To connect to SAP ByDesign, you can use either a DSN or an ODBC connection string. Both of these methods use the odbcConnect function.

Connect to a DSN

To connect using a DSN:

cnx <- odbcConnect("CData SAPByDesign Sys")

Provide a Driver Connection String

To connect using an ODBC connection string:

cnx <- odbcDriverConnect(connection = "DRIVER={CData ODBC Driver for SAP ByDesign};URL=https://my999999.sapbydesign.com;User=username;Password=password;ServiceType=AnalyticsService;ServiceName=servicename;")
