Data Source The basic object containing key figures and characteristics, which provides a multidimensional, analytical view of business data. Data sources

are associated with a specified access context or can be unrestricted.

Report A compilation of data for analysis. Reports show values derived from key figures and characteristics in data sources, key figure structures, and

key figure grids.

Key-Figure A field according to which values are selected. Key figures are numeric values that have a unit of measure or currency assigned. Examples

include Invoice Net Value and Purchase Order Quantity.

Characteristics Characteristics of business objects like Sales Order ID or Invoice Description.

Navigations Functions for Analytics in the solution enable you navigate from a source to a target. You can navigate from one report to another or view

documents related to a value in a cell, either in rows or columns, by clicking the value and then choosing an entry from the dropdown list.

Interfaces for external analytics

Integrated Analytics with SAP Netweaver Business Warehouse System Replication of data from the solution to an existing SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW) system. The data replication is done using operational data provisioning (ODP).

Retrieving Analytics Data Using Odata The Open Data Protocol (OData) service for the solution returns Analytics data available to the logon user. Reports that are available in the Reports work center view of the work centers assigned to the logon user can be retrieved.
