How will SAP BW and HANA merge/melt over time?

Though SAP swears HANA would not replace BW but there are good reasons to believe the in-memory analytics platform(HANA) will eventually absorb BW. So, I think it is more accurate to say that SAP BW and HANA are begin to merge.
Any expert in this, can throw some light and educate us if it's so and how?
Thank you.

There are plenty discussion on this topic, but I'll recognize the information might be pretty scattered over very specific ones. Here is my POV in a few bullets:
BW disappearing as a separate box doesn't necessarily mean BW disappearing as a modeling paradigm. In S4, where most operational reporting and analytics are performed on the fly on top of the transactional data, several scenarios are implemented as BW artifacts on top of Virtual Info Providers.
In the long run, you'll have the option to have fully managed modeling (BW LSA++ modeling paradigm) and the fully open SQL based modeling paradigm (based on HANA catalog artifacts & Information views). Both are interchangeable and you could have one single reporting model going through different objects of both modeling paradigms.
There will still be cases where you might need a consolidated centralized DW (e.g. consolidating data from several different sources). In such cases, you won't need to physically replicate data from any HANA source, you will simply virtualize the data from the other HANA Boxes (SDA).
With HANA SPS09 and even more with SPS10+, there will be native DW features in HANA that will help more and more the construction of the native HANA DW scenario. BW will also leverage those features. Look for HANA Data Warehousing Foundation, which include several services such as DDO and DLM.

  • Termination Workbench how will it work and factors.

    Hi,
    Termination Workbench how will it work and what are the factors need to consider at the time of implementation.
    Regards,
    BusinessSuite.

    Hi,
    When we are implementing the Termination Workbench we have to consider the following activies.
    Purpose
    This component helps in terminating an employee from the payroll.
    The Termination Workbench computes the various types of payments due to, or payable by the employee at the time of termination. For example, Gratuity, Superannuation, Leave Encashment or any pending Reimbursable allowances.
    The termination of employment may be due to the:
    Resignation of an employee
    Retirement of an employee
    Voluntary retirement or premature retirement by an employee
    Integration
    1.Contract Elements info type (0016) u2013 Where you maintain the details of the employment contract, between the company and the employee. Termination Workbench determines the notice period for termination using this info type.
    2.Date Specifications info type (0041) u2013 Where you maintain the date of Normal Retirement of the employee. Termination Workbench computes the relief on Voluntary Retirement Service benefit for the employee using the data maintained in this info type.
    3.Personal IDs info type (0185) u2013 Termination Workbench obtains the Gratuity and Superannuation Trust details for the employee from the info type.
    4.Additional Payments info type (0015) u2013 After the transaction is complete, Termination Workbench updates the payment records in the Additional Payments info type (0015). The updated amounts are disbursed to the employee through the payroll run, along with other components of the salary.
    5.Actions info type (0000) u2013 When an employee is terminated using the Termination Workbench, the Termination Workbench delimits the employee in the Actions info type (0000).
    Features
    The Termination Workbench comprises of the following processes:
    Termination transaction (PC00_M40_TERM)- Using this transaction you can specify the details of employee Gratuity, Superannuation, Leave Encashment, Voluntary Retirement Services and Reimbursable Allowances.
    The transaction reads the relevant info types and determines the amounts payable to the employee. For example, amounts payable as Gratuity, Superannuation, Notice Pay and Leave Encashment. You can modify these amounts using the transaction. When you execute the transaction, it updates the relevant wage types in the Additional Payments info type (0015). This transaction also creates a batch session for delimiting the info type records.
    Batch Input monitoring transaction (SM35) u2013 Using this transaction, you can execute the batch session created by the Termination transaction (PC00_M40_TERM). Upon execution, the batch session delimits the info types configured for delimiting, in the info group.
    The batch session also delimits the employee in the Actions info type (0000). You can set the Return Action Type for Termination Workbench feature (40TRM) for the Action Type to be defaulted in Actions info type (0000) when the info type record gets delimited.
    Payroll u2013 when you execute the payroll for the period in which the employee was terminated, the payroll processes the amounts payable at the time of termination. For example, Notice Pay, Gratuity, Superannuation and Leave Encashment. The payroll also calculates the applicable exemptions.
    Warm Regards,
    Devi.,

  • HT1338 I am having trouble installing updates on my mac this is the error code the pops upThe update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that

    can some one help me? I have been trying to update my MAC and it will not download because this message come up
    (The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.)

    For anyone that comes across this. I managed to fix the problem. It had something to do with the date on my computer. Mavericks installer apparently does a date check of some sort and that is where the error is coming from. Open terminal and check the system date. It may be wrong. Another poster in the forums told me how to to check the date and change it. Click here for the link to the explanation. Be careful because the date is in a weird format.

  • The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.

    How can I solve this? Every time I have the option to update an application I receive the same notification: "The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs"

    Can we eliminate one minor possibility: are you in the UK and using Virgin Media cable connection? I ask because the latest 'Superhub' firmware is corrupting large downloads for some people.

    Can't download the latest iTunes. A window pops up... The update could not be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading. The update will be downloaded and checked again the next time that Software Update runs.

    If I have lost my music collection I will be switching platforms ASAP. It is insane that Apple has updates seemingly every day for their products.

