Consider a source system, SAP, with an information object, AV1. This refers to the table MARA in the
SAP_ERP physical database schema. There is a target system, Customer, with the physical database
schema EMEA.
After you import content, the object AV1 cannot be activated in the Customer system, since it still refers
to SAP_ERP schema.
AV1 in the Customer system currently refers to SAP_ERP. To be able to activate the object, you need to
modify the mapping of AV1 in the Customer system.
To do this, a mapping is created in the target system Customer between the authoring and physical
schema as follows:
Authoring Schema Physical Schema
SAP_ERP EMEA
6.1.7 Generating Time Data
For modeling a business scenario that requires time dimension, you can populate time data in the default time-
related tables present in _SYS_BI schema, for example while creating time attribute views. You can choose to
generate the time data for a given time span based on your requirements such as, calendar type and granularity.
If you model a time attribute view without generating time data, when you use data preview an empty view is
shown. Note that if you populate the data before modeling time attribute views, you can use the Value Help from
the respective time tables.
1. In the Quick Launch tab page, choose Generate Time Data.
2. If your financial year is same as that of the calendar year, that is, January to December, in the Calendar Type
dropdown, select Gregorian.

a) Enter the period for which you want to generate time data.
