Before you begin
Note: In Sterling Warehouse Management System:
Business Intelligence, Release 8.5, changes have been made to the
Analytics Data Model in order to support Multischema onboarding. Therefore,
if you have extended the Analytics Data Model in versions earlier
to 8.5, it may not be compatible with the current version of the Analytics
Data Model Release 8.5 or Release 9.1 or Release 9.3. Thus, after
upgrading, you must redo the extension of the Analytics Data Model.
