From SAP BusinessObjects Cloud (SAP BO), dScribe extracts the following information:

• Reports

• Universes

• BEx queries (including formulas)

• Columns

• Intra-connector data lineage --> e.g. dependencies between Universes and reports

Since SAP BO is typically hosted in a private network, setup of the BO connector requires configuring our SAP BO agent. The whole setup typically takes less than 2 hours. More info on how to set up the integration can be found here.

Both SAP BWonHANA and SAP BW/4HANA are available as native connectors in dScribe.

S/4HANA is SAP's flagship ERP solution. The platform includes an embedded analytics suite, with data modeling based on CDS views.

From S/4HANA, dScribe extracts the following information:

• CDS Views, including all attributes and measures

• Data lineage --> e.g. dependencies between CDS views (incl. multiple layers) and SAP tables
