Jedox
has expanded its SAP Palo connectivity with the latest version of the Palo ETL
3.1 extraction tool.
Palo
is a leading in-memory OLAP open source solution for planning and forecasting
with native connectors to major ERP systems, including SAP.
The
solution allows for the movement of data between Palo and the ERP to ensure
consistency, accuracy and traceability of the numbers.
Previously,
Palo ETL enabled the extraction of data directly from the SAP Business
Warehouse (BW) for entry in the OLAP database Palo.
With
the enhanced Palo SAP connectivity, it is now no longer necessary to refer to
SAP BW for OLAP analyses using SAP data.
SAP
R/3 and ERP system users who do not require full BW functionality can now use
the Palo Suite and Palo SAP Connectivity as an easy and very flexible
alternative to a BI platform which can be installed quickly and is ideal for
use by professionals.
By
expanding Palo SAP Connectivity to include SAP R/3 and SAP ERP systems, Jedox
has met the needs of many customers looking for cost-efficient planning,
analysis and reporting tools for their SAP system data.
With
access to SAP BW and SAP R/3 ERP-systems, Palo can now be integrated optimally
into SAP landscapes.
SAP
data is extracted simply and effectively at the table level or through a
generic RFC /BAPI interface.
The
ETL process is fully modelled using a graphic web front-end.
The
Palo SAP Connectivity is an additional component of Palo ETL and is offered
exclusively as part of the Palo Suite Premium.
Palo
SAP Connectivity replaces the Palo ETL SAP Connector, which only enabled access
to SAP BW.
Palo
is available in Australia
through implementation partner Naked Data.
Naked
Data, with Palo developer Jedox, are together introducing Palo to Australian customers
this March in a series of breakfast briefings.
