Which views in SAP S/4HANA embedded analytics may you extend?

In SAP S/4HANA embedded analytics, consumption views are designed specifically for reporting and analytical purposes, enabling users to access and visualize data. These views can be extended to accommodate specific user requirements or to include additional fields, measures, or calculations. By extending consumption views, organizations can tailor the analytic content to better meet their needs for reporting and decision-making.

The nature of consumption views allows for flexibility in how data is presented and utilized. This means that users can enrich the data model with specific business logic or calculations, which is critical in dynamically changing business environments. Extending these views ensures that the analytics component aligns with the evolving needs of the organization and its end-users.

On the other hand, query views, composite views, and interface views serve different purposes. Query views are generally pre-defined for specific analytic scenarios and are optimized for performance but do not typically allow for extensions. Composite views are used to combine multiple data sources, focusing on integrating various data streams, rather than allowing modifications specific to end-user requirements. Interface views are designed to expose data externally and may not support direct extensions as consumption views do. As a result, extending consumption views offers the necessary flexibility and customization that are key to effective analytics in an organization.
