A lot of SAP customers would benefit from a using PowerBI. A direct connection to SAP ECC would be a powerful addition to the list of connectors. Similar to SFDC a set of models around Order to Cash, Spend Analytics would be a great set of dashboards.

RE: SAP ECC

The interest of Power BI is to avoid creation of BW system for small/medium enterprises like us.
We have Power BI for others databases, but we want to connect it to our SAP ECC.
Such connector would be appreciate.

RE: SAP ECC

A SAP ECC (Application Layer) connector is key for our needs as well. Currently we are using Galvanize (formerly ACL) to extract SAP table data and are exploring other options. The lack of this connector basically removes it for our list.

RE: SAP ECC

Lack of such connector severely limits usefulness of Power BI to our company. Can one of the design team confirm that such feature is going to be implemented (or that it won't be)? Could be really helpful when making a choice of a data visualization tool that we're going to invest in.

RE: SAP ECC

A great limitation of Power BI currently hindering adoption.
We have several cases of functional groups in the business wanting to access SAP ECC via PowerBI but can't...Please consider developing
