Release Notes
October 2024
A new version of the Fivetran NetWeaver API is now available for download: v1900247.
We fixed issue in the creation of the deletion trigger when the table contains an .INCLUDE structure as the primary key.
For more information, see our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and SAP ERP on HANA setup guide.
A new version of the Fivetran NetWeaver API is now available for download: v1900245.
We fixed an issue where the shadow table was not updated when changes were made to the structure of the primary key in your SAP tables. Additionally, we fixed an issue when searching for tables that exist only in the application layer but not in the database.
For more information, see our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and SAP ERP on HANA setup guide.
The SAP ERP on HANA connector now supports the Hybrid Deployment model. For more information, see our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and SAP ERP on HANA setup guide.
September 2024
A new version of the Fivetran NetWeaver API is now available for download: v1900242.
We fixed an issue with the INT1 data type (1 byte) that was incorrectly stored as 2 bytes. This caused issues on SAP systems running on big-endian architectures. The fix ensures proper handling of this data type, regardless of the system's endianness.
Additionally, for MDTC, we have modified unpacked column names so they are no longer prefixed by /FIVETRAN/.
For more information, see our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and SAP ERP on HANA setup guide.
July 2024
We have made the following improvements to our SAP ERP on HANA connector.
SNC support
We added support for Secure Network Communications (SNC), the SAP's proprietary encryption/decryption tool. SAP supports both a certificate-based authentication and user/password authentication combined with SNC.
This update introduces changes in the connector setup form, including a dropdown to select one of the available SNC modes (No SNC, SNC with certificate, or SNC with certificate and user/password).
Additionally, we have introduced a Direct connection method, which is only available for the SNC with certificate or SNC with certificate and user/password modes. The combination of No SNC mode with the Direct connection is not allowed due to security concerns.
It is still possible to use an SSH tunnel with any of the SNC modes (including No SNC).
Data type mapping update
We've updated the mapping of the FLTP SAP data type from FLOAT to DOUBLE.

- Replication of CDS views and row-store transparent tables
For more information, see our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and setup guide.
We have changed the way we convert DATS values for primary key columns. When you set the Enable SAP date to LocalDate conversion toggle to ON, we now keep the original column as a STRING type and create a new column called <original_column_name>_DATE, with its values converted from DATS to LocalDate type. Previously, we only converted the original column to LocalDate when you enabled this toggle. Learn more in our SAP ERP on HANA documentation and setup guide.
We have added new Quickstart packages for the following connectors:
