If you get asked that question on where your data is coming from, what transformation it gets, and who's accessing it, then this session is made just for you. In this session, get a deep understanding of your data lifecycle from BODS all the way to your final report, and understand how to carry out an audit and impact analysis in SAP BusinessObjects to document unused content.

BI on BI & BI on ETL
BI on ETL
(SAP Data Services metadata)
Leverage Data Services ETL
metadata and understand what’s
going on in your ETL.
Metadata
statement about potentially
informative object.
cf. Jeffrey Pomerantz metadata
BI on BI
(CMS, Auditor and FileStore
metadata)
Combine and leverage BOBJ
Metadata to understand what is
going on in your BI environment
allowing to make data driven
decisions.

Agenda
- Extract metadata
- Document & catalog metadata
- Impact analysis & lineage
- Usage & non usage
- Historical information & compare metadata

4. www.wiiisdom.com/360suite/
Aggregate And Centralize The Metadata
Stored In SAP BOBJ & SAP Data Services
360Eyes extracts metadata from
the BOBJ CMS, Auditor and
FileStore.
360Eyes Data Services extracts
metadata from local repositories
(Scheduled jobs, Data Store
Project, Workflow, Data Flows,
Sources, targets, Query
mapping, Query Transform, etc.)
We store the metadata in a data
mart and you perform any
analysis you want using Webi
reports.

SAP Data Services
Minimum Supported SAP Data Services
Version BI 4.2
Robust ETL Solution:
- Multiple ETL real-time operations.
- Increases flow productivity through
graphic design.
- Facilitates reuse of objects.
- Facilitates data manipulation, same
method for different data sources.

6. www.wiiisdom.com/360suite/
Monitoring and Execution History
Monitoring Executions :
- Monitoring of all jobs, ensuring
validity of the data.
- Volume indicators
- Execution time
➔ Objective : To have a global view of data flows and the ability to focus on
certain jobs that have been identified as potentially having issues.
Execution History :
- Monitoring the evolution of job
performance to detect performance
issues or changes in behavior.

Impact Analysis – Lineage
➔ Objective : List all reports impacted.
• When planning
modifications, identify
the flows to update.
• How will you know which
Universes and reports
will be impacted.
• Currently, the only
solution is to open all the
Universes and search for
the Destination table.

Design Assistance - Execution Plan
Identification of the most consuming Data Flows and Work Flows
(in time and/or volume)
➔ Objective : To be able to optimize processing by
highlighting the costly elements of a job.

360Eyes Data Services - BI on ETL
Pre 360Suite:
● No documentation on SAP Data Services data lineage.
● Very limited impact analysis and lineage on Data
Services.
● No Historical mapping.
● Insights limited on How ETL job is performing.
Post 360Suite:
➔ Find out what is going on with ETL Job without going in DS and
doing a 1 by 1 analysis. Data Cleansing.
➔ Extract Dataflow field usage and mappings (transformation)
from Source to Destination fields via Webi.
➔ Extract Audit Metadata allowing to display Execution time,
duration and rows and compare it over time.
➔ Extract Workflow and Dataflow Usage and relationships.
➔ Extract Job Usage and Orphan Jobs.
➔ Get end-to-end data lineage by combining Report and Universe
snapshots from 360Eyes (BOBJ & DS).
➔ BI on ETL . Webi reporting / Documentation can be done on
Projects, Jobs & Workflows & Data Flows. It can include Usage.
➔ Compare and document ETL Historical Metadata changes via
Snapshots
