Installing Business Content Use The Install Business Content setting in the Administrator Workbench allows you to copy and activate the delivered Business Content. With this, all additional required objects, and the order in which they are to be activated, are automatically taken into consideration.


Procedure 21. In the Grouping menu option, select which additional objects of Business Content are

to be taken into consideration.

The settings are as follows:

○ Only necessary objects

Only the objects that are absolutely necessary to activate the selected objects are considered (minimum selection).

○ In the previous data flow

All objects that provide data for a collected object are collected.

○ In the next data flow

All objects that get data from a collected object are collected.

○ In the previous and next data flow

All objects that deliver and pass on data are collected.

○ Saving for system copy

You can use this setting to collect a share of the objects for a transport request. This request can be used again after a system copy.

22. Choose at least one object and insert them by dragging and dropping them into the window of the collected objects.

This step starts the collection of the additional objects.

The order and selection of the existing objects can be set up in the menu as follows:

a. InfoCubes

Listing InfoCubes and aggregates according to InfoAreas.

b. InfoObjects

Listing InfoObjects according to the InfoObject catalog and InfoAreas.

c. InfoSources

Listing the InfoSources according to master data and transaction data.

d. Object types

All objects are sorted by type (InfoArea, InfoCube, and so on).

23. For each type, use the value help to insert the selected objects in the tree.

This personal object list is saved for each user and can be reused when you start the program.

a. Objects in the SAP NetWeaver Business Intelligence (SAP NetWeaver BI) Patch

All installed SAP NetWeaver BI patches are listed and have below the objects delivered for the first time or again for that particular patch.

24. In the Install column, check the selection fields.

Business content that is installed for the first time is selected as Fixed. For currently activated objects, you can choose whether you wish to keep these objects or reinstall them. If the content version and the active version can be merged, then this is marked in the Merge column.

25. In the Install Business Content menu item, you can do the following:

○ Simulate the installation


○ Start it directly

○ Start it in the background

Since installation with a larger number of objects (especially when changing objects that are already active) can take a while, installation in the background is preferable.

When it installation is complete, you can display the log by choosing Log.
