ETL Flow Diagram for BW

Hi,
We have a BW system extracting data from SAP. The solution is almost entirely based on Generic FM extractors. We have been given a requirement for analyzing the existing reports and putting forth the whole ETL flow and logic in the form of some kind of diagram. Ideally the diagram should show the way data is being pulled from SAP, how it is manipulated by the Update rules and how it gets stored in ODS/Cube and finally emerges as a report in BEx. This diagram need not go too deep into the technicalities and can be at an overview level.
I would like to know if anyone has done something similar before and if there are any best practices or some kind of template diagram formats we could use for this.

Druthi,
Thanks, but that was not what I was looking for. I know about the show data flow option but it is basically just a linear diagram depicting that you have a few cubes, ods's, datasources and some update rules in between. But it tells you very little on how the data is getting transformed.
For example, by looking at that diagram one cannot find out if some data is being deleted in a particular update rule, or if some other ODS is being looked up for some info, or whether it is nothing more than a "dumb" update rule containing no routines, just simple direct assignments.

Is there any process flow diagram for TFS 2013 ?

Hello,
I require to know the reference link of lfow chart to manage work in TFS that indicates following details :
Define sprints and backlog items
Creating tasks and complete them.
I want to know whats the flow chart that indicates the states of updating PBI/Bug/Tasks for whole team in project.
Can anyone please help me on that ?
Thanks and Regards,
Dipti Chhatrapati

Hi Dipti,
Great to hear it was helpful.
You can use PBI flow similar to user story flow. State values are bit different.
User Story it is New-->Active-->Resolved-->Closed and Removed (Removed from backlog).
PBI New -->Approved-->Committed-->Done and Removed (Removed from backlog).
For PBI use the User story flow in below manner would be OK
PBI New - User Story New
PBI Approved - User Story New (Team can work on this , work on this in a Sprint)
PBI Committed - User Story Active/Resolved (Team made commitment) for PBI assigned person if developer then still in development, if assigned to QA then QA verification going on once QA done assign to PO)
PBI Done - User Story Closed - Confirmed by PO
Cheers!

Hi,
I have already posted a thread regarding Data Flow diagram for existing source code. But I couldn't find find where exactly I have posted. So here I am posting my observations. I would like to prepare a Data Flow diagram for existing Source code. Using Visustin V7 I got the Data Flow Diagram. But am not able to export or Save or Print the diagram. As some one suggested it is possible to get the DFD using Visio. But am not able to get the DFD. Here am getting the problem like , Gave user name and Server name by connecting to ODBC. But still am not getting the required DFD.
Can you please suggest me is there any way to get the DFD using Visio or any tool is there to get the DFD.
Please advice.
Thanks.

ApexLib: Get a Page Flow Diagram of your application!

Yesterday I came across Graphviz and remembered that a college had already used it to generate some ERDs/Class diagrams. After taking a closer look, I thought to give it a try and use it to generate a page flow diagram for an APEX application as you can also see it for JSF in JDeveloper.
It's part of the ApexLib Framework and it's FREE! ;-)
Get the details at http://inside-apex.blogspot.com/2007/01/apexlib-get-page-flow-diagram-of-your.html
A diagram sometimes says more than 1000 words... - Simple translation from german :-)
Have fun

Check out my APEX-blog: http://inside-apex.blogspto.com

Hi Carl,
in the ApexLib_Generate_PageFlowDiagram.sql script you have the possibility to change the call to the Graphviz tool. According to there documentation the dot tool has several supported output format.
eg. '$dot -Tpng -o%filename.png -Tsvg -o%filename.svg %filename.dot'would produce a PNG and a SVG file. There is no option for PDF, but in there FAQs (http://www.graphviz.org/doc/FAQ.html) they have the following workaround. They first create a Postscript output and then use a Postscript2PDF converter to get the PDF output. On LINUX it would probably look like
'$dot -Tps -o%filename.ps | epsf2pdf -o %filename.pdf'On Windows you have to get a PDF converter and the hole call in the script would look like
BEGIN
    ApexLib_PageFlowDiagram.generateCommands
      ( pGraphvizCommand      => '$dot -Tps -o%filename.ps %filename.dot'||CHR(10)||
                                 '$pdfconverter %filename.ps %filename.pdf'
      , pSkipSelfReference    => TRUE
      , pSkipDynamicReference => TRUE
      , pSkipSharedComponents => TRUE
END;Hope this helps

I can't find it either. Pratgeek, what was the name of the application you used in Ubuntu? Is there a website for it?
probably a kind of necrobump, but i've been searching for flowchart drawing software, and found this topic.
well, mentioned tdfd is the part of software suite called TCM available at least in debian/ubuntu.
it appears to be really old, i could found only user guide and ubuntu/debian package pages on the web, but it appears to be working quite well.
i've installed it on my ubuntu machine just half an hour ago, but it seems to be at least worth to play with, and i'd even make a PKGBUILD if i like it.

WM process flow diagram

Can anybody help me to get process flow diagram of any standard WMS in SAP?
I appriciate your help
Thanks,

HI ,
Refer the general scenario followed most commonly in WM,
A) IN MM At the time of good receipt MIGO
1.creation of transfer requirement takes place. Material Goes to Interim Storage type (902)
2. Transfer order from TR is created ( we get destination storage type) -- In LT04 or LT06
3. Confirmation of TO.(Put away completed ) In LT12
B) IN PP
1. Requirement we get from MD11,MD04,CO01.(staging , BOM Explosion etc.)
this time Generally TR, will be created Automatically( As per setting).
With LB10 TR to TO
TO will be confirmed in staging process.(Quantity of picked materials will be reduced )
(Hear the raw material will be consumed. & TR for finished material will be created.)
With LB10 we can perform creation of TO.
TO for finished material will be confirmed when it will placed in the destination Bin.
Hear we will get the Finished good in the Unrestricted stock.
C)IN SD.
Creation of sale order: VA01
Creation of Outbound deliveryu2019s TO. VL01
TO confirmation after reaching to destination.LT03 then LT12 to confirm.
Dev.

Searchable Flow Diagrams?

Upon Conversion to PDF our flow diagrams are becoming non
searchable images. Is there anything we can do in Word or Acrobat to
get them to convert as searchable text? Please note that Adobe
Acrobat 9.0 OCR is at best 75% effective in rendering our flow
diagrams as searchable text.
Thank you

UML 2.0 (Unified Modeling Language) is what you are looking for. Googling UML and/or the types of diagrams you need
should give you more hits than you can handle.
You can also check Safari, Amazon, etc. for many UML specific books, beginner and beyond.
Your forum transgression could be forgiven since it can be argued that being able to model the system you are trying
to design is a necessary skill for any programmer/engineer - Java or otherwise.
But in this case, I think it is especially relevant to Java since it is such a strongly object oriented language.
The only thing I would note is that the diagrams you are tasked with making should have been done before writing the app.
