To combine two dimensions, Firstname and Lastname, into a single dimension displaying as Lastname, Firstname in a live data model, you should create a calculated dimension in the data model. This calculated dimension will concatenate the two fields into one, according to the specified format. This approach allows for the creation of a new dimension that can be used across various reports and analyses within the model, maintaining the integrity of the original dimensions.

In SAP Analytics Cloud, a data model must contain at least "Dimensions" and "Measures" to be functional. Dimensions are the qualitative aspects of the data (e.g., time, geography, product categories) that provide the context for analysis. Measures, on the other hand, are the quantitative data points (e.g., sales, costs, quantities) that are analyzed within the context provided by dimensions. Both are fundamental components of a data model, enabling structured data analysis and reporting.

For designing a new story in SAP Analytics Cloud where the size and position of widgets need to adjust dynamically for different devices and screen sizes, the Responsive pagetype should be used. Responsive pages automatically adapt to the screen size of the device they are viewed on, providing an optimal viewing experience across desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

In a live model within SAP Analytics Cloud, dimensions can be organized into logical categories using either level-based hierarchies or parent-child hierarchies. Level-based hierarchies are used when the relationships between items are defined by distinct levels, such as Geography might be divided into Country, State, and City levels. Parent-child hierarchies, on the other hand, are useful when the data's hierarchy is not strictly defined by levels but by a parent relationship where a child member is associated with a parent member, which is common in organizational structures or product categories.

To display differences between measures in a chart within SAP Analytics Cloud, you can use the Variance feature. Variance helps to highlight the differences or gaps between two data points or measures, making it easier to identify trends, outliers, or areas requiring attention in visual representations like charts.

SAP Analytics Cloud supports two primary types of data connections: Live Data Connection and Import Data Connection. Live Data Connection establishes a direct link to the data source, allowing real-time data access without replicating the data into SAP Analytics Cloud. This is ideal for scenarios where up-to-the-minute data is crucial, and data volume is large. On the other hand, Import Data Connection involves copying data from the source into SAP Analytics Cloud, which is suitable for scenarios where data doesn't change frequently, or there's a need for data transformation and enrichment within SAP Analytics Cloud.

Input controls in a story in SAP Analytics Cloud can be used for changing dimensions or measures displayed in a table and for filtering data on a page. Input controls provide a way for users to interactively modify the view of the data, such as selecting which dimensions or measures to display, or filtering the entire page's content based on selected criteria, enhancing the interactivity and flexibility of data analysis within stories.

In SAP Analytics Cloud, a Time Series Forecast predictive scenario can write back to a planning model. Time Series Forecasting leverages historical data to predict future values over a specified time horizon, using statistical or machine learning methods. This feature is particularly useful in planning and forecasting processes, where future values are predicted based on past trends and seasonality. The ability to write these forecasts back into a planning model allows for the integration of predictive insights into the planning process, enhancing decision-making and strategic planning.

When using a live connection in SAP Analytics Cloud, data security is defined and managed within the source system. This approach leverages the existing security protocols and permissions set up in the source system, ensuring that data governance and access controls remain consistent and are centrally managed. Users accessing data through SAP Analytics Cloud with a live connection will be subject to the same security constraints and permissions as if they were accessing the data directly from the source system. This integration ensures a unified security model, simplifying administration and ensuring data security and compliance.

To apply a styling rule only to countries in a table with a hierarchy of Country, Region, and City in SAP Analytics Cloud, you must use the "Self" level option. This option ensures that the styling rule is applied specifically to the level of the hierarchy representing countries, without affecting the styling of regions, cities, or any other hierarchical levels.

To ensure that labels are always visible on a column chart in a story, you should select the "Avoid Data Label Overlap" checkbox in the chart's settings. This option adjusts the labels' positioning to prevent overlap, making them visible at all times without the need for mouse-over interaction.

A blank planning version in SAP Analytics Cloud can be created within the Version Management feature. This area of the platform allows users to manage different versions of their data, such as budgets, forecasts, and what-if scenarios. Creating a blank version provides a clean slate for planning activities, without pre-existing data, enabling users to start fresh with their assumptions and inputs.

In an analytic data model within SAP Analytics Cloud, the automatically created dimension type that you can delete is the Generic dimension. This type of dimension is typically used for custom or ad-hoc categorizations and, unlike system-generateddimensions like Date or Version, can be modified or removed as per the specific needs of your data model and analysis requirements.
