Unable to see SQL Server 2008 option in Designer

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

We are using SQL Server 2008 and BO XI R3. While creating a new universe connection we can see (under microsoft) SQL Server 2005, but not the SQL Server 2008.

How can we see the SQL Server 2008 option. Do we need to change some settings in BO or SQL Server?

Thanks & Regards

What version of XI 3.x are you on? Microsoft SQL Server Analysis Services 2008 is only supported with XI 3.1 and higher. The supported platforms document for XI 3.1 is [here|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/boc/index?rid=/library/uuid/60cdb229-d874-2b10-18ac-ed2f46873753&overridelayout=true].
