• Key Concepts: 
  The Source Data Layer (SDL) is a component of the SAP Financial Services Business Application (FS-BA) that provides a single source of data for all financial services applications. It is designed to provide a consistent and reliable source of data for all financial services applications, including banking, insurance, and asset management. The SDL is a layer of abstraction between the application and the underlying data sources, allowing for easier integration and maintenance of data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The SDL can be used to store and manage data from multiple sources, such as databases, flat files, and web services. It provides a unified view of the data, allowing for easier access and manipulation. The SDL also provides an interface for applications to access the data, allowing for easier integration with other systems. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the SDL, it is important to ensure that the data is properly structured and formatted. This will ensure that the data can be easily accessed and manipulated by applications. Additionally, it is important to ensure that the data is secure and protected from unauthorized access.
