13   Metadata Report

The Metadata Report helps you to export OFSAA metadata into Excel Sheet. This feature helps to get a view of OFSAA metadata and its dependencies. It is a template-based approach where you create templates and select Metadata Objects that must be extracted. The extraction process is supported only for Excel sheets. While defining the template, you are expected to have prior knowledge of the OFSAA Metadata objects that are relevant from this application point of view.

Prerequisites

The following executions must be performed before using the Metadata Report utility:

1.     Before executing MDB Publish and Data Elements Wrapper Batch, ensure the following:

a.     Tablespace Requirement:

i.       Ensure that the USERS tablespace have a minimum of 150 GB available

ii.     Ensure that the TEMP tablespace is a minimum of 45 GB available

b.     Execute the following Gather Stat command for the mentioned tables:

BEGIN

DBMS_STATS.GATHER_TABLE_STATS(USER, 'TABLE_NAME');

END;

iii.   Atomic Schema:

Create and Export Metadata Report Templates for XML and Excel

Perform the following steps to create and export the Metadata Report Templates:

9.     Navigate to Common Tasks à Metadata Report.

Figure 131: Metadata Report

Description of Metadata Report page follows This illustration helps to create and export the Metadata Report Templates.

10.  Click Add icon, in the Summary screen, to create a new Metadata Report Template.

Figure 132: Metadata Report

Description of Metadata Report page follows This illustration helps to add icon, in the Summary screen.

11.  Provide the Name and Description for the new template on the Template Definition page.

Figure 133: Metadata Selection

Description of Metadata Selection page follows This illustration displays the Name and Description for the new template on the Template Definition page.

12.  Select the desired object from the Object Type drop-down to be exported.

13.  The individual report generates only the basic properties of the object selected, that is, name and description. The relational report generates detailed information up to the Entities level if Dependencies is chosen, and up to the Staging Columns level, if Data Lineage is selected along with Dependencies.

14.  Dependencies: The metadata object is dependent on several other metadata objects. Metadata object is also used (that is, consumed) in several other metadata objects. Dependency or usage tree can be of any depth. For example, a rule can be dependent on a hierarchy, business processor, and dataset. Further, each of these metadata objects can be dependent on other metadata objects. Metadata Export Utility exports all the dependent or used metadata objects for all paths in the dependency or usage tree if this option is selected.

15.  Lineage: Data is loaded from source systems to staging and then moved across to processing/reporting. Lineage traces the data element as it moves across different layers of OFSAA: staging, processing, and reporting. Metadata Export Utility exports the lineage of each of the reporting area data element that is identified by dependencies.

16.  For Individual Report: In the Export Options, do not select Dependencies or Data Lineage.

Figure 134: Metadata Selection

Description of Metadata Selection page follows This illustration displays the Select Metadata Values.

17.  The exported sample report for Individual is as follows:

Figure 135: Exported Sample Report

Description of Exported Sample report page follows This illustration displays the exported sample report for Individual

18.  For Relational Report: In the Export Options, select Dependencies.

Figure 136: Template Definition

Description of Template Definition page follows This illustration displays Template Definition page.

19.  The exported sample report for Relational is as follows:

Figure 137: Exported Sample Report

Description of Exported Sample report page follows This illustration displays the exported sample report for Relational.

20.  The first sheet shows the different Paths and their Dependencies up to the Entities level. Select the required Path sheet at the bottom to view the dependencies.

Each path tells how the dependency/usage is derived from dashboard to entity or vice versa involving various OFSAA object types like Derived Entity, Hierarchies, Datasets, Measures, and so on.

21.  These paths are generated by the system using data already published in MDB dependency tables as part of the OFSAA MDB object publish.

22.  For every dependent object type displayed in each path sheet, the following columns appear:

    Object type name

    Object type description

    One of many Object-specific properties (optional)

23.  For example, In Path1, Dashboard is the first Object type, the dependencies generated are Dashboard Name, Dashboard Description, and Dashboard properties: Dashboard Country, Dashboard Regulator, and so on. Similarly, Report is the next Object type in Path1 and the dependencies generated are Report Name, Report Description, Views Name, Views Description, View Display Format, and so on. It continues followed by Hierarchy Objects name, description, and properties up to the Entities level.

Figure 138: Exported Sample Report
