SAP HANA Views

The document outlines the three types of SAP HANA modeling views: Attribute, Analytical, and Calculated views. Attribute views utilize non-measurable data for business logic, Analytical views create star schemas with fact and dimension tables, and Calculated views combine elements from both previous types for advanced modeling. Each view serves distinct purposes in data analysis and transformation within SAP HANA.

SAP HANA Modeling

Types of View in SAP HANA Modeling

 There are three type of SAP HANA modeling views. Attribute view,
Analytical and Calculated view.

 Attribute View :
 Attribute view uses attributes, or the non-measurable, non-quantifiable data to
design views and models according to the business logic. Thus, the data used in
attribute view is referred to as ‘Master data’ as it is used as reference
information in other views (analytic and calculation).
 The tables in attribute view do not contain any facts or measure. Entries like
quantity sold, sales amount, profit incurred, transaction amount, etc. includes.
We will analyze all these measures by different characteristics such as year,
quarter, month, vendors, sales departments, product groups etc.
 These characteristics are thus called dimensions which we create in the
attribute view.

 There are three type of SAP HANA modeling views. Attribute view,
Analytical and Calculated view.

 Analytical View:
 We can create star schemas, having a fact table or central transaction and
multiple dimension tables linked to it via primary keys in the analytic view.
The measures in only the central transaction table which we can group or
join with multiple dimension tables as per the logic’s requirement.
Types of View in SAP HANA Modeling

 There are three type of SAP HANA modeling views. Attribute view,
Analytical and Calculated view.

 Calculated View:
 Calculation view is a complex model which uses both attribute and analytic
view elements in it to create complete business logic. Thus, it is the next
level of modeling for more advanced transformations and logic if we are
executing complex operations like combining two data sets.
 As we know, what came as a limitation in analytic view is that measure
that we can only use from the transaction table. So, if we have transaction
data from two tables, such as Sales and Finance, and we want to combine
both in one data set, then we can only perform it in the calculation view.
