Which RFC module/s should I use to access BW tables?

[Former Member]

Hello,

I am in a proccess of creating an adaptive RFC model in Web Dynpro.

I am in a stage where I need to select my RFC modules.

My requirement is to access our BW tables.

I see many BAPI's and functions under the SAP Business Information Warehous tree. Which one should I use for needs?

Hi Roy,

You should use BI SDK for Java to connect to BW from Web Dynpro (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how%20to%20use%20the%20bi%20java%20sdk%20in%20a%20web%20dynpro%20application.pdf)

Hi Maksim,

I am familiar with this solution but unfortunately I wasn't able to complete the tutorial you reffered to at the 1st link. I asked few times here for a solution but couldn't get any. Perhaps you could help me with it...

I have configured the BI connector on the WAS and created the sample project there but my code falls on NullPointerException when I try to get a connection from the Factory since the factory wasn't initiated. I assume it is a configuration an the WAS but I have configured the connection as needed at the tutorial. Any idea why?
