  Key Concepts: 
  Multiline is a feature of SAP Data Services that allows users to combine multiple lines of data into a single line. This is useful for combining multiple records into one, such as combining multiple sales orders into one line item. It also allows users to group data by certain criteria, such as grouping sales orders by customer. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the multiline feature in SAP Data Services, users must first create a data flow that contains the data they want to combine. Then, they must select the multiline option from the Transformations tab. This will open a window where users can specify the criteria for combining the data, such as grouping by customer or product. Once the criteria is specified, users can click “OK” to apply the transformation and combine the data into a single line. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using multiline in SAP Data Services, it is important to make sure that all of the data being combined is compatible. For example, if you are combining sales orders from different customers, make sure that all of the orders have the same fields and data types. This will ensure that the transformation runs smoothly and produces accurate results.
