Need Solution Manager key when Installing IDES BW 7.0

[Former Member]

I need youe help.

I have ordered CD: IDES BW 7.0 but When I install it for testing in test server, it request Solution manager key.

When I access to SAP market place to order SAP solution manager 4.0 CD, It shows the message "No installation for sw-package SOLMAN, please contact contract department!".

How can I get the CD, or get the solution manager key for this test IDES BW (Netweaver 2004 SR2).

Thank you in advanced.

I just installed the IDES ECC 6.0 and that also required the Solution Manager key. All new installs of almost everything requires you to first install the solution manager. You must request a solution manager installation from SAP. There is no charge for this, but there must be a installation number on file to get it. I had to fax in INSTALLATION REQUEST form that was sent to me by SAP in my Service market place inbox. They shipped it from Germany and I got it in 4 days.

Hope this helps
