Use

As of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SPS 6, the open hub destination has its own maintenance interface and can be connected to the data transfer process as an independent object. As a result, all data transfer process services for the open hub destination can be used.  You can now select an open hub destination as a target in a data transfer process.  In this way, the data is transformed as are all other BI objects.

In addition to the InfoCube, InfoObject, and DataStore object, you can also use DataSources and InfoSources as templates for the field definitions of the open hub destination.

The open hub destination now has its own tree under Modeling in the Data Warehousing Workbench. This tree is structured by InfoAreas.

Restrictions

It is not currently possible to use MultiProviders as the source for the open hub destination.

Effects on Existing Data

The open hub service previously provided with the InfoSpoke can still be used. We recommend, however, that you use the new technology to define new objects.
