      Analyse within the Matrix

      The ability to select, load and assess SAP Functionality is now available in the Matrix to simplify the assessment process and to enable analysis to be carried out and extracted in a more familiar tabular format.
      Start by selecting or searching for the SAP Application Hierarchy area to be assessed:





      Once selected, the required SAP Datasets can be added into the Matrix in the usual way. Any associated properties or classifications can then be added to the Matrix in order to assess the items in more detail.




      For example, when assessing SAP Functionality - New, this could be added to the Matrix along with the Description, URL Links and SAP From Version. Any data in the Matrix can then be downloaded to Excel for further analysis if required.




      In order to tag relevant items, for example to connect to a Roadmap layer item, you can now enable a selection mode and mass update instantly.
