IT at my current clients site decided to replace the existing data mart with SAP, found out at short notice...
Before I was extracting a chunk of data via a text file from the old system to upload in to my own SQL Server ETL process, now I have BEx which would require me running the same query manually 25 + times to get the same data (excel file limit) and then ETL on these 25+ files.
So asked them to extract my query results as a monthly text file, but advised "we are not licensed to directly feed data into a third party system via broadcasting etc."
Is this right? surely a company can extract a text file of their own data as they wish? Sounds incredible if SAP have that much control?
anyone know if a license if needed, roughly how much?
