Object Level

Data Lineage at Object level for BW Entities.
We export two files: one file with all the relations of BW Entities (“Relations”) and one file with more details (e.g. Technical Name and descriptions) (“Details”) of the entities.

In the “Relations” file only entities are included that have a connection in a data flow. E.g. an Advanced DSO without an incoming or outgoing transformation or an Composite or Open ODS View on top is not listed in the data.

The supported entities for the standard edition are the following:

• BW Queries
