Compare BW Entities of Systems

The function "Compare Entities of System" can be found in analysis reports:

This function compares the entities of two different systems. Therefore you have to select the system and the entities, which you like to compare with each other. Then, the function can be started via the button "Start comparison".

There are three different ways, which can be selected in the bottom tabs:

Entities only in the current system
Entities only in the second system
Entities in both systems

By pressing the button "Conditional Formatting", a box appears in which the definition of the rules can be defined.

If the entities of the two systems are compared with each other, certain cells can be highlighted by using conditional formatting. Differences and similarities between the two systems can be determined quickly.
It is possible to choose in which color different or identical values of certain categories (Tech. name, Type, Version, Description, UID, Last changed date, Last changed by, SID) should be highlighted.

Moreover, there are further options in the category "Last change date" to get a better overview of the changes within the systems.

When the settings are confirmed via the button "Ok", they will be executed in the system comparison.

With this function it's possible to identify for example Queries with the same technical name but with a different UID:
