The behavior of a modeled dataflow in SAP BW/4HANA depends on several factors, including theDelta Management methodof the DataSource, thetype of DataStore object (advanced)used as the target, and theupdate methodapplied to key figures in the transformation. To ensure consistent and accurate information in the target, these components must align correctly.

Option B:

DataSource with Delta Management method ABR:TheABR (After Image + Before Image)method tracks both the before and after states of changed records. This is ideal for scenarios where updates need to be accurately reflected in the target system.

DataStore Object (advanced) type Stard:AStaging and Reporting DataStore Object (Stard)is designed for staging data and enabling reporting simultaneously. It supports detailed tracking of changes, making it compatible with ABR.

Update method Summation:Thesummationupdate method aggregates key figures by adding new values to existing ones. This is suitable for ABR because it ensures that updates are accurately reflected without overwriting previous data.

Option C:

DataSource with Delta Management method ABR:As explained above, ABR is ideal for tracking changes.

DataStore Object (advanced) type Stard:Stard supports detailed tracking of changes, making it compatible with ABR.

Update method Move:Themoveupdate method overwrites existing key figure values with new ones. This is also valid for ABR because it ensures that the latest state of the data is reflected in the target.

Option D:

DataSource with Delta Management method ABR:ABR ensures accurate tracking of changes.

DataStore Object (advanced) type Data Mart:AData MartDataStore Object is optimized for reporting and analytics. It can handle aggregated data effectively, making it compatible with ABR.

Update method Summation:Summation is appropriate for aggregating key figures in a Data Mart, ensuring consistent and accurate results.

Correct Combinations:

Option A:

DataSource with Delta Management method ADD:TheADDmethod only tracks new records (inserts) and does not handle updates or deletions. This makes it incompatible with Stard and summation/move update methods, which require full change tracking.

DataStore Object (advanced) type Stard:Stard requires detailed change tracking, which ADD cannot provide.

Update method Move:Move is not suitable for ADD because it assumes updates or changes to existing data.

Option E:

DataSource with Delta Management method AIE:TheAIE (After Image Enhanced)method tracks only the after state of changed records. While it supports some scenarios, it is less comprehensive than ABR and may lead to inconsistencies in certain combinations.

DataStore Object (advanced) type Data Mart:Data Mart objects require accurate aggregation, which AIE may not fully support.

Update method Summation:Summation may not work reliably with AIE due to incomplete change tracking.

Incorrect Options:

SAP Data Engineer - Data Fabric Context:In the context ofSAP Data Engineer - Data Fabric, ensuring consistent and accurate dataflows is critical for building reliable data pipelines. The combination of Delta Management methods, DataStore object types, and update methods must align to meet specific business requirements. For example:

Stardobjects are often used for staging and operational reporting, requiring detailed change tracking.

Data Martobjects are used for analytics, requiring aggregated and consistent data.

By selectingB,C, andD, you ensure that the combinations provide consistent and accurate information for the target.
