BEx and Microsoft’s End of Support for Office 2026

Microsoft is ending extended support for Microsoft Office 2016 and 2019 on October 14, 2025, which also signals the end of support for Excel-based SAP BEx tools like BEx Analyzer, BEx Workbooks, and BEx Broadcaster (Pre-calculation) by SAP. This new deadline comes much sooner than SAP’s previously announced end of mainstream maintenance for BW and BEx in 2027. Below are some resources to help you navigate this change and move BEx workflows.
