Technical Requirements and Architecture
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.
