Note

The page building services use the UI2 cache to optimize performance. If data created or modified using these services is transported, the cache must be invalidated in the target system. This does not happen automatically in SAP NetWeaver 7.0 and SAP NetWeaver 7.0 Enhancement Package 1. Invalidate the cache by executing report /UI2/INVALIDATE_GLOBAL_CACHES.
