Hi,

While creating Data Model we will do the below things

-->I hope Extract qvd's creation is completed

-->Now take the extracted qvd's into new qvw's do the calculations as per data Mapping document

-->gave Alias names which are understandable in Application.

-->Create variables for the convenience of calculation.

-->Create star schema or Snow flake schema in Data Model so that associating between the tables created and it will reduce Application refreshment time .

-->after created Data model use this as a source file for Application (which is visible to Business user).

and some more points are

  • Less Joins more comfort
  • Avoid Synthetic Keys
  • Circular Loops... No worries, Link Tables are our friends
  • Star or Snowflake.... Both are good  but conditions apply*
  • Build multi tier architecture
  • Cleanse the data before Loading! Handle NULLs in data
  • Delete Unused Columns and Tables
  • Use Data Islands where necessary
  • Join, Concatenate or Keep?... Go with ApplyMap() over Join
  • Check Subset Ratio and Information Density at (Ctrl+T) table viewer
