In this article we will look into the mapping document for subject area and presentation columns to the database tables and fields.
When you have a requirement to check for the database tables/fields for the corresponding presentation columns then you can refer to the attached sheet which is provided by the Oracle OTBI Product Development team with every release.
We have a thread on Oracle Cloud Customer Connect where these sheets are maintained and for next releases we can look at this post to get the latest attachment for that release.
