Hi Pratick ,

thanks for your answer, my customer won't and upgrade, the situation is they have a 4.7 R/3 and now they want to apply BW 7.0 and we are not sure that it is possible.

Thank you again

Carolina,

Yes running BI 7.0 against a R/3 release 4.7 is no problem at all !

Just check that the PI plugin module is present or otherwise has to be imported to be able

to pull data from R/3 into BI.

Check service marketplase swdc:

Installations and Upgrades" -> Plug-Ins" -> SAP Plug-In" PI" -> PI 2004_1_470.

After installing apply the latest patchlevels for your plugin !

Hi Carolina,

In R/3 4.7, BI 3.5 is integrated, in R/3 ECC 6.0, BI 7.0 logic is integrated. You cannot upgrade only BI without upgrading the whole R/3 system: 4.7 -> ECC 6.0.

This is the downside of integrated scenario's.

To achieve this you should have a standalone netweaver BI landscape next to your R/3 landscape.
