SAP BW Visio Shapes

I want to document a BW data model and searched for a Microsoft Visio shape, but I found nothing. So I build my own Visio shapes. At the
moment there are the following types available:

• DataSource
• Transformation
• DataStoreObject
• InfoCube
• SPO
• MultiProvider
• DTP
• InfoSource
• OpenHub
• Query

I used them in my last blogpost about Copy Queries to a new MultiProvider.

The elements have also shape-data which can be filled. For example DataSource has the following shape data:

• Name
• Source System
• Update Mode
• Loading Time

A DataTransferProcess has for example:

• Technical Name
• Extraction Mode
• Loading Time

This is a first draw and I will add some new items and shape data in the future. So if someone need a Microsoft Visio Shape for SAP NetWeaver
BW feel free to contact me.
