Is SSO connection via Power BI Gateway possible for SAP BW datasource(DS)

As per the latest post from the microsoft it is possible as there are no DS exception mentioned.

https://powerbi.microsoft.com/en-us/blog/on-premises-data-gateway-june-update-is-now-available/

 

But I upgraded the enterprise gateway to the latest June edition ,but the option for "USE SSO VIA KERBEROS FOR DIRECT QUERY " is not present for the SAP BW DS.

It is present for SAP HANA( pls refer the screenshot below) .There are some older posts which says that for some particular DS the SSO is possible via the gateway.

Am I missing anything or the latest gateway dooes not allow for SSO thru SAP BW ?

@sourpowerbi,

Based on this article, only SQL Server, SAP Hana and Teradata support SSO connection via gateway. I am afraid that you are not able to use SAP BW with SSO connection currently.
