• Key Concepts: 
  Forced merge is a feature of SAP HANA that allows for the merging of two or more tables into a single table. This is done by combining the data from the tables into a single table, while preserving the original structure of the tables. This feature is useful when dealing with large amounts of data, as it can help reduce the amount of time and resources needed to process the data. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use forced merge, you must first create a new table in SAP HANA. Then, you can select the tables you want to merge and specify the columns that should be included in the new table. Once this is done, you can then execute the forced merge command to combine the data from the selected tables into a single table. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using forced merge, it is important to ensure that all of the columns in each table are compatible with each other. This will help ensure that all of the data is properly merged into a single table. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all of the columns in each table have unique names, as this will help prevent any conflicts when merging multiple tables.
