• Key Concepts: 
  Data flow is a feature of SAP's Data Warehouse Cloud - Modeling (Data Builder) component. It is a graphical representation of the data transformation process, which allows users to create and manage data flows between different sources and targets. Data flows are used to define the data transformation logic, such as mapping, filtering, and aggregation.
  
  How to use it: 
  Data flows can be created in the Data Builder component of the Data Warehouse Cloud. To create a data flow, users must first define the source and target of the data flow. Then, they can add transformation steps to the data flow, such as mapping, filtering, and aggregation. Finally, users can execute the data flow to transform the data from the source to the target.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a data flow, it is important to consider how the data will be transformed. For example, if you are mapping two different sources of data together, you should make sure that the fields in each source are compatible with each other. Additionally, it is important to consider how the data will be filtered or aggregated before it is loaded into the target.
