Child Warehouse Source to Parent Live Access Source
Important: This scenario is supported for Appliance spaces where the Live Access source is located on the same database instance as the Birst warehouse.
Tip: Starting with 5.20.4, for Live Access sources modeled in Manage Local Sources, in the child space use Manage Local Sources – Joins – Add Join to create a join between a child dimension and parent fact, and/or between a child fact and a parent dimension.
- Create the package in the parent space. Include the Data Flow Live Access data source in the package. See Creating a Package.
- Import the package to the child space. See Importing a Package.
- In the child space, go to Admin - Define Sources - Data Flow.
- Right-click on the warehouse dimension or fact in the child space and select Join to a Related Source.
- Drag-and-drop the line on the imported Live Access source.
Tip: If Birst does not allow a join, it may be because the data sources are on different database instances. Contact your Infor representative. - Specify the join.
- All columns can be selected for the live access source. However, for the warehouse source only level key columns can be included in the join.
- Create your reports and dashboards using the blended data.
