  Trace is a feature in SAP Information Steward (EIM-IS) that allows users to track the lineage of data from its source to its destination. It provides a visual representation of the data flow and helps users identify any discrepancies or errors in the data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use Trace, users must first create a trace map. This map will show the source and destination of the data, as well as any transformations that occur along the way. Once the map is created, users can then run a trace to view the data flow and identify any discrepancies or errors. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a trace map, it is important to ensure that all sources and destinations are accurately represented. Additionally, it is important to include any transformations that occur along the way, as this will help identify any discrepancies or errors in the data.
