Architecture
-
Performer Suite is a .NET-based application for Microsoft Windows.
-
It requires no administrative rights and makes no entries in the Windows Registry.
-
Apart from a few custom function modules—which Performer Suite can create automatically—no adaptations or installations are needed in your SAP system.
-
For storing synchronized objects, data, and comments, you can use an SQLite, SQL Server, or Oracle database.
-
When running an analysis or generating documentation, Performer Suite communicates with your SAP systems via remote-enabled function modules (BW, ERP) or the RESTful interface (BO, HANA, SAC, DSP).
-
Results are provided as analysis or documentation in various output formats: Word, Excel, PowerPoint, PDF, and HTML.
