  Key Concepts: 
  A composite row is a feature of the SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator (EIM-DI-DF) that allows users to combine multiple rows of data into a single row. This is useful for combining related data from different sources into one row, making it easier to analyze and report on. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the composite row feature, users must first define the columns they want to combine. Then, they can select the rows they want to combine and specify how they should be combined. Finally, the composite row can be created by selecting the “Create Composite Row” option in the Data Federator menu. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a composite row, it is important to ensure that all of the columns being combined have compatible data types. If not, the composite row may not be created correctly. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the columns being combined have unique names, as this will make it easier to identify them in reports and analyses.
