Explorer 4 - Universes

[rogermirandae]

I have a problem. I recently installed SAP EDGE 4.0 and Explorer is working fine with Excel documents but when I want to work with universes Explorer doesnt recognize the universes because I cant see them. I go to CMC to chek them and they are there. It is estrange because the "default universes (efashion)" are not in EXPLORER too.

Can somebody help me please?

Hi Rogelio,

The reason you are not seeing them is probably because they are the old UNV type. Explorer 4.0 can only use the new type, UNX. You will need to use IDT client tool  to convert them. Also Explorer is strictly 64 bit so no Access database source universe like Efashion will not work even if you convert it.
