Key Considerations for SAPinsiders
Plan how SAP Lumira fits within your portfolio: SAP Lumira provides various tools and deployment units. While Lumira, discovery edition, is the client for business users who need the “self-service” tool to connect to data and work offline, SAP Lumira, designer edition, is the rich client for professional analysis application designers to create corporate analysis applications and reports.
- Understand the interface with SAP BusinessObjects: SAP Lumira server is installed on the SAP BusinessObjects platform and enables the execution of outputs created by discovery and designer. This allows you to integrate SAP Lumira with SAP BusinessObjects and leverage aspects of SAP Lumira. For example, business users can explore SAP Lumira documents from the BI launchpad in their browsers. You can learn more here.
- Understand tool limitations and build workarounds: Understand aspects like the lack of ability to view data offline and interact with visualizations offline or not being able to publish on-premise-generated information in the cloud. Understanding limitations like these allows you to find the most optimal way to leverage these tools. SAP blogs have several examples of discussions about these limitations.
- Pay attention to input data quality: Some SAP Lumira users highlight issues with control over data import formatting. For example, if you are importing data about currency, you may not have enough control over transforming the format, sometimes leading to truncating values due to punctuations. As a result, underlying data becomes critical.
