Implementation 2.0 SAP Connector

[tap]

Trying to test the new Implementation 2.0 Connector. After entering the sytem information and clicking ok, I receive this error:

The type initializer for 'Microsoft.Mashup.Engine1.Library.SapBusinessWarehouse.SapBwMicrosoftProviderFactoryService' threw an exception.

I am using a new Windows 10 machine.

The Implementation 2.0 Connector works fine on a Windows 7 machine.

Anyone have any ideas on what the issue is?

Hi @tap,

Do you run the same Power BI desktop version in Windows 10 machine as run in Windows 7? 

Please check if you miss any steps follow this article: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/power-bi/desktop-sap-bw-connector

Hi @tap,

I'm trying to get SAP .NET Connector 3.0 then test on my side. Will update here after finishing test.

Hi @tap,

Based on my test on Windows 10 with Power BI desktop version 2.59.5135.601 64-bit (June 2018), we can use SAP Business Warehouse Application Server with Implementation 2.0 to get data fine without any error occurs. Please install the same connector and desktop version as ours then test again. 

Best Regards,

Hi Qiuyun,

That is the version we have.

They are building us a new desktop to try it one so hopefully it works.

Thanks. tap

The issue was due to security settings on Windows 10 and the SAP download not telling us it could not installl everything.
