SAP LUMIRA Training

Contact us if you need consultation with SAP LUMIRA dashboard / visualization development.

SAP Lumira is a data visualization and story creation tool. You can connect to multiple data sources to create datasets that can be enhanced with measures, hierarchies, calculations, and customized columns. A wide range of editing tools allow you to manipulate, edit, format, and streamline your data before you start to create graphical visualizations.

In this free SAP Lumira Training you can visualize your data using a range of chart and table types. By grouping charts together on presentation style dashboards you can create a visual narrative to describe your data. SAP Lumira is installed locally and can operate on either remote or local data. The charts built on these datasets can be printed or distributed by email.
