Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioRequirements & Prototyping Start with understanding the business problems, not the data structure Use a “Top – Down” approach Learn about existing “solutions” to the problem Do reports or dashboards already exist ?How are people using them ?What do people “like” and “don’t like” about them ?“A day in their shoes” Start with the ProblemLearn what the associated business goals areIdentify how the impact can be measuredIf needed follow your usersRecord their workflowsRemember : Different business area can mean different skill set A power user in Finance a power user in salesYou are not the expert – you are there to listen and take lots of notes 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioRequirements & Prototyping Which business problem are you trying to solve ?We are currently unable to quickly see a holistic view on our overall worldwideproduct sales performance. We are unable to identify underperforming products andwe are unable to compare sales by individual countries, individual products, orindividual sales representatives. What are your measurable goals ? What is your “to-be-state” ? Increase the close rate of the individual sales rep by 10%Increase product profitability by 20% by removing least profitable productsIncrease sales pipeline by 25% in Latin America and AfricaReduce Product Cost by 15% by eliminating low performing products What can we “visualize” to measure the impact ?

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioSimple Rules for Dashboard Design – Usage of color Humans can only differentiate effectively around 7 color stepsAdding more qualitative colors usually just adds noise. Sequential scheme: when you are ordering values from low to high.Divergent scheme: when the values are ordered and there is a critical mid-point (e.g.an average or zero).Categorical scheme: when data falls into distinct groups (e.g. Prodocuts) andtherefore requires contrast between adjacent colors. 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance Topics

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Design Studio Data sources Data Sources Only load those data sources at startup, that are really needed for the initial screenIn case of tabs / pagebooks, load data sources per “view”Add logic to not load the data twiceAdd “Background processing” to your application Screens become visible quicker, while data sources are still loading Note: SAP BusinessObjects Design Studio is loading the data source sequentially (not in parallel)prior to release 1.5Parallel Loading of BEx Queries is planned for the release 1.5 of SAP Design Studio 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – BEx Query Design BEx Query Design For large sets of key figures, use the option - “Use Selection of Structure Members” intransaction RSRT (Query Monitor) as part of the Query PropertiesQuery Read Mode should be configured to read data while navigate (Transaction RSRT,Query Monitor)Leverage the capabilities of the Restricted Key and Calculated Key FiguresLeverage SAP Variables as part of the BEx Query Can be shared across queries, minimizing development downstream List of Values are being generated automatically 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – BEx Query Design Display Attributes As part of the definition of Display Attributes in SAP NetWeaver BW it is also possible toconfigure if the Display Attribute should be displayed as part of the F4 Help / List of Valuesfor a BEx Variable.As large list of values can consume a lot memory, you should consider carefully if thoseDisplay Attributes are really needed as part of the list of values and in case they are notneeded you should remove them from the list of value by changing the configuration inSAP NetWeaver BW.Additional Option: Starting with SAP NetWeaver BW 7.01 Support Package 09 / SAP NetWeaver BW 7.30Support Package 3 customers can use the BAdI RSR VARIABLE F4 RESTRICT BADI to use aset of criteria to restrict the list of members for an input screen. For more information, seeF1 help for this BAdI (transaction SE18, enhancement spot RSR VARIABLE F4 RESTRICT).See Note 1416952 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Variables vs Filter Variables vs Filter Design Studio 1.3 does automatically merge all variablesWith release 1.5 the behavior can be configuredChanges to the “variables” will impact all queries that contain variables (also thosedatasources that are not using the involved variable)Use “On Variable Initialization” and not “On Startup” to configure defaults (avoiding secondinitialization)There are three options to filter data (ordered according to performance impact –High to Low)1. setVariable2. setFilter3. setDataSelection 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Variables Variables If needed set variable values right after each other (setVariableValue) Results in a single backend callTry to use “On Variable Initialization” over “On Startup” Variable Initialization happens before Startup If done at “On Startup” you might initialize variables twice 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc.

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Parallel Query Execution Parallel Query Execution / Processing Groups Supported with SAP BusinessObjects Design Studio 1.5 Data Sources can be assigned to a Processing GroupEach Processing Group will result in a single backend sessionExample: Dashboard with 5 BEx Queries configured in 5 Processing Groups ( all queries in a parallel) 5 backend sessions for a single user execution of the dashboard 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.56

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Parallel Query Execution Parallel Query Execution / Processing Groups Allows to parallelize the data requestsResultset requests at rendering are parallelized as wellSession Handling Each processing group results in 1 additional session (per user) Example: Result 5 Processing Groups6 Sessions (1 main session, 1 session per processing group)Sizing Implications Very little impact on memory usageHigher impact on CPU Usage (more requests in a shorter window) Parallel sessions should be considered like additional “concurrent users” More details: SAP Note 1177020 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.57

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Parallel Query Execution Current Limitations for Processing Groups Processing Groups / Parallel query execution is only supported with SAP BusinessObjects BIas platform for SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioParallel query execution can not be used with planning-enabled BEx queriesParallel query execution can not be used in combination with merged variables. Variablesneed to be “un-merged”. 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc. All rights reserved.58

Best Practices for Dashboard Design with SAP BusinessObjects Design StudioPerformance – Parallel Query Execution Should you always use Parallel Data Sources ? Data Sources with short runtime should not always be executed in parallel as the overheadmight become too largeData Sources that need to be “visible” right away for the user are good candidates forbecoming parallel data sourcesAlso consider the time it takes for variables, as variables need to become unmerged 2015 Visual BI Solutions, Inc.
