    Warum und wann dieser Vorgang ausgeführt wird

    Access external data through the Workflow Data Fabric tables and analyzed it using the Data Context Engine. This data is available in real-time using a zero-copy model and synced only when queried. See Managing zero copy connections for details.

    Prozedur

    1. Navigate to All > Data Context Engine > Data Sourcesand select Create New.
    2. Select Table in the Source field.
    3. In the Source table field, select a Workflow Data Fabric.
    4. On the Data Source Form, fill in the remaining fields.
      For a description of the field values, see Define a table data source page.
    5. Select Submit to create the data source.

    Total licenses used quarterly

    To get the total number of licenses used this quarter across accounts and products from a Workflow Data Fabric table, select:
    • Source table: df_usage_information
    • Conditions: Timestamp between last quarter and today
    • Group by: Account, Product
    • Aggregation: Sum
    • Source Reference: sold_product
    • Source reference resolver: Specify the mapping between the Account and Product combination and the Sold Product table in the script as follows:
      • var account = groupByFieldValueMap[account]
      • var product = groupByFieldValueMap[product]
      Hinweis:
      You must update the Source reference resolver script to specify field mappings only when the Group By field contains:
      • Two fields (maximum allowed).
      • A non-reference field.
      • An external field.
