Overview

At times it is required to build a quick prototype or a solution by consuming an OData analytics service. We know that the OData Analytics service can be generated, managed and extended using the SEGW transaction. This is possible from GW 2.0 SP05 onwards. However you could also build an OData Analytics service without using SEGW transaction.

However it is recommended to use SEGW; we could create an OData analytics service with minimalistic kick start using the transaction /IWBEP/ANA_SRV_GEN. This transaction is available from GW 2.0 SP04 onwards.

Transaction /IWBEP/ANA_SRV_GEN

Once the BEP model and BEP service are generated you could proceed to Gateway Hub system in activating the generated service using the transaction /IWFND/MAINT_SERVICE. Once the service is activated you could start using the OData analytics service as explained in the following blog series.
