• Key Concepts: 
  Event categories are used in SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) to group events into meaningful categories. Events are activities that occur in the system, such as user logins, data refreshes, and report executions. Event categories allow users to quickly identify and analyze patterns in their system usage. 
  
  How to use it: 
  Event categories can be used to track user activity and system performance. To create an event category, go to the Administration tab in SAC and select “Event Categories”. From there, you can create a new category and assign events to it. You can also assign a color to the category for easy identification. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating event categories, it is important to think about how they will be used. Consider creating categories that are specific enough to provide meaningful insights but general enough to be useful for multiple purposes. Additionally, consider assigning colors that are easy to distinguish from one another.
