View Lineage in Web Intelligence Document

[Former Member]

Hi

I was wondering what is the best way of viewing data lineage in a Web Intelligence doc.  In previous versions of BusObj you could (manually or otherwise) add source information in the Universe in the object definition and this can then be displayed when viewing a web doc.

However this doesn't seem to be the case anymore with SIS and BO4.  Is the expected workflow for a report user would be to logon to SIS and then locate the lineage information there?

thanks

Hi,

Yes you can view the lineage from Information Steward. But you can also right click on a report in BI Launch pad and select view lineage.

Hi Michael,

Can you please help with  any documentation that would let us set up the "View Lineage"on BI Launch pad like in Metadata Management on Information Steward,
