  • Key Concepts: 
    Data Warehousing Workbench (BW-WHM) is a component of SAP's Warehouse Management (WM) module. It is used to create and manage data warehouses, which are collections of data from multiple sources that are organized and structured for analysis. BW-WHM provides tools for creating and managing data warehouses, including the ability to define data sources, create data models, and generate reports.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use BW-WHM, first define the data sources that will be used in the warehouse. This includes defining the source system, the type of data to be included, and any transformations that need to be applied. Once the sources have been defined, create a data model that defines how the data will be organized in the warehouse. Finally, generate reports from the warehouse using BW-WHM's reporting tools.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When creating a data model for a warehouse, it is important to consider how the data will be used. This will help ensure that the model is optimized for the intended purpose. Additionally, it is important to consider how often the warehouse will need to be updated with new data. This will help ensure that the warehouse is kept up-to-date with the latest information.
