  • SAP Business Explorer (SAP BEx)

For all SAP Business Explorer customers that are interested in the future of BEx in the light of our SAP Business Objects premium offerings, here is what you need to know:

Maintenance

• BEx 7.x continues to be delivered with the next SAP NetWeaver BW releases. Currently there is no planned end of life. The maintenance period is renewed with every major BW release.
• BEx 3.5 is part of BW 3.5/SAP NetWeaver 04 and the maintenance cycle is coupled to this release (see SAP note 1410878 - SMP Login required). BEx 3.5 in BW 7.0x and BW 7.3x will be supported as long as BEx 3.5 (NetWeaver 2004) is in extended Maintenance (2013). Afterwards BEX 3.5 is in customer specific Maintenance. Please note that full PAM support of BEx 3.5 cannot be granted by SAP - as Microsoft has removed, e.g., support for some components
  within Windows 7 that had been used by BEx Web Application Designer 3.5.

Coexistence BEx Analyzer and Analysis, edition for MS Office

• You can install BEx and Analysis on a single PC
• Only one add-in can be active in an Excel session (in other words, either BEx or Analysis can be active)
