Topic: Connecting S4HANA with Power BI
SAP has revamped its flagship ERP product and released S4HANA as the foundation layer for digital transformation. Although majority of code base has been rewritten from legacy to S4HANA, there are instances where components are retained and embedded. Power BI can consume data via existing connection methods HANA Database & BW Application Layer. Each method will utilize different back end engines accordingly.
