Installing Business Content
DataSources 
Use
You can use this function to transfer and activate DataSources delivered within Business Content, and, if necessary Partner DataSources delivered in their own namespaces. After doing so, you can extract and transfer data from all activated DataSources, replicated in BW in all connected BW systems.
Activities
The Install DataSources from Business Content screen displays the DataSources in an overview tree according to the application components assigned to you.
...
1. Select the nodes in the application component hierarchy for which you want to transfer DataSources into the active version. Do so by positioning the cursor on the node and choosing Highlight Subtree.
The DataSources and sub-trees underneath are selected.
2. Choose Highlight Delta.
DataSources for which the system detected differences between the active and the delivered version (from extractor changes for example) are highlighted in yellow.
3. To analyze the differences between active and delivered versions of a particular DataSource, select the DataSource and choose Version Comparison. The application log contains further information regarding the version comparison.
4. To transfer a DataSource from the delivery version into the active version, select it in the overview tree using the button Highlight Subtree and choose Transfer DataSources.
The error log appears if an error occurs.
Regardless of whether data has been successfully transferred into the active version or not, you can also call up the log via Display Log.
With a metadata upload, that is when replicating DataSources in BW, the active version of the DataSource is made known in BW.
When activating Business Content DataSources, the system overwrites the active customer version with the SAP version.
You can only search for DataSources or other nodes in expanded nodes.
Information about how you can change the transferred DataSources can be found under Editing DataSources and Application Components.
