Standard Edition
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
Restricted Key Figures
Calculated Key Figures
Composite Providers
Advanced Data Store Objects (ADSO)
Open ODS Views
InfoSources
DataSources
InfoObjects as InfoProviders
Open Hub Destinations
Aggregation Levels
AfO Workbooks stored in BW
MultiProvider
Data Store Objects
InfoCubes
InfoSets
HybridProvider
HANA Artifacts consumed by Composite Providers and Open ODS Views
In Standard Edition we display the relations of InfoProvider to reusable Key Figures (restricted and calculated Key Figure) only. The definitions of key figures and their relation among each other and BW Queries are part of the Premium Edition.
