BI (Business Intelligence)

SAP BI

Computer: Computer is an electronic device, which takes input, processed it and gives the accurate result as output. Hardware: which we can see and touch. Software: it is a set of programs Applications are of 2 types. 1) OLTP (Online Transaction Processing) 2) OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) There are some differences are there between OLTP and OLAP. OLTP 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) 6) 7) 8) Two dimensional model Day-to-Day Transactions Application oriented Users -> Thousands DB size -> 100MB 1GB Redundancy No security Not Integrated OLAP 1) Multi dimensional model 2) Historical data tractions also 3) Subject oriented 4) Users - > Hundreds 5) DB size -> 100GB-1TB 6) No Redundancy 7) Security 8) Integrated.

Netweavers: It provides open integrity for SAP and Non SAP. Integration is of some types 1) People integration 2) Information integration -> BI, MDM, KM. 3) Process integration -> XI 4) Platform integration 5) Collaboration integration -> EP The architecture of Netweavier is ESA. Netweaviers also a set of capabilities to provide information/integration.

Layout/steps in SAP BW (DW):

SAP BI

1) DB => for designing we can use 2 dimensional model. Data can be stored permanently in database. 2) Table contains rows and columns. 3) Each column is a field in OLTP. 4) Every table must have a Primary key. 5) All non-key columns describe key columns called Attributes.

ER-Model (Entity Relationship model): Multiple tables likes with a primary and foreign key relationships these are called as ER Model. In a table one field is Primary key if we use the same field in other table then it act as a foreign key in that table. If two or more columns of a table together acts as Composite primary key.

JH SOFTECH

SAP BI

In figure (1) and (2), CID is common. Here in figure (2) it acts as foreign key. Designing DB: Two ways of designing a DB. 1) Objected Oriented 2) Normalization 1) Object Oriented: Requirements (i.e. Defining system) Identifying the Objects (i.e. Objects) Ex: Customer, Material, Product etc - Entity diagram is as follows

Attributes or Properties are nothing but properties of a table. Front-end people use methods or functions only.

2) Normalization:

JH SOFTECH

SAP BI

Converts demoralized tables into normalized tables. Normalization is nothing but dividing the table into small tables and combine them with the help of primary and foreign key relationship. Demoralization contains all table data into one table. Reduces redundancy of data. Reduce complexity Saves memory.

DB concepts in OLTP: MDM (Multi Dimensional Model) is used for designing. There are 4 types: 1) Star Schema (traditional schema) 2) Extended Star Schema (BW schema) 3) Snow Flake scheme 4) Hybrid schema 1) Star Schema (traditional schema):

1) Characters indicate on what base you are trying to analyses. 2) Key-figures indicate what you are trying to analyses. 3) Master data is qualifying transaction data. Master data is of 3 types.

JH SOFTECH
a) Attributes b) Hierarchy c) Text 4) Master data is also called as Dimensional table. 5) Star schema is completely demoralized form.

SAP BI

Limitations: 1) Since master data is with in the fact cube so it is not reusable component. 2) Limited analysis because the maximum number of master data tables is 16. 3) Performance is low because the execution of alphanumeric data is slower than numeric data. If we want to extract the data from the table for example

JH SOFTECH

SAP BI

2) Extended star schema:

Extended star schema is nothing but combination of both star schema and SID (sorigated id). Changes from star schema to extended star schema are as follows. - Cube is called as infocube. - All master data tables are placed out side the cube so they are reusable components. - Here master data tables and Dimensional tables are different.

JH SOFTECH

SAP BI

When we are loading the data into master data table then SID table is generated. Fact table contains Dimensional ids and key figures. - Maximum of 1 fact table per infocube. - Any table contains maximum of 255 fields. - Maximum of 16 Dimensional tables that an infocube contains. 1 unit, 1 time, 1- packet, 13 Dim id - Minimum of 4 Dimensional tables that an infocube contains. 1 unit, 1 time, 1- packet, 1 Dim id. - Maximum of 248 char per Dimensional table contains - Maximum of 233 key figures per infocube. Limitations: (1) (2) Limiting the no. Of joins in reporting. Limiting no. Of fields in Dimensional table.

