• Key Concepts: 
  A domain in SAP BusinessObjects Data Federator is a collection of related data sources that are used to create a single virtual data source. It is a logical representation of the data sources and their relationships. A domain can contain multiple tables, views, and other objects from different data sources. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To create a domain, you must first define the data sources that will be included in the domain. This can be done by connecting to the data sources and importing the objects into the domain. Once the objects have been imported, you can then define relationships between them. This will allow you to create a single virtual data source that can be used for reporting and analysis. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a domain, it is important to ensure that all of the objects included in the domain are compatible with each other. This means that they should have similar data types and structures. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the objects are up-to-date so that they can be used for reporting and analysis.
