To use SAP HANA in Excel, you must have either the 32-bit or 64-bit SAP HANA ODBC driver (depending on whether you're using the 32-bit or 64-bit version of Excel) installed on the local client computer. For instructions about installing the SAP HANA ODBC driver, see Installing SAP HANA ODBC Driver on Windows 64 Bits. Since the SAP Software Download Center changes its structure frequently, more specific guidance for navigating that site isn't available. In the Software portal, search for the SAP HANA CLIENT for Windows computers. Or you can get it from the SAP Software Download Center. You can download the SAP HANA Client tools from SAP Development Tools, which contains the necessary ODBC driver. To use SAP HANA in Power BI Desktop or Excel, you must have the SAP HANA ODBC driver installed on the local client computer for the SAP HANA data connection to work properly. If you're unsure, contact the SAP administrator in your organization. You'll need an SAP account to sign in to the website and download the drivers. Some capabilities may be present in one product but not others due to deployment schedules and host-specific capabilities.
