  • SAP BW Bridge

    Several new features are available for SAP BW bridge:

    • To ease the transition from SAP BW to the SAP Data Warehouse Cloud, you can now transfer data models from SAP BW or SAP BW∕4HANA to SAP BW bridge via shell conversion. This is supported for SAP BW 7.3x, 7.40, and 7.50 and for SAP BW∕4HANA 2021. Shell conversion can be used to transfer metadata such as DataStore objects, InfoObjects, transformations, and Data Transfer Processes. It does not include the transfer of existing data sets. After the transfer, you can load data from the original source systems, the SAP BW system, or the SAP BW∕4HANA system.
