SAP S4 Challenges for InfoProviders

There isn't a dedicated Fiori app specifically for listing InfoProviders in SAP S/4HANA, as the traditional concept of InfoProviders (like InfoCubes and DSOs) is mostly replaced by CDS Views, Analytical Queries, and Embedded BW objects. However, you can use the following Fiori apps to find relevant reporting data sources:

1. View Data Sources and Queries in S/4HANA

  • App: View Browser (F2330)
    • Use this app to search for CDS Views and Analytical Queries available in S/4HANA.
    • You can filter by application component, data category (cube, dimension, transactional), or keywords.
    • Search for views starting with:
      • I_ (Interface Views)
      • C_ (Cube Views for reporting)
      • P_ (Projection Views)

2. Find Analytical Queries (BW-Style Reporting)

  • App: Custom Analytical Queries (F2804)

    • Allows you to find and create Analytical Queries, which act as InfoProviders for reporting.
    • You can explore queries based on standard SAP S/4HANA CDS Views.
  • App: Query Browser (F2580)

    • Lists available Analytical Queries and allows you to execute them.
    • These queries are based on CDS Views, replacing the need for traditional InfoProviders.

3. Find SAP BW Objects in Embedded BW

If you have Embedded BW enabled in your S/4HANA system:

  • App: Data Source Browser (Available in some systems)
    • Helps identify ODP sources, ADSOs, and Composite Providers used in Embedded BW.
  • Alternatively, use Transaction RSA1 in GUI to explore InfoProviders.
