4.1.2 SAP HANA Delivery Unit Naming Conventions
In SAP HANA, conventions and guidelines exist for the naming of delivery units (DU). The delivery unit is the
vehicle that lifecycle management (LCM) uses to ship one or more software components from SAP (or a partner)
to a customer. The DU is also the container you use to transport application content in your system landscape.
If you are creating a delivery unit, you must adhere to the following naming conventions
● The name of a delivery unit must contain only capital letters (A-Z), digits (0-9), and underscores (_)
● You cannot use an underscore (_) as the first character of a delivery-unit name.
Note: The naming conventions for packages in a delivery unit differ from the naming conventions that
apply to the delivery unit itself. For example, the maximum length of a package name is not restricted to
30 characters; it must be less than 190 characters (including the namespace hierarchy).
4.1.3 Creating a Delivery Unit
A delivery unit is a group of transportable objects used for content delivery. You can use a delivery unit to
transport the design-time objects that are stored in the SAP HANA repository between two systems, for example,
from a development system to a consolidation system.
In the SAP HANA studio, you can create a delivery unit in the Quick Launch view of the Modeler perspective :
Note: You cannot create a delivery unit unless you have already defined the delivery unit's vendor ID; the
vendor ID defines the namespace in which the new delivery unit resides.
To create a new delivery unit, perform the following steps:
1. In the SAP HANA studio, start the Modeler perspective.
2. In the Setup screen area of the Quick Launch tab, choose Delivery Units....
3. Create a new delivery unit.
In the Delivery Units dialog, choose Create...
4. Maintain delivery unit details.

a) Enter a name for the new delivery unit.
The delivery unit Name is mandatory.
b) Fill in the other information as required:
Note the following points when entering information:
○ The name of the Vendor is set to the vendor ID that is specified in the system configuration, for
example, acme.com.
○ The Responsible text box enables you to specify the name of the person responsible for managing the
delivery unit.
