This is the second blog post on Data Integration via SDI after the Introduction post. Refer to the Part 1 for configuring DP Agent and creation of Remote Source connection and Virtual Table.
Data Modeling in HANA:
1. Create a Calculation View using the Virtual Tables VBAK and VBAP created in Part 1.
2. Drag & drop two Projection Node.
3. To add a table to the Projection Node, click on the green plus symbol as shown in the below image. On the search area, enter the name of the table VBAK & VBAP,. The system will display the list of all database objects which have VBAK & VBAP in their name.
4.Select the necessary fields from VBAK and VBAP tables.
5.Drag & drop Join Node and expand the Join Type section, this opens the drop down where you can select Left Outer Join.

6.Create BEx Query on top of Composite Provider by right clicking on the Composite Provider–>New–>Query.
7.Drag and drop the necessary fields/InfoObject in query panel and save the Query.
8. Run RSRT and verify the Query Output.
Conclusion:
In Part 1 of the blog series we have configured the DP Agent and created Remote Source connection. In Part 2 we have created Real Time data flow in BW/4HANA.
Hi Geetha,
I am new to SAP Hana SDI, I have requirement to Integrate SDI with MDG and Replicate MDG Data. Since I am new to this tool I am confused about the requirements to setup the scenario. Could you please provide if you have any idea how to replicate MDG data in SDI.
