Which data sources are compatible with SAP list viewer with integrated data access?

The SAP list viewer with integrated data access is designed to work seamlessly with certain data sources that facilitate the display and manipulation of data. The correct choice, the external view, is a type of data source that allows for integrated data access by providing a virtual representation of underlying database objects. This means that it serves as an abstraction layer that can connect to various data providers and formats, making it suitable for a wide range of applications, particularly for reporting and analytical purposes.

External views are particularly beneficial in scenarios where data needs to be aggregated from different sources, as they can unify these sources under a single logical view. This enables users to access and analyze data without needing to interact directly with the complexities of the underlying data structures.

While other options like CDS views, database procedures, and database tables have their own functionalities and use cases, they do not provide the same level of flexibility and integration for data access as external views do within the context of the SAP list viewer. CDS views, for instance, are powerful for complex data modeling and analytics within HANA, but in this specific context, external views are more aligned with the capability needed for integrated data access.
