Xcelsius 2008 SP3 + SAP BW Integration

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We are at BO Enterprise Server Ver 3.1 SP2 Fix Patch 2.5 on OS: AIX 5.3, Xcelsius 2008 SP3.1 and BW 7.0

Xcelsius is unable to connect to BW. Msg we receive is..... "The system you are currently connected to is not BW 7.02 or newer. Please disconnect and choose a different system".......Our BW upgrade is not scheduled soon.

As a work around QaaWS was opted to access live data. While accessing Enterprise server, we got a msg....... "you are trying to connect to a server which version is superior to XI 3.1. you may encounter unexpected issues. We recommend to connect to an XI 3.1 server"...... We proceeded and successfully create WSDL URLs but Drop down list of "Method" found to be emptywhen tried access it in Data Manager in Xcelsius.

How to make Xcelsius work in our set up?

Thanks in advance for any help.

hi,

when you want to connect directly to BW you need at least BW 7.01 SP05

Thanks Ingo and Bashir.

We had client tools at lower SP level compared to Server. After matching the levels QaaWS is functioning well..

Thanks for your help.

Vankeet,

Did Xcelsius ever worked with your current existing BW netweaver 7 system?

There are some prerequisites are mentioned in this SAP Note:

Have a look at them...
