      Hey Yoga,

      Can SDI plug-in to SAP CAR (Customer Activity Repository)?

      Hi Earl Howells

      All data contained in the repository is exposed to consuming applications through SAP HANA views included in SAP HANA content for SAP Customer Activity Repository.  DP Agent needs to connect to HANA to pull and push the data.

      Thanks Yoga.

       

      Once DP agent is installed though, can it read data from SAP CAR and connect to Workday for HR data?
