You are guided through the process of creating a DataStore object (advanced) by a wizard.
Procedure
- You are in the BW Modeling tools. In the context menu for your BW project, choose New DataStore Object.
- Select an InfoArea. To ensure that you can find your DataStore object again without difficulty, we recommend setting the Add to Favorites flag.
- Enter a technical name and a description. The technical name can be between three and nine characters long. If you have a namespace for the DataStore object (advanced), the name can only be eight characters long.
- You can select an object template. This can be useful if you want to replace existing objects - such as DataStore objects (classic) and InfoCubes - with DataStore objects (advanced).
- You can select a template for the data warehousing layer. More information: Templates for Modeling the Data Warehousing Layers
- When you have finished making your settings, choose Finish. The editor appears.
