Note: If an active version of the affected objects exist, activating the current view redeploys the<br />

affected objects. You can also activate an object from the object context menu in the Navigator panel.<br />

Tip: You can choose to activate the other objects (required or impacted objects) along with the<br />

currenct object using the Save and Activate All option in the toolbar.<br />

Note:<br />

Restriction: The behavior of analytic views with the new editor is as follows:<br />

○ When an object (a table of or an attribute view) is removed and added again in an attribute<br />

view and analytic view editor in order to reflect the recently modified columns with its data<br />

type, it reflects the previous state of the columns . For more information about the<br />

problem and its solution, see <strong>SAP</strong> Note 1783668.<br />

○ When you open an analytic view and there is a missing column in the required object, an<br />

error is shown and the editor does not open. For information regarding the solution of this<br />

issue, see <strong>SAP</strong> Note 1788552.<br />

6.2.6 Calculation Views<br />

A calculation view is used to define more advanced slices on the data in <strong>SAP</strong> <strong>HANA</strong> database. Calculation views<br />

can be simple and mirror the functionality found in both attribute views and analytic views. However, they are<br />

typically used when the business use case requires advanced logic that is not covered in the previous types of<br />

information views.<br />

For example, calculation views can have layers of calculation logic, can include measures sourced from multiple<br />

source tables, can include advanced SQL logic, and so on. The data foundation of the calculation view can include<br />

any combination of tables, column views, attribute views and analytic views. You can create joins, unions,<br />

projections, and aggregation levels on the sources.<br />

You can model the following elements within a calculation view:<br />

● Attributes<br />

● Measures<br />

● Calculated measures<br />

● Counters<br />

● Hierarchies (created outside of the attribute view)<br />

● Variables<br />

● Input parameters<br />
