I have Xcesius Enterprise - 2008 at Sp-2 level , however i don't see any direct connectivity option there.

I have seen the interface in tech Ed and there is option of "SAP" on the top left where the file and edit and view appers.

Please help me in finding that version ?

Also is that version is available for trail download ?

Thanks

Ashwani

Hi Ashwani,

This is Murali,one of the Presenter in Teched 09 for Xcelsius.Hope you remember me.

This is available with Xcelsius SP2 2008.

And the prerequistes are....

Front End Patch 901 and 7.01 SP5 backend along with Xcelsius 2008 SP2.

Since Xcelsius and SAP Integration reuses,BEx Open/Save dialog,having Front End Patch 901 and above is a prerequisite.

If you have any other help,just contact me.

Always thanks in advance!

Front End Patch 901 - this patch is for whcich component.

7.01 SP5 - is this BI system patch you are talking about ?

Looking forward for your support.

Hi Ashwani,

This is Business Explorer(BEx) components.I mean this will install BEx Analyzer,Query Designer,WAD and Report Designer in your system.The latest available patch in SMP is Front End Patch 1001.But Xcelsius SAP Integration will work from Front End Patch 901 itself.Hence minimum BEx front End patch 901 is a must.

Yes,you are right. 7.01 SP5 is a BI system patch.

Hope this clarifies you!
