Summary :
This SAP Note provides guidelines for connecting an external MaxDB database to a SAP BW system (version 3.0B or higher) using the DB connect method. It details necessary prerequisites such as supported BW and Basis releases, required MaxDB client, and the associate SAP DBI interface libraries. Potential problem areas and limitations are outlined, including data type incompatibilities where solutions like data view transformations are suggested, and issues with name casing and code page differences where no current solutions exist.
