• Key Concepts: 
  Data aggregation is the process of combining data from multiple sources into a single, unified view. It is a key component of SAP Predictive Analytics, which is a suite of tools that allow users to analyze large amounts of data and make predictions about future trends. Data aggregation allows users to quickly and easily identify patterns and correlations in their data, which can then be used to make more informed decisions. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Data aggregation can be used in SAP Predictive Analytics by selecting the “Aggregate” option from the menu. This will open a window where users can select the data sources they want to aggregate, as well as the type of aggregation they want to perform (e.g., sum, average, etc.). Once the data sources have been selected, users can then apply filters and other parameters to further refine their results. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using data aggregation in SAP Predictive Analytics, it is important to remember that the more data sources you include in your analysis, the more accurate your results will be. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of your data sources are up-to-date and accurate before performing any analysis. Finally, it is also important to consider the type of aggregation you are performing; for example, if you are looking for correlations between two variables, then an average or sum aggregation may not be appropriate.
