Regarding Info Cubes : The F Table is optimized for loading data and the E table is optimized for data Requests
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The given statement is true. In SAP BW, an InfoCube is a data storage structure that holds data for reporting purposes. The F Table, also known as the Fact Table, is optimized for loading data into the InfoCube. It stores the actual data values along with key figures and dimensions. On the other hand, the E Table, also known as the Extended Table, is optimized for data requests. It contains aggregated data that is pre-calculated and summarized for faster retrieval during reporting. Therefore, the F Table is designed for efficient data loading, while the E Table is designed for efficient data retrieval.Rate this question:

Characteristics with an N:M relationship can be combined in the same dimension if the Maximum number of records are clearly defined and the Cartesian product of the Characteristic results only in a small dimension table
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
Characteristics with an N:M relationship can be combined in the same dimension if the maximum number of records are clearly defined and the Cartesian product of the characteristic results only in a small dimension table. This means that if the number of records is limited and the resulting dimension table is not too large, it is possible to combine the characteristics. This allows for more efficient and organized data representation, making it easier to analyze and interpret the information.Rate this question:

Since MultiProviders do not save any data, performance aspects do not affect the way dimensions of the MultiProvider are modeled.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. TrueExplanation
The statement is true because MultiProviders in SAP BW do not store any data themselves. They are virtual objects that combine data from different InfoProviders. As a result, the modeling of dimensions in a MultiProvider does not have any impact on performance since the data is not stored within the MultiProvider itself. The performance aspects are instead determined by the underlying InfoProviders that contain the actual data.Rate this question:

Wich of the following are joins supported by InfoSets
-
Temporal Join
-
Union
-
Inner join
-
Outer join
-
Key join
Correct Answer(s)
A. Temporal Join
A. Inner join
A. Outer joinExplanation
InfoSets are used in SAP systems to define data sources for reporting purposes. They provide a way to combine data from different tables or views. Temporal Join, Inner Join, and Outer Join are all types of joins supported by InfoSets.
A Temporal Join is used to join tables based on a time period, allowing for analysis of historical data.
An Inner Join combines records from two tables based on a matching condition, resulting in only the matching records being included in the result set.
An Outer Join includes all records from one table and the matching records from another table, even if there is no match.
Key Join is not supported by InfoSets and therefore not included in the correct answer.Rate this question:

Master data Charateristics
-
Multiprovidors
-
Infosource
-
Infocubes
Correct Answer(s)
A. Data Store Object
A. Master data Charateristics
A. InfocubesExplanation
Infosets can be based on Data Store Objects, Master Data Characteristics, and Infocubes. Infosets are virtual InfoProviders that allow users to combine data from different sources and create a unified view for reporting and analysis. Data Store Objects store detailed data at a granular level, Master Data Characteristics provide information about key attributes, and Infocubes store aggregated data for reporting purposes. By including these three InfoProviders, users can create comprehensive and meaningful Infosets that meet their reporting requirements.Rate this question:

The MultiProvider does not contain any data itself. Its data comes exclusively from the InfoProviders on which it is based, which are grouped together in a join operation.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The MultiProvider does not contain any data itself, but rather acts as a virtual InfoProvider that combines data from multiple InfoProviders. It does not perform a join operation to retrieve data from the underlying InfoProviders. Instead, it uses a union operation to aggregate data from the different InfoProviders. Therefore, the statement that the data in a MultiProvider comes exclusively from the InfoProviders on which it is based is false.Rate this question:

The dimension tables contains the data for each Characteristic with a DIM ID as the primary key of the Table
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
The explanation for the given correct answer, which is False, is that dimension tables do not necessarily need to have a DIM ID as the primary key. While it is common for dimension tables to have a primary key, it can be any other suitable attribute or combination of attributes that uniquely identifies each row in the table. The primary key could be a natural key, such as a customer ID or a product code, or it could be a surrogate key generated specifically for the dimension table. Therefore, the statement that all dimension tables have a DIM ID as the primary key is incorrect.Rate this question:

For InfoSets it is possible to define an InfoCube as a right operand of a left outer join.
-
True
-
False
Correct Answer
A. FalseExplanation
It is not possible to define an InfoCube as a right operand of a left outer join. In SAP BW, an InfoCube is a multi-dimensional data structure that stores consolidated and aggregated data for reporting and analysis. It cannot be used as a right operand in a join operation as it does not have the necessary characteristics and structure for joining with other tables or cubes.Rate this question:
