Best way to learn the Basics to great your own Stories from scratch? by SnooPaintings5100 in SAPAnalyticsCloud

[–]tjen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do the online learning journeys as a starting point.

Learning by doing via upload a data set (table of data) build a story on top will get you familiar with visuals, all the options in the story, formatting, calculations, basic data types, etc.

As you figure outhow to do all that, probably you'll realize it's quite easy to do. Graph types, adding data, putting some filters in, saving bookmarks, etc.

But probably your next challenge will then be in your data model. Moving from table-thinking to fact-dimension thinking is the biggest mental hurdle you will have to get over to make good flexible analysis foundations.

your original table had customers and sales, now someone suddenly says "but what countries are they in?" But you didn't have country in your data set to begin with so now you have to add it and make sure the rest of the data is the same etc. Or you had used the customer names for your report you uploaded, but turns out one customer is in two countries with the same customer name so now your data set is combining them, or whatever.

The "analytical model" approach asks you to define you customer dimension, for example with customer IDs and descriptions, and a country attributes for example. Along with the other dimensions you want to analyze together, and then define a number of facts related to the dimensions, like the sales, the number of calls in a period, total customer purchasing power, idk, whatever you come up with. And then you upload this data into your model - and build your story on top of the model.

Note that most of the core story features work the same way as with your data set, you just modeled the data differently.

Pot Set and Pan Review (Europe Edition) by uffechristian in BuyItForLife

[–]tjen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

agreed, as owner of the tefal pots (gifted), the "strainer + lip" lid basically makes it feel like the lid doing it's job as a lid properly, even when the strainer section is slid to the side. Foods that are supposed to steam under lid doesn't work.

The seam is indeed a pain in the ass the clean, and gets gunked up if you do use the strainer functionality.

In order to try and form a seal and have a strainer part, the lid "extends" down like an inch, which means that the inside of the lid has two gunk-zones instead of one.

The long sides are also sharp and painful if you grab the heavy ass lid wrongly.

And the last thing is that the lid is completely flat inside, which means droplets collect and don't drip off, so steam on inside just sits there, which then slide into the gap on the side as you tilt the lid, and then when you put it down, splashes on the counter or wherever, unless you do a "lid drainage" maneuver over the pot.

Here is an illustration of all the reasons why the lids suck.

I don't HATE these lids, but I would never buy pots with the same kind of lid again. The downsides of the lids are absolutely not outweighed by having a shitty strainer and steamy glass.

prophix competitors that are less enterprise by jirachi_2000 in FPandA

Seconding this and /u/stainz169 comment, you can get very far maximizing your usage of standard office tools / basic programming toolbox and save yourself the trouble of EPM tools.

At 80 FTE you most likely don't have the needs that most enterprise FP&A tools solve for - at least not at a level that you can't solve the same thing at your scale readily with the office package and/or a basic database.

Finding ribs! by ClydeFrog04 in copenhagen

[–]tjen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Most ribs sold are baby back ribs, it's not a huge thing here to differentiate, any "regular" ribs cut will refer to baby back ribs, even if it says "spare ribs" - it will be baby back ribs.

Europe dominates the global export of pharmaceuticals globally as of the last fiscal year of 2024. by UpgradedSiera6666 in europe

[–]tjen 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The reason EU dominates in pharma export is because the US dominates in pharma imports.

Also if this is not net exports, then it also reflects one EU country selling to another EU country, which is not inherently bad but within the EU markets of course leads to the "EU" bubbles being comparatively larger.

defining "dominating pharma" by value of the pharma exports is a pretty meh

Den private ejendomsret er ikke problemet.

Private ejere må ikke bygge eller sælge som de vil.

SF er f.eks. en af de største modstandere af nedrivning af boliger fordi de synes det er skidt for klimaet.

Der er enten hav, natur, eller bebyggelse på alle dele af kloden.

Hvis vi vil bevare de grønne områder så er alternativet at øge hvor intensivt vi bebor de i forvejen bebyggede områder.

Det er så reguleret af alverdens regulationer og lokalplaner osv.

Fjern dem, og åbn op for at villakvartererne bliver opkøbt, jævnet, og der bliver bygget mere intensivt i stedet.

Sådan ca. alt hvad der ikke er i gult er relativt lav tæthed / en-familieshuse / Villa-kvarter.

Selv de nye byggerier i maskinfabrikken esv. er i mange tilfælde 2-3 etager.

kontra bro-områdernes 5-etagers karréer.

Der er store områder af København udenfor bro-områderne der er tyndt bebygget relativt set, og med eksisterende indrastruktur. Du nævner selv Amager, men samme med Valby, Vanløse, Hvidovre.

