Can any one guide me steps to build data lineage

Hi Qlikers,

Need to build data lineage for the client. So any help on the same would be appreciated.

Any documents related to the process carried out for the same would help.

That's a big topic for one morning...

Maybe start with the governance dashboard and its lineage tab.

Thanks for the response swuehl.

After surfing through the internet I got a Qlikview file along with the source excel file which has the respective sheets of :SOURCE,EXTRACT,TRANSFORM,LOADING,QVDMAPPING and PHOTOOperation. Do you or anyone in the community have any idea about the steps/process to create this excel file. I think this will solve the purpose.

I think it would be helpful if you post the link to that QVW and Excel so we know what you are talking about?