    I was in your same situation with 14 downloads and 14 attempts. 
    You have to make sure that your Mac is booting into 64 bit mode.  You can make sure of this by going into System Preferences and scrolling down to 'Software' and making sure that you are booding with 64 bit Kexts. 
    If not, restart while holding the 6 and 4 keys down until you see the spinning gear wheel and try installng again. 
    BUT, what I also did was to go into Applications, click on the Lion installer, Get Info, and give yourself custom priviliges to Read And Write. 
    I did this simultaneously, and I don't know what function did it, but it worked for me, with no further downloads of the installer. 
    Good luck!

  • How to stream Webcam and Desktop at the same time?

    Hey Guy,
    I just got a little Problem with  FMLE... I want to stream live during a Game, but I dont know how to stream Desktop and Webcam at the same time ^^. The streaming Platform i want to use is twitch.tv.. the most common Gamin Platform I think...
    I got an IMac i7.
    Pls help me   I dont get how all these ProGamer do it -.-
    Thanks in advance

    You're going to need additional software or hardware.  If you're running a Macintosh, try CamTwist.  It's free and allows you to create virtual "cameras" from just about anything you can see on your computer.  It's a bit clunky getting used to the interfact and how it works, however.
    Hardware solutions (like scanline converters and video switchers) can get pretty expensive.  So you may want to go with a piece of software that can handle on-the-fly video compositing/switching.  There are two applications that come to mind right off the bat -- and lucky for you, both of them can also output to a live streaming server. 
    Wirecast is a popular choice, although the pricing starts around $500.  It's Macintosh/Windows.
    A very popular choice among gamers is XSplit (Windows only) and is a subscription-based model (you pay a small fee by the month, quarter, or year).  XSplit has some very impressive compression happening under the hood, and was originally designed for gamers who wanted to share their desktop, XBOX, or PS3 adventures... all while also being able to lay over banners, PIP (picture-in-picture) of themselves, or anythhing else they wanted to clutter the screen with.
    If you're running on Windows, give XSplit at shot.  It can easily handle your desktop (or most anything else) as a "camera" as well as being able to lay your webcam on top of the desktop feed.

  • Will SAP remain as market leader for long time?

    Hi
    I have just started  Masters of Business ERP SAP at victoria University. But  my background is
    accounting and have intermediate knowledge of software industry . From my understanding
    there is always something new replacing existing market in software industry. I just want to
    know about the sustainability of  SAP career . will it sustain in the market for long time?
    Regards
    Shafiq

    Hello, I can assure you that you will not suffer from hunger or anything like that... there are thousands of companies running SAP accross the globe. And if, and that will not happen, somebody would threaten SAP, understand how much money depends on SAP systems. It would take years to get rid of the vendor (SAP) lock-in for all those companies.
    Ok, that was the practical approach. On the other hand I do believe in quality and sustainability of what we do here and feel no fear about my future. Even if some kind of a problem appear, SAP would teach you so much about business processes and how companies are runned, that you could immediately switch to some kind of management/ analyst job. t least that is how I feel about it.
    Hope that helps a little, I wanted to offer something in return for your answer to my question earlier,
    maybe you would like to talk some more one day?
    Cheers Otto

  • How to record midi and audio at the same time?

    Hello,
    I have a Roland sh-201 synth and Logic 9. When I use patches from the sh-201, it will record it via audio. What if I wanted to record the audio but also have the midi information as well? How would I be able to accomplish this? My synth is connected via USB which carries both midi and audio. Sorry for my poor english, but any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You.

    Hi
    Logic will record both audio and MIDI at the same time, but you *MUST* have the Software Instrument/MIDI track selected in the Arrange Track List.
    The audio track must be 'Record Ready':

  • How will my .json and .html backed up bookmarks import?

    Firefox 3.6.28
    OS 10.4.11
    Ibook G4
    Hi,
    I back up regularly both as .json and as .html. With the .json back up, I remove the date each time I back up so there's an over-write and there's only one .json back up file in my Backup Folder.
    I've never had to import bookmarks back into Firefox, but I've had a crash that's wiped out my Firefox bookmarks in the Firefox program where I kept the bookmarks in a very carefully indexed system of categories and menus that dropped down from the toolbar.
    When I import .json or .html back into Firefox, will my menubars re-set to the way I had them? I remember from a long time ago using Safari, I restored backed up favorites, and what I got was a long list of titled links which wasn't anything like the way I'd set the favorites up in the first place. I hope I don't get the restoration like that this time with Firefox. In addition, when I press 'Import' from the file menu, I'm only given the option of importing from Safari. That's not what I want to do. I have "Backups" in a designated folder in my Documents in the Finder and that's where I need to pull them from.
    There's something about "Profile" regarding Firefox that I've not known about that may have been something I needed to do in relation to Bookmarks.
    I would appreciate any help you could provide to help me my bookmarks back in place.
    Thanks,
    Rafael
    PS Regarding "Troubleshooting Information".
    I had to do it manually because the function doesn't support my veersion of Firefox.
    "# A new window will open. Click on a button called Copy text to clipboard."
    Did That
    "# Paste the info in the text box below."
    Did That
    * Click on the empty box above this text.
    I don't see an "empty box above this text." The box above isn't empty. It contains my question.
    So the following don't make sense because I already Pasted below.
    * Look at the top of your screen, and click the menu item called Edit.
    * A small box will open. Click on the item called Paste. Alternatively, type Ctrl+V or Command+V.
    * Some text will appear in the empty box.

    Create a desktop shortcut with -P "profile" appended to the target to launch Firefox with each profile.<br />
    Then you can set in the profile manager which profile to use by default if you click a link in an external program.
