Presenter: Dave Rathbun September 21st 2009
Universe Designer for non-ERP Data Models held by Dave Rathbun.
SAP has done a lot of work in a very short time to make it possible to connect to ERP data sources via a Business Objects universe. However, the universe concept has been in action for over a decade and is not limited to the ERP environment. In this hour we will see some of the philosophy behind universe design as well as some of the critical advantages that a proper universe can bring to the table.
