Using TOAD or Hyperion to Query SAP BW?

[Former Member]

Is it possible to use TOAD or Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio to query SAP BW tables? I would really like to be able to use the SAP BW infocubes but not be tied to BEx. Is this possible?

yes it is possible to use TOAD or Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio to query SAP BW tables.you would be able to use the SAP BW infocubes not be tied to BEx as BW will be the backend and TOAD or Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio will be the front end for it.

Could you tell me if there are any additional components that I would have to buy? Could you explain how to connect?

Could anyone tell me what would be required to use TOAD to hit SAP BW tables, well besides TOAD and SAP BW. Are there additional modules or components needed? How would one go about connecting to SAP BW using TOAD or Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio?
