What is currency conversion ??
To do currency conversion we need to have tcurr, tcurc, tcurx,tcurf,tcurt,tcurv tables and we
can't create currency conversion on top of attribute view as it is made to define attribute
properties not for measures.
What are the different engines available in HANA?
In HANA there are mainly 3 types of engines.

Join Engine: used for attribute views

OLAP engine: used for analytic views

Calculation Engine: used for calculation views

Text Join in SAP HANA:


Text Join is used to fetch the description based on user's session language. Once we implement
the text join in SAP HANA, it automatically find out user's language and give description in that
language.

Can we call an analytic view or calculation view inside another calculation view?

Yes. We can call all the views (attribute, analytic and calculation view) inside a calculation view.
Note: Calculation views are composite views and can be used to combine other views. It can
consume other Analytical, Attribute, other Calculation Views & tables. It can perform complex
calculations not possible with other views.
Qs. What are the different types of calculation view? Which one would you prefer?
There are 2 types of calculation view possible.
1.

Graphical calculation view


Scripted calculation view
Graphical calculation views are created using the graphical editor. Scripted calculation views are
created using SQL Editor.
Graphical based calculation views offer better performance compared to SQL based calculation
views.But in scenarios where graphical calculation views cannot implement business logic, we
need to use scripted calculation view. Complex calculations which are not possible thru
graphical approach, can be creat
