Features

In the main menu, you can choose Environment to jump to the Data Mining Workbench, DataStore object maintenance, the Data Warehousing Workbench or the BEx Analyzer.

The following functions are available in the toolbar:

Display/Change

If you call up an analysis process that already exists, it appears in display mode first.

Active <-> Inactive

With this function, you can switch back and forth between versions.

Full Screen On/Off

Use this function to hide the hierarchical display of the analysis process in order to get a larger work area for modeling the analysis process.

Check

Use this function to check your analysis process is complete and consistent.

Schedule Job

Use this function to schedule the execution of your analysis process in the background.

Job overview

Use this function to jump to the analysis process monitor. The analysis processes for a selected period are displayed on the left-side of the screen area in a tree structure. You can change the period selection using Filter. You can adjust the tree structure to your needs using Configure Tree.

When you double click an analysis process, the details are displayed on the right-hand side of the screen. General information on the analysis process is displayed on the Header tab page. The Log tab page displays the messages for each processing step.

Undo / Restore

You can use this function to undo previous actions and to restore actions you have undone.

Importing and Exporting Analysis Processes

You can export a model into an XML file and import this file back into the system. In this way, you can transfer a model into another application. However, this is only possible when all of the nodes used are available in the application into which you want to import them.

You import the XML file by first creating a model in the application and then entering the properties of the model. Then choose Import Analysis Process.

Create Data Mining Models

Use Create Data Mining Models to get to the data mining workbench in order to create data mining models. For more information, see Creating, Changing and Activating Models.
