Is BW 7.3 SP08 compatible with BI 4.0 FP3 ?

Dear all,

here is a summary on the situation:

- there are 3 environments:
   > Test : BI 4.0 FP03 Patch 7
      BW 7.3 SP8 (upgraded from SP06)
      Environment with the problem > KO
   > Dev : BI 4.0 FP3 Patch 7
      BW 7.3 SP07
      Environment works fine > OK
   > Sand Box : BI 4.1 Patch3
      BW 7.3 SP8
      Environment works fine > OK

- BEX queries can be run fine within the BEW Designer

- Reports are failing with multiple error message (one if this is "could not connect to datasource")

It may be that the new SP08 version of BW is not compatible with the BI version used in BI 4.0 FP03 (while with the newer BI 4.1 there is no issue).

Any help here is much appreciated.

Samanta,

Can we refer here for our supportability for the corresponding  version in PAM

Hi Mani,

thanks for your reply but I did check the PAR before posting my question..

The only information is that, as a minimum version, for BW 7.30 is SPS03 +.

As I saw it happening before that when a customer uses a too recent software with an older version of BO/BO the problem appear...

That's why I was seeking more info on if this could be the case.

BR,

Sam
