Hi Subbu Pithani,

For NW7.3 only works on oracle 11g. FYI, is good to upgrade your 10g database to 11g as SAP will phrase out support for 10g eventually.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks a lot for your response.Can you also pls clarify :

Our ERP (backend) is running on ECC 6.0 EHP4 with SAP netweaver 7.0

EHP1 platform.

Can BI 7.3 have ECC 6.0 EHP4 + netweaver 7.0 EHP1 system as backend.

Can you please point to the relavent SAP note.

Subbu

Hi Subbu,

If the source is a just an ECC system ie. not XI or Portal or SLD then

the SPSs are independent and there should be no compatability

issues whatsoever with just upgrading the BI system.

Interconnectivity is provided via PI_BASIS in abap which can

exist with lower SP levels on the ECC side.

If you also want to check dependcy between you release upgrades then

please refer the below link.

Hi Subbu,

Have a look on Note 1388258 - Version Interoperability within the SAP Business Suite

This rule applies to SAP NetWeaver Portal, SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse and SAP NetWeaver PI with no known restrictions for the SAP Business Suite 7 and succeeding Enhancement Packages in concunction with SAP NetWeaver 7.0 and its Enhancement Packages.

Upgrading your central hub to SAP NetWeaver PI 7.10, PI 7.11, PI 7.30 or to SAP NetWeaver Portal 7.30 or to SAP NetWeaver BW 7.30 does not require implementing an Enhancement Package for a connected SAP Business Suite system, if this system is at least based on Business Suite 7.

Note 1468349 - SAP Business Suite 7 for SAP NetWeaver 7.3 hub systems

Cheers,

Thanks,