Metadata Repository 1. Modeling: It mainly Contains Creating infoarea, infoobjects, infocube, infosource, infopackage, ODS, Multiprovider, datasource etc. Loading of all objects A field in OLTP is called as infoobject in BW system. In loading E - Extraction T - Transferring L - Loading (This ETL Processing, before it is called as ETTL Extraction, Transferring, Transporting and Loading. But now this ETL Processing is called as DTP Data Transferring Process).

2. Monitoring: To see weather the load is failed or not.

3. Reporting Agent: It is a tool with which we can schedule and execute reporting functions in the background. 4. Transport Connection: By using Transport connection we can move the objects from Development to Quality and then to Production.

5. Documentation:

SAP BI

It enables you to insert, search and create links for one or more documentations in various formats, versions and languages for SAP BW Objects.

6. Business Content: It contains all the objects are delivered by SAPBW. It provides preConfigured information models based on metadata. It is a predefined analytical application model i.e. part of SAP BW software. Versions Until unless you activate the object, we cant use the object. N NEW M Modified A Activate D Delivered. Installing the business content means that the object converted from delivered version to active version and start using them. We cant modify the business content objects directly. For that first copy that object and modify it.

7. Translation: Converting from one language to another language. There are 64 languages in SAP. If you are translating them, only description will be changed not technical name.

8. Meta data Reporting: Data about data is called as Meta date. Meta data management maintains it. It is purely in HTML format.

Enter t-code: SE11 1. Data base table: /BIC/OHOHD-DBTB Select display Contents Execute Press F3, F3, F3 Multi providers (T-code: RSDMPROM) in BI 7 0 It is a type info provider that combines data from a no of info providers and makes it Available for reporting purposes. The multi provider itself does not contain any data. Its data comes entirely from the info providers on which it is based These info providers are connected to one another by a union operation. It allows you to run reports based on several info providers at a time. Structure of the multi provider: A multi provider can consists of different combination of the following info providers. They are info cube, DSO, Info Objects, Info sets, virtual providers (SAP-Remote General remote cube, aggregation levels.

cubes)

JH SOFTECH

Note: A multi provider is a virtual info provider. A union operation is used to combine the data from these objects into a multi provider Here the system constructs the union, set of the data sets involved In other words all the values of these data sets are combined And comparison info sets are created using joins. There joins only combines the values that appear in the both tables. In contrast to a union joins forms the intersection of the tables. In a multi provider every characteristic in each of the info provider involved must corresponds to exactly one characteristic (or) navigational attributes.

SAP BI

Note: A Multi provider only exists as a logical definition. The data continues to be stored in the info providers on which the multi provider is based. A query based on a multi provided is divided internally into sub queries. There is a sub query for each info provider included in the multi provider These sub queries are usually processed in parallel. There are two types of multi providers: 1. Homogeneous multi provider 2. Heterogeneous multi provider 1. Homogeneous multi providers: These consists of technically identical info providers, such info cube

with Exactly the same characteristics and key figures where one info cube contains The data for the year 2003. Multi providers can be used to partition on the modeling level of the info providers. 2. Heterogeneous multi providers: These are made up of info providers that only have a certain no. of Characteristics and key figures in common heterogeneous multi providers can be used To simplify the modeling of scenarios by dividing them into sub-scenarios. Each sub-scenario is represented by its own info provider. Eg: A sales scenario made up of the sub process orders delivers, payments. Each of these sub process has its own info objects such as delivery location and invorce Number. It makes sense here to model each sub process in its own info provider and then combine these info providers into a multi provider. Note:

Technically there are no restrictions with regard to the no. of info providers that Can be included in a multi provider. However SAP recommends that you include not more than 10 info providers in a single Multi providers because any more than this number and splitting the multi provider Queries and reconstructry the results from the individual info providers takes a Substantial amount of time and is generally counterproductive ( not productive).
