Question 1

Does TextQL understand SAP HANA's table naming conventions and structures?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TextQL is trained to recognize SAP naming conventions and common table structures across modules like MM, SD, FI, and PP. Ana resolves cryptic SAP table and field names into business context, so you can ask questions in business language rather than SAP technical terms.

Question 2

Can TextQL query SAP HANA calculation views and CDS views?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TextQL discovers and queries calculation views, CDS views, and standard column views alongside regular tables. When a view provides pre-aggregated or business-ready data relevant to your question, Ana prefers it over joining raw tables — giving you faster, more accurate answers.

Question 3

Does TextQL work with SAP HANA Cloud?

Accepted Answer

Yes. TextQL supports both SAP HANA Cloud and on-premise HANA deployments. For HANA Cloud, provide your instance endpoint and database user credentials. All features — schema discovery, view enumeration, and query generation — work identically regardless of deployment model.

Question 4

Can I combine SAP data with non-SAP sources?

Accepted Answer

Yes. This is one of TextQL's most valuable capabilities for SAP customers. Ask a question that joins SAP HANA financial data with Salesforce CRM data in Snowflake, or correlate supply chain metrics with external market data. TextQL orchestrates the cross-source query seamlessly.

Question 5

Does TextQL require SAP BASIS or ABAP expertise to set up?

Accepted Answer

No. TextQL connects directly to SAP HANA's SQL interface — no ABAP development, no BASIS configuration, and no transport requests required. Setup takes minutes: provide the HANA connection details and a read-only database user. Your SAP team doesn't need to be involved beyond granting the initial access.
