Sap Bi Data Source

You create a transaction data DataSource to load sales data from a CSV file into the BI system. You define the file adapter, field mapping, data types, formats and referenced fields. Example data is loaded to create a proposal which is then used to define the DataSource fields. The DataSource is activated, creating a table in the PSA where the data will be stored during the transfer.
