Abstract
According to some embodiments, information may be received about a non-relational database object, such as an InfoSet, InfoSet query, or Advanced Business Application Programming (“ABAP”) function for an enterprise resource planning system. The non-relational database object may then be mapped into a relational database model, such as a model associated with a business intelligence platform. As a result, Structured Query Language (“SQL”) inputs from a business intelligence platform may be used create reports based on information in an enterprise resource planning system.
Claims14
A non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing program code executable by a computer processor to perform a method, wherein execution of the code causes the computer processor to:
- receive information about a non-relational database object having a plurality of fields, wherein the non-relational database object represents one of an InfoSet or an InfoSet query;
- create a first table associated with the non-relational database object;
- and
- map the non-relational database object into a relational database model by mapping each field to an input column of the first table.
A method comprising:
- receiving information about a non-relational database object having a plurality of fields, wherein the non-relational database object represents one of an InfoSet or an InfoSet query;
- creating, via a processor, a first table associated with the non-relational database object;
- and
- mapping the non-relational database object into a relational database model by mapping each field to an input column of the first table.
