Hello All,

We have to follow some stpes to create ODBC data source and make the successful ODBC connection with sap hana.

Prerequisites:

1) Before creating an odbc connection, it is required to login in sap hana studio with the particular username and password which is going to make the conenction with odbc.

2) HANA CLIENT should be installed in the system.

STEPS for ODBC Conenction

        Thanks for the informative blog. Is it possible to have a real-time connection to HANA, though, or are you just sucking the data out and having it be static? Would be nice if Qlikview would let you really use the power of hana.
