What does SAP LeanIX recommend you do before you start the initial data upload into SAP Lean|X?

Question

Options

• AExport data out of SAP LeanIX intan Excel spreadsheet.
• BRun an SAP LeanIx survey to get data from stakeholders.
• CCreate an Excel spreadsheet from scratch and enter data manually.

• A
  9% (4)
• B
  87% (40)
• C
  4% (2)

Explanation

Running an SAP LeanIX survey before the initial data upload is the recommended approach because it lets you gather accurate, stakeholder-validated data from the people who actually own and know the applications or systems. This ensures the data you upload is reliable from day one, rather than correcting errors after the fact.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• Option A is backwards - exporting data implies you already have data inside SAP LeanIX, which contradicts the "initial upload" scenario where the system is not yet populated.
• Option C manually building a spreadsheet from scratch ignores the built-in survey capability that SAP LeanIX provides, and risks producing inaccurate data without stakeholder input.

Memory tip: Think "survey first, upload second." The survey is your data-gathering net - you cast it out to stakeholders to collect the facts, then load what you catch into LeanIX. Skipping the survey is like uploading guesses.
