Connecting to BW with Unicode

We are currently changing our BW environment to use unicode. I seem to remember when we first installed Business Objects Integration kit there were two sets of transports in the SAP Integration kit for BW. One for unicode and another set of non-unicode. Is this still true for XI 3.1 sp2.4? Or can we just switch BW to unicode without having to do anything special on the bobj XI 3.1 side?

This is still the case. You need a different transport file. Either the transport file shipped with the BODS install or sometimes there is a newer transport file in a SAP Note because of some bug fixes. Not that there are many, but for BODS 4.0 there was at least one…

Ok, thank you for the response. I’ll check for the latest BW transports.
