Kudo KingpinPower BI on SAP
We are working on some opportunity moving from SAP Business object to Power BI. On this context do you have any collaterals.
- Migrating any reporting (preferably BOBJ) to PowerbI approach ?
- Any technical paper, white paper on PowerBI on SAP BW, HANA, BEx etc. describing the challenges, pitfalls, recommended approach.
Any help would be great on this context.
Hi HansKristiansen,
1. Migrating any reporting (preferably BOBJ) to PowerbI approach ?
Based on my research, currently there is no direct approach to migrate SAP BOBJ to Power BI.
2. Any technical paper, white paper on PowerBI on SAP BW, HANA, BEx etc. describing the challenges, pitfalls, recommended approach.
There are two official document which you can have a look:
Use the SAP BW Connector in Power BI Desktop
Use SAP HANA in Power BI Desktop

Hi,
I really appreciate information shared above. It’s of great helpful for me even i am also searching for this topic.
Thanks
I believe the original question was if there is a recommended strategy or approach of migrating to PowerBI. The 2 official documents you have shared do not answer this question. I will come up with an explanation once I have understood this aspect.

One option you might look at is to use the Simplement Data Liberator:
This platform surfaces ECC/CRM tables easily and effortlessly. Avoid BO tools, just go straigh to SQl Server and Power BI
