DB Reverse on SAP or other tools

[Guillaume]

Hi,

Has anyone managed to run a reverse on any SAP module database? Since the schemas probably never change, it would make sense to have a public repository with the reverse content.

Thanks

SAP can use a number of different technologies like Oracle DB, SQL Server S/4Hana etc to store its data. Sparx EA can reverse engineer Oracle or SQL server but as far as I remember I don't think S/4 Hana is one.
However if SAP stored data like other apps it  might be worth doing. Unfortunately SAP doesn't store data like other apps and you need the meta info to figure out what the data is. 
So if it was SQL Server or Oracle even though you might be able to reverse engineer the tables and columns they wouldn't make much sense to mere mortals without the meta info.

... and any reverse engineering would probably be considered a licence violation by SAP, certainly if shared publicly.
