What is SAP Note 2500202 and why is it important for BW migration?

SAP Note 2500202 is the official BW Extractor retirement roadmap for S/4HANA. It lists all 4,713 BW DataSources with their classification (Whitelisted, Deprecated, Not Whitelisted), category (working, not working, obsolete), and recommended alternatives. It is the authoritative source for planning BW extractor migrations to S/4HANA.

What does Whitelisted, Deprecated, and Not Whitelisted mean for BW DataSources?

Whitelisted means the DataSource continues to work in S/4HANA without restrictions. Deprecated means SAP plans to remove the DataSource in a future release and an alternative should be used. Not Whitelisted means the DataSource is not supported in S/4HANA and may not work correctly due to underlying table changes (e.g. simplification of BSEG, VBUP, VBUK).

How do I find the CDS view replacement for a BW extractor in S/4HANA?

For deprecated or not-whitelisted BW extractors, SAP provides CDS view replacements documented in specific SAP Notes (e.g. 2367672 for MM, 2550084 for FI). On CDSee, DataSources that have a known CDS view replacement show a direct link to the replacement view with full field-level documentation and data lineage.

About BW DataSources in S/4HANA

When migrating from SAP BW on ECC to BW/4HANA or SAP Datasphere on S/4HANA, classic BW extractors (DataSources like 2LIS_02_ITM, 0FI_GL_14, 0CO_OM_CCA_9) undergo significant changes. SAP Note 2500202 is the official retirement roadmap that classifies all 4,713 BW DataSources into three main categories: Whitelisted (continue to work), Deprecated (will be removed), and Not Whitelisted (not supported, may break due to underlying table changes).

For DataSources that are deprecated or not whitelisted, SAP recommends migrating to CDS views with embedded analytics annotations (@Analytics.dataExtraction.enabled: true). These CDS views can be consumed directly by BW/4HANA or SAP Datasphere as data sources without custom extractor logic. Where available, this page links directly to the CDS view replacement on CDSee with full field lists, data lineage, and connected services.

The data on this page is based on SAP Note 2500202 version 3.6 (February 2025) and covers all phases of the S/4HANA extractor retirement roadmap, including Phase 1 (initial release), Phase 2, and subsequent sub-phases.
