Pull Area

Pull areas contain sets of views that provide access to the cleansed data that resides in the data mart. The views consist of Union All statements that assemble the partitioned tables into one table.

In addition, fact table views (vDataFacts) provide access to all incoming and transformed values. The views relate the most commonly used tables and, thereby, provide a standard method for accessing data.
