Improve access to SAP data and maintain security
Typically, if a BI report does not meet SAP data download requirements, the next best option is to access the transactional system data with SAP-provided tools such as the table browser (SE16/SE16N/SE17) or the SAP Query (SQ01 or SQVI) tool. These tools can be effective and preserve table-level security, but they can be difficult to use and they do not respect organization-level security. Security concerns generally limit access to these tools and most business users cannot access them. Additionally, SAP query results and reports built using these tools are difficult to deploy on an organization-wide basis and exporting these results to external files, such as Excel or Access, can involve extra manual processing steps.
Winshuttle Query provides a flexible and easy-to-use SAP data extraction tool that organizations can implement quickly and that maintains strict SAP security and governance standards.
