Implementation Lineage

The Lineage tab provides end-to-end visibility into how data flows through the platform. When users switch from the Fields tab to the Lineage tab, IMS displays the downstream relationships associated with the selected entity.

The lineage view traces data movement across multiple processing layers. Users can expand and collapse lineage branches to understand how a table contributes to downstream reporting and analytics.

The lineage view helps answer questions such as:

  • What downstream tables use this entity?
  • Which transformations consume this data?
  • What business processes are affected if this data changes?

Implementation lineage

The implementation's lineage view, scoped to its purchased modules.

Scoped to this client

Implementation lineage reflects the client's actual purchased modules, so it can look narrower than the full specification lineage.
