Identify possible use cases to lead to relevant stories..

Ensure your Lumira desktop installation is up-to-date, and your Lumira Cloud account is working

Schedule your Lumira expert team to be on-call to support product questions during workshop hours.

Familiarize with the data you will be using during the demo, and find relevant information/points that will
drive your story.

Get familiar with Lumira resources, like Lumira Expert Team and saplumira.com (see last slide).

Make available some pool laptops with Lumira installed to be used as backup if any issues cannot be

Best Practices The day

General

Keep the language simple, avoid technical wording. (platform is an exception)

Always aim to be relevant to your audience, to their business.

Encourage participants to try SAP Lumira prior to the workshop

Show Lumira live on the screen as often as possible, its better to show it rather than talk about it.

Demo

Be succinct, and focus on telling a Business Story, not on Lumira functionality

Always Pick a dataset relevant to your audience.

Bring an ipad and hand it around for others to log into their Lumira Cloud account.

Show focus on sharing and collaboration (Cloud+Mobi)

Avoid Excel-like Demo, use advanced features in your story.

Create your own script (to be shared with colleagues)

Preparation for the exercise

Ensure the attendees Lumira desktop installation is up-to-date, and their Lumira Cloud account is
working (have backup laptops available).

Bring the audience to a minimum Analytics Knowledge (Dataset, Dimension, Measure, Hierarchies, etc)

Advise your Lumira expert team to be on-call to support product questions during workshop hours.

Known Issues - to be prepared

General

Geo-References fails to match (due to special characters) Run a macro to substitute them

Datasets not ready (e.g. aggregates) Prepare the xls beforehand and provide it to partner

Data confidentiality issues Mask data with random values

Lumira does not install (freezes at start screen) - uninstall and then reinstall after deleting these files:

C:\Program Files\SAP Lumira

C:\Users\Public\sapvi

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\SAP\Lumira

C:\Users\<user>\AppData\Local\Temp\sapvi

C:\Users\<user>\.sapvi
