C_BOWI_40 · Question #121
You create a document with data from multiple data providers. Which two tasks can you perform to include all data from all providers in the same report block?
The correct answer is A. Synchronize the data providers. B. Manually merge all dimensions. In Web Intelligence, when a document contains multiple data providers, synchronizing the providers and manually merging dimensions enables all data from all sources to appear together in a single report block.

Why each option
In Web Intelligence, when a document contains multiple data providers, synchronizing the providers and manually merging dimensions enables all data from all sources to appear together in a single report block.
Synchronizing data providers links the separate data sources so that Web Intelligence can reconcile their data within the same report block, resolving the multi-provider context conflict.
Manually merging all dimensions creates a common dimension key that bridges the data from different providers, which is required for Web Intelligence to display rows from all providers in a unified block.
'Synchronize the data providers SQL' is not a valid Web Intelligence feature or menu option; SQL-level synchronization is not exposed as a user action in WebI.
Merging only parent dimensions is insufficient because unmerged child dimensions will still prevent data from different providers from being combined in the same report block.
Concept tested: Merging dimensions across multiple data providers
