For anyone who is following this thread - the feature is complete now. It is being rigorously tested at the moment and will be officially included in the upcoming 10.3 release.

Hi, Tamas,

There are good news. The feature is almost ready. We are in the process of testing it. We will release it before the end of the month (along with the service release) if we manage to confirm that it is working properly.

It would be very much helpful if you could provide us with some sample data to test it with (I did setup a trial SAP server, but I could not get real data into it, apart from cubes, dimensions and measures - I've never worked with the administrative tool before). The address to the sap xmla service and credentials for it should be enough. Do not expose any sensitive data through the service. Any dummy data would do. If the service returns non null result for MDX queries it would be perfect. You could send the credentials to my email: adyulgerov@infragistics.com if you do not want them published in the forum.

All the best,

Atanas

Hi Atanas,

May I kindly ask if there are news on the topic? Can I help somehow?

Many thanks and best regards,

Hi Atanas,

May I ask if it is likely that this XMLA connection via SOAP will work with SAP
by the end of August? I'll have to do some sort of a presentation and
I must know if I will be able to include your product or not.

Many thanks and best regards,
Tamas

Hi Atanas,

This is exactly what I did for half a day yesterday... it is pretty complicated. Luckily I found two step by step guides:

I'm not a BW expert, so it was SAP (slow and painful) for me too :)

Thanks and best regards,

Tamás
