Querying SAP BW InfoProvider
Overview
This guide demonstrates querying an SAP BW InfoProvider — such as a DSO, InfoCube, or MultiProvider — using Data Trust. The SAP BW connection profile accesses the BW layer and maps InfoProvider fields to query columns.
Prerequisites
- You are logged in to Data Trust with a Pro-User or Admin Pro-User role.
- An SAP BW connection profile has been configured in the Administration module.
