SAP BI Questions - SAP Certification

SAP BI Questions

Here you will find sample SAP BI questions and mock tests for

SAP BI certification that are relatively similar to the original

exam. You should definitely use them during preparation for

the certification, because it will help you to familiarize yourself

with the exam format, test your knowledge, identify areas that

require additional attention, and sometimes these sample

questions are just a little bit similar to what you might encounter at the real exam.

SAP BI Certification Questions

Before you read these sample questions, it is necessary to make one thing crystal

clear: there is absolutely no way to get SAP BI questions that will appear at the actual

certification. There are several reasons why it is not possible. First, no one has access

to the bank of the certification questions because they are kept in the utmost secrecy.

Second, the pool of questions that SAP has is so large that, even if someone could

extract some questions from the secret database, the probability of getting these SAP

BI questions at the exam is extremely low because the questions are randomly

selected by a computer. Therefore, do not believe the people who try to sell you SAP

BI questions and promise that after studying them you will definitely pass SAP BI

certification.

During SAP BI certification you will be required to answer 80 multiple choice

questions. There is no negative marking for incorrect answers. It means that you

should try to answer as many questions as possible even if you are not sure what is

the correct answer. You will be given 180 minutes to complete the certification. The

current passing score for SAP BI certification is around 60%.

the answers and explanations for SAP BI questions.

1. c

Transposing a wide data record into several smaller records is called Pivoting. Pivoting

can be easily implemented using the expert routine.

2. a, c


15 of 30 10/14/2015 7:19 PM

are stored in the P table. Time-dependent attributes are stored in the Q table.

4. c

DataStore object uses ORECORDMODE InfoObject for delta load. ORECORDMODE

has values as ‘X’, ‘D’, ‘R’. In delta data load, ‘X’ means rows to be skipped, values ‘D’

and ‘R’ are for deleting and removing the rows.

5. c

The ALPHA conversion is used in the BI system for each presetting for character

characteristics. The ALPHA conversion routine is registered automatically when a

characteristic is created. If you do not want to use this routine, you have to remove it

manually.

6. c

A new DataStore type in BI 7.0 is write-optimized DataStore object. It has no change

log and no activation queue. Delta would be captured on request level for a write-

optimized DataStore object. Similarly, DataStore Objects for Direct Update consist of a

table for active data only, and therefore, no change log and no activation queue are

generated.

7. a, c, d

Virtual Providers only allow read access to data. They do not allow write access to

data.

8. a

Reduced read-only performance is accepted as a drawback of real-time InfoCubes, in

favor of the option of parallel (transactional) writing and improved write performance.

9. b, d

The system does not generate SIDs for write-optimized DataStore objects and you do

not need to activate them. This means that you can save and further process data

quickly. The loaded data is not aggregated; the history of the data is retained.

10. c

Direct Update DataStore object cannot be used for transformation upload scenarios –

there is no loading into the DataStore object for direct update within BI. It is not

possible to include Direct Update DataStore object into a MultiProvider. Direct Update


16 of 30 10/14/2015 7:19 PM

12. e

The quality of an InfoCube is generally measured with respect to query efficiency, load

efficiency and manageability.

13. a, b, d

Do not use more than one non-cumulative InfoCube because this could lead to

incorrect query results. Do not use calculations before aggregation on MultiProvider

because this may lead to wrong query results. Do not combine basic InfoProviders

having inhomogeneous data models in a MultiProvider. Avoid using only parts of

compound characteristics in the constituent basic InfoProvider of a MultiProvider.

14. c

InfoSets are exceptions to this rule, as the most recent reporting function can be

switched on in the InfoSet Builder. In such an InfoSet, the most recent records are

displayed in reporting, even if they are not yet active.

15. a, b

In the BEx Analyzer, it is not possible to display an exception in a cell other than the

cell than contains the threshold values. In the BEx Analyzer, it is not possible to apply

the selected condition on the last characteristic of a specific axis only.

16. c, d

Display attributes cannot be shown in a report in the drilldown. Navigation attributes

result in slight loss in performance in comparison with using characteristics.

17. a, b, c

We can recalculate the key figures of an InfoProvider for re-use in the Query Designer

using formulas. Calculated key figures consist of formula definitions containing basic

key figures, restricted key figures or pre-calculated key figures.

18. a, d, e

Structures and filters can be defined for reuse. But, variables, restricted key figures

and calculated key figures are always re-usable.

19. a, b, c, d

Queries, transactions, reports, and web addresses can be jump targets.


17 of 30 10/14/2015 7:19 PM

(%CT) is used, dynamic filters do not play a role in calculating the query result.

22. a, c

The processing type Authorization can be used with characteristic value variables and

hierarchy node variables.

