What does other companies with COPA reporting challenges do?
1. Remove the Pain Use - COPA HANA Accelerator (Operational Reporting in ECC)
2. Move to BW to get better Performance - BW on HANA (Transformation, Periodic Reporting, History)
3. Convert ECC Platform – HANA Integrated (Operational Reporting)
Most companies use a Hybrid solution to support corporate historic data for legal & financial reporting

Q: Is SAP still investing in BW or is BW Dead? A: Yes! Significant investments were made in latest releases of BW and enhancing solutions on the BW platform e.g. BPC 10.1
Q: Does HANA replace BW? A: No! They are different solutions complementing each other
Q: Is BW better on HANA? A: Absolutely! Significant performance improvement in run times,
extraction times and data storage
HANA and BW

Options
1. Build out COPA to maintain calculation and data there (requires prerequisites and accelerator enhancements)
2. HANA LIVE
3. BW Data warehouse and HANA

1. Build out COPA to maintain calculation and dataPro’s Con’s
IT’s Reporting strategy Allocation of data to correct levels in ECC – This will require
COPA enhancements
Optional - No Reporting performance if HANA COPA
Accelerators implemented
Reports not as flexible – Need to use REPORT PAINTER
Will be a good base to support HANA LIVE, and MS data
warehouse
Performance issue if HANA COPA Accelerators not
implemented
Us BOBJ reporting directly from ECC to provide one touch
and dashboard reporting – Optional
Data in ECC – Reporting requirement met and no record
limitation issues
Required changes needed
1. Optional Implement HANA accelerator to speedup COPA (1-2 month implementation time line)
2. Extend COPA to support ( allocations) – This will include enhancement and development
2. Create reports in ECC COPA - REPORT Painter or BOBJ

2. HANA LIVE
Pro’s Con’s
IT’s Reporting strategy All data in ECC Database / no Long term data storage
available
One touch reporting capability – If all data is in the same
format and levels as required
Achieving of ECC data limited to year to year comparisons
required in reporting
No manual data process to build data set for reporting Microsoft strategy to include achieving data in reporting will
be complex because modeling is in HANA and achieved data
will be in ECC format
Dashboard capability based on each required level of
reporting in BOBJ
Allocation of data to correct levels in ECC – This will require
COPA enhancements
No Reporting performance issue due to HANA Allocation of data to correct levels in ECC will impact ECC
performance if no COPA HANA accelerator implemented
Required changes needed
1. Optional - COPA HANA accelerator will be required to limit any ECC performance impact
2. Extend COPA to support ( allocations) – This will include enhancement and development
3. Create required Modeling structures in HANA LIVE
4. Create required reports and DASHBOARDS in BOBJ
5. Only available 3rd QUARTER 2015 – Finance not on 2015 roadmap

3. BW Data warehouse ON HANAPro’s Con’s
IT’s Reporting strategy
Significant Improvement in Performance
Significant Improvement in Data Storage Space
All data in BW Database / Long term data storage available to do comparison reporting
Achieving of ECC data not impacting Profitability reporting
No data based record limitation/Performance issues to extract and store data
Automated data transformation to build data set for reporting
One touch reporting capability
Dashboard capability based on each required level of reporting in BOBJ
Allocation of data to correct levels can be in done BW
Delta load can be done throughout the month to limit impact on ECC
Requirements
1. COPA database in BW Data warehouse
2. BW data warehouse
3. Optional - COPA HANA accelerator will be required to limit any ECC performance impact
5. Create required reports and DASHBOARDS on selected front end
