How-to: Bring your own data warehouse to Microsoft Dynamics 365 for Operations

Apparently, entities have to be published per company (legal entity). Is this the case? If so, is there a work-around to publish multi-company entities?

Data entities in "D365 Operation" are global in their behavior and one can access data across companies using them.

Hi Could anyone explain me - why only staging tables (as it can be seen on the last picture of this article) are present in the BYOD database? I was expecting to see tables with structure "Target table" there, but it's not the case. Thank you!