23. a, c

The Cell Editor is a function of the BEx Query Designer. You can select it if the query

definition contains two structures. You can define a maximum of two structures in a

query definition. You can define cells that have no direct relationship to the

corresponding structure parts. Cells are not displayed, and serve as containers for

auxiliary selections or formulas.

24. b, c

The processing type replacement path can be used with characteristic value variables,

text variables and formula variables.

25. b, c

Selecting Variable offsets is only available for Characteristic value variables of the type

single value or interval.

26. b

UD Connect transfers the data as flat data. Multi-dimensional data is converted to a

flat format when we use UD Connect.

27. d

The data source for a generic data source can be transparent tables, database views

and InfoSet Query.

28. b, c

The DB Connect Data Sources do not support delta processes. A (Pseudo) delta

update can be performed in this case using a selection. DB Connect DataSources

support only the PSA transfer method.

29. d

All the 3 restrictions apply when using InfoObjects with UD Connect.


18 of 30 10/14/2015 7:19 PM

delta and “Delete and add”/”Pseudo delta”.

32. c

Relational and multidimensional data stores in the data source are designated as UD

Connect source object (such as tables and cubes).

33. c

In the original system, you can restore 3.x DataSources from DataSources that were

migrated in the standard way (SAP source system, file, DB Connect). 3.x XML

DataSources and 3.x UD Connect DataSources cannot be migrated in the standard

way because the 3.x objects are created in the Myself system and in the new data flow

the DataSources need to be created in separate source systems for Web Service and

UD Connect.

34. a, b

The InfoProvider defines the data basis for planning. This involves real-time InfoCubes

and MultiProviders. For real-time InfoCubes you can define permitted combinations of

characteristic values in the form of characteristic relationships and create data slices

for data that you want to protect.

35. a, c

The standard key date is a key date that is used in the entire planning model. It can be

set for every real-time enabled InfoCube in the characteristic relationships. The

options that are available to set a key date are: Unspecified, Fixed Date and From

Variable. If the aggregation level was created directly on a real-time enabled InfoCube,

the standard key date is the same key date that is set in the characteristic

relationships on this InfoCube.

36. c, d

You can create multiple aggregation levels for an InfoProvider. Aggregation levels can

also be created on MultiProviders. An aggregation level is set using a set of

characteristics and key figures from the underlying InfoProvider. The key figures

included in the aggregation level are aggregated using the characteristics that are not

included in the aggregation level. Aggregation levels are used as InfoProviders for

planning: with an aggregation level, you model levels whose data can be changed

manually using input-ready queries or automatically using planning functions.

39. c

The following lock modes are available. E (exclusive): Write lock that is used for all

data that is edited in change mode; the data is locked and can be edited by one user

only. S (shared): Read lock that means that reference data for planning functions, for

example, cannot be changed at runtime.

40. a, b, d

Unlike BEx objects, however, planning objects are written to the BEx transport request

or requests, even if the standard transport system is switched on. This applies to the

aggregation level, characteristic relationship, data slice, planning function, planning

sequence and planning function type from the planning area.

41. c

Planning sequences are used within BI Integrated Planning to group planning

functions. They allow you to save groups of planning functions in a sorted sequence

and execute groups of planning functions sequentially. Planning Sequences can be

linked to a variant of variable values.

42. a, b, e

Analysis Process Designer is the application environment for the SAP data mining

solution. Analysis Process Designer makes it possible to identify hidden relationships

between data in a simple way. Analysis processes are integrated into the versioning

concept.

43. a, c

You can transfer data from the following sources in SAP BW to SAP CRM: (1)

InfoObject attributes, such as attributes for the InfoObject Business Partner

(0BPARTNER); (2) Queries, in which the master data – such as the business partner –

is unique.

44. c

Remodeling can be done for InfoCubes and DataStore objects. We can change

InfoCubes and DataStore objects without building them from scratch – improved

flexibility. To access re-modeling option select InfoCube/DataStore object -> right click

Additional function -> Remodeling.

45. b

47. a, b, c

Any type of BEx Web query, Report or Web application can be converted to PDF and

printed.

48. c

BEx Web Analyzer allows web-based ad-hoc query and analysis on BI and 3rd-party

BI data.

49. b

BEx Report Designer allows the creation of highly formatted Enterprise Reports.

50. a, b

BEx Map is a part of the BEx Analyzer and appears in a new worksheet in the

workbook. The size of the BEX Map corresponds to the initial size of the workbook.

51. d

There are four options to choose from.

1. Static geo-characteristic: For this type you can use shape files (country borders, for

example), to display the characteristic on a map in the Business Explorer.

2. Dynamic Geo-Characteristic: For this type geo-attributes are generated that make it

possible, for example, to display customers as a point on a map.

