Explanation
When you use Generate Dataflow on an Open ODS View in SAP BW/4HANA, the system automatically provisions the three objects needed to wire up a functional data pipeline from the HANA source: a Data Source (B) to expose the Open ODS View as a loadable source, a Transformation (D) to define field mappings and conversion rules between source and target, and an InfoSource (E) to act as the central distribution layer that connects the DataSource to downstream targets.
A (Data Store Object Advanced) is wrong because a DSO is a target persistence layer - it must be designed and connected manually based on your modeling requirements. C (Composite Provider) is also wrong; it is a virtual reporting object used to combine multiple InfoProviders and is not part of the auto-generated flow skeleton.
Memory tip: Think of the three auto-generated objects as the "DSI pipeline" - Data Source → Source transformation → InfoSource - the plumbing that connects your HANA table to whatever target you choose to add manually afterward.