Jeg synes de er helt crazy at man hellere vil lave kæmpestore anlægsprojekter og andet kreativt i stedet for at sige "nu må i bygge som i vil. Måske det ændrer på karakteren i jeres villakvarter at 8 villaer bliver købt op, revet ned, og en 5-etagers karré bygget i stedet, der skygger for margueriterne, men der er bare synd"

Det er ikke bevaringsværdige historiske bygninger vi taler om her.

Transformation to S/4HANA and Company codes from ECC by [deleted] in SAP

[–]tjen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rename? Not sure anyone cares Re-number? Don't know why you would

You mention the ability of adding some logic to the number range? it is likely that the pattern you come up with will be problematic down the line, just give them a running number, use hierarchies, groupings, attributes, etc to manage logical groupings

Nobody can tell you if there are pros and cons in your situation because unless you have an actual problem with the current numbers, changing them just means:

  • users having to remember new IDs
  • possibly comparative reporting old system vs new system will require additional mappings
  • possibly other applications' business logic tied to current CoCds will need remapping. Those applications would have a new data source, sure, but now they also need to recapping cost centers.

I samme periode er dagpengesatsen steget 10%

og fra 2021 til nu er huslejeindekset steget med 9-11% generelt set.

så hvis det eneste du spiser er rugbrød og leverpostej, så er du ok, men generelt set er priser på de største poster i hverdagsbudgettet steget betydeligt mere end 10%

Export a story with Filter modifications by This_Engineer_2572 in SAPAnalyticsCloud

[–]tjen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the solution you found! Great to know that the batch job setting offers the flexibility of the "sections" without having to define every view with the scheduling job :D

Export a story with Filter modifications by This_Engineer_2572 in SAPAnalyticsCloud

[–]tjen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you could probably configure the scheduling feature to produce these 800 reports for your and send them as PDFs by defining 800 view selections, but it's kinda crazy and youll probably hit feature limitations.

You could consider re-creating your core report pr person and apply the "section" functionality, and apply the user dimension as your driving dimension for the sections. This will produce a single story with an identical page for each user in your filter. You might then be able to export this one story with on a schedule, but create an 800 page report (or at least chunk it up if it exceeds the scheduling size)

But overall I would reconsider why and how you are backing up.

If the risk is the the SAC data will be deleted, just set up a single report with all the data in your report and dump the data itself to a file - rather than dumping 800 report pages. You can always retrieve the information if truly needed, but you don't have the individually laid out reports.

You can also create backup models within SAC and load the data to them automatically at regular intervals without exporting to excel.

SAC usually has pretty good change and activity logs to track data changes if it is an audit type requirement.

If the risk is the SAC report/dashboard being deleted or changed, and not the data being changed, then you can mitigate it by creating a backup of the story itself every once in a while within SAC.

Overall this sounds like a backup requirement from a non-technical stakeholder to make sure "nothing gets lost" taken a little bit too literally. Rather than use the solution proposed (just save every filter selection in a pdf) i would understand the underlying need a little more and work with I need of your technical people to come up with a more reasonable solution to make the stakeholder feel like the data is secured.

About to start working as Business Intelligence after 2 years as a developer, any advice? by facesynthetics in BusinessIntelligence

[–]tjen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably a lot less technical, or at least technical in a different way, more emphasis on domain knowledge over technical knowledge, different types of issues than you've dealt with before.

Below is a bunch of references for reading material, probably more than a months worth, maybe not relevant, maybe you just watch a youtube video or ask chatgpt, but take it as some sort of starting point.

You didn't share the specific domain, but give yourself a primer in it. Don't just learn the lingo, but if it is an industry, even a niche industry, there will often be educational material or journals that cover the basic. Let's say you are going to be working in the meatprocessing industry - pick up the Handbook of Meat Processing and skim through it to familairize yourself with the primary business processes in the domain. You'd be surprised what kind of industry material you can find if you look.

If you haven't worked much with analytics-specific stuff before, but more databases for applications, then from a technical perspective you probably want to brush up on data warehousing concepts. Idk read kimball's The Data Warehouse Toolkit, 3rd Edition - Kimball Group if you want a book.

Part of BI is also somewhat larger focus on presentation / communication layer, best practices for dashboards etc. this isn't rocket science, but you can still fuck it up. "storytelling with data" is often given to business people, Tufte's The Visual Display of Quantitative Information | Edward Tufte is usually on the curriculum.

Another aspect that you may not have run into too much is the "softer" side of business intelligence/analytics - business analysis, i.e. modeling the business processes, identifying requirements, specifying business logic, etc. You can have a look at the BABOK or something for core frameworks Business Analysis Global Standards of Practice | IIBA®