3. Dynamic Geo-Characteristic with Attribute Values: For this type the geo-attributes of

a geo-characteristic of type 2, which is an attribute, are used.

4. Static geo-characteristic with geo-attributes: Just like static geo-characteristics, with

the addition of generated geo-attributes.

52. a, c

The BEX Web Analyzer is a standalone Web application that can be called through a

URL by specifying the template ID 0ANALYZER. You can also call the BEx Web

Analyzer as an iView in the Enterprise Portal.

53. e

55. a

Migrated documents are not available in the BEx Analyzer. You should migrate

documents only if they do not use the BEx Analyzer or do not use it in connection with

documents.

56. a

The SOAP based transfer of data is only possible for flat structures. You cannot

transfer hierarchy data.

57. c

The interface used depends on the platform: OLE DB for OLAP requires MS Windows,

OLAP BAPI requires an SAP platform. XML for Analysis is platform independent.

58. b

As a prerequisite for using aggregates, all the data required by an InfoCube must be

readable using logical access. For an InfoCube within an InfoSet with InfoCubes, it is

no longer possible to read part of the data from one aggregate and part of the data

from another aggregate or the InfoCube itself. The system cannot access BI

accelerator indexes within an InfoSet.

59. a, c

Aggregates can be created only for InfoCubes. Aggregates can be automatically

proposed by the BI system. The various options available are Proposal from Query,

proposal from BI Statistics (tables), proposal from BI Statistics (InfoCubes) and

proposal from previous navigation.

60. a, d

Aggregates use the same Start Schema design that cubes use. Aggregates do not

contain all the data from InfoCubes, thus, they cannot replace InfoCubes. Aggregates

require no special knowledge by an end-user, as they are completely transparent. The

only way the end-user might recognize the existence of an aggregate is by the

performance gain that is observed. Aggregates are for InfoCubes what indexes are for

database tables.

61. a, b

Usage of a BI Accelerator results in performance improvements by factor 10-100 (very

fast query response time), planned support of new hardware paradigms like

63. b

Between using a navigational attribute versus a characteristic, the first option is better

for load performance whereas the second option is better for query performance.

64. b

A special type of InfoPackage is used for real-time data acquisition (SAPI and Web

service) and when using Web services for standard update (with a standard data

transfer process). This InfoPackage type is called InfoPackage for Real-Time Data

Acquisition. Requests that are instantiated using an InfoPackage for real-time data

acquisition remain open across several load processes. For real-time data acquisition

(SAPI and Web service), the daemon processes the InfoPackage. In the InfoPackage

for real-time data acquisition, the size and time limits for requests can be specified.

65. b

DataSources that are used for real-time data acquisition cannot be used in the delta

process for standard data transfer. A data transfer with RDA and a scheduled data

transfer cannot be executed simultaneously in the delta process for a DataSource

because there may be only one entry in the delta queue for each DataSource and

target system.

66. a, b, e

Using API and using a Meta chain the start of the process chain can be triggered. A

start process can only be used in a single process chain and only one start process is

allowed for each process chain.

67. c

Collector processes are used to manage multiple predecessor processes that feed into

the same subsequent process. The collector processes available are AND, OR and

EXOR (Exclusive ‘OR’).

68. a, b, e

Conversion types can be used for unit conversion within transformation rules, BEx

Analyzer and within planning functions.

69. a, d

By default, the type of the index on the dimension and fact tables is Bitmap. For high


23 of 30 10/14/2015 7:19 PM

You cannot migrate hierarchy DataSources, DataSources that use the IDoc transfer

method, DataSources from BAPI source systems, or export DataSources (namespace

8* or /*/8*) that are used by the data mart interface.

72. a, b, c, d

BI objects such as InfoCubes, DataStore objects, MultiProviders or InfoObjects

(attributes or texts) can function as open hub data sources.

73. c

The maximum number of key fields that you can have in a DataStore object is 16.

74. d

The maximum number of hierarchy levels that can be created for a characteristic

InfoObject is 98.

75. a, c

InfoCube is more normalized than DataStore object. Surrogate IDs (SIDs) are static.

76. b

If the InfoCube is compressed, delta cannot be determined -> Cache entry will be built

up completely.

77. e

The distribution options available are ‘broadcast as e-mail’, ‘broadcast to portal’ and

‘print’. Additional options are available to system administrators and business experts.

78. a, d

Exceptions can be evaluated online when executing the query or the Web application.

Exceptions can be evaluated for a large number of queries in the background with the

BEx Broadcaster.

79. b, c

The Report Designer is a tool you use to format and adapt the layout of your business

data as a report (static or dynamic) and according to your needs. The data binding for

the report is provided by data providers (queries and query views). The Report
