Hi All,

I am wondering if there is a way to model HANA Calculation View in Power Designer.

I noticed that Calculation Views aren't supported by PD. Is there a workaround to be able to model Calculation View in PD.

Thanks and Regards,

Katarzyna

At least , it would make some sense that SAP quickly provide a way to modelise calc views, as it seems that the ToBe Modeling  Architecture principally rely on that kind of objects.

In the SPS09 Web Workbench, only the calculation views are managed (so far ?). It seems on the intention of SAP to slowly but surely kill the attribute & analytical views and replace them with respectively dimension and cube calculation views. (cf. SAP HANA SPS 09: New Developer Features; SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench, from Thomas Jung)

Then I am wondering if Powerdesigner is not just double doing the work of HANA Studio, there.

The Tools are complementary, as the modeling tool is definely missig the architecture & semantic layer, when Powedesigner is only poorly leveraging the code generation capabilities the we use daily via modeling in the Studio.

So I guess some merging - or plug-in, or add-on, whatever... Of those 2 eclipse based Tools would be more than welcome.
