SF Live events (sf-live-events) - 2026-02-11T13:11:44.355Z

To achieve data consistency, standardized master data is a major element of the enterprise data warehouse. In this session, we will talk about different concepts for master data implementation with SAP BW/4HANA, including modeling, implementing manual data changes and automatic data loads for attributes and hierarchies. You will learn how SAP BW/4HANA provides powerful features to reduce the workload by loading only those attribute values or hierarchy parts that were changed. Key features which will be shown in the system demo include enhanced master data update, split attributes, and hierarchy updates.
