Support of BLOB datatype in Data Services

$

Hello All,

 

We use SAP HANA as the staging database and also our SAP CRM schema sits on the same HANA database. Till date I have been reading SAP CRM specific tables by connecting to the SAP datastore and reading the tables through RFC. But now I would like to read the same table directly from SAP CRM schema of HANA.

 

In this standard CRM table, we have a field which holds the value of a GUID. It's datatype is RAW in SAP. However when I use this table as source in Data Services, GUID field datatype is shown as BLOB and I would like to store this data as varchar into a template table.

 

Job fails because I cannot convert BLOB to VARCHAR. Infact I cannot use BLOB field as a parameter in any function of Data Services.

 

Please let me know if there is any 100% working solution to store BLOB datatypes as varchar?

 

Thanks,

San
