Creating InfoObject Catalogs

Prerequisites

Ensure that all the InfoObjects that you want to transfer into the InfoObject catalog are active.

Create and activate any InfoObjects that are not available already.

If you want to define an InfoObject catalog in the same way as an InfoSource, then the communication structure for the InfoSource has to be available and active.

Procedure

Create an InfoArea, to which you want to assign the new InfoObject catalog. This function is on the first level of the hierarchy in the Administrator Workbench under InfoObjects.

Use the right mouse button to create an InfoObject catalog in the InfoArea. If you want to make a copy of an existing InfoObject catalog, specify a reference InfoObject catalog.

Choose either Characteristic or Key Figure for the InfoObject type, and choose Create.

A list of all InfoObjects is displayed. Use the pushbuttons to filter this list according to InfoSource, ODS object, InfoCube, or InfoObject catalog.

Use the arrow buttons to transfer the InfoObjects you want to use into the InfoObject catalog.

Activate the InfoObject catalog.
