This blog refers to a deprecated feature as of C4C release 2211. The replacement functionality is explained in this post: Moving Analytical content via Transport Management

Hi all:

Here, I am faced with the question on how to move my reports, data source, dashboard, KPI etc. to my QA tenant or production tenant. And I find the answer in ChristianDykstra’s question posted by Trivedhi Devavarapu. (At the end I shared the link)
Then I followed these steps to achieve my goal and help consultants who need the information along the way.
Let’s do it and as I always like to say: souls at work …
For the begening I separete the blog in few steps:

1. How you can access to the function Upload/Daownload from C4C
2. What kind objects that can be uploaded or downloaded.
3. Example of how can you download and Upload from the test tenat to other tenant (in this case QA).
4. Some tips important
5. Useful links

1. How you can access to the function Upload/Daownload from C4

You can access this function from the two way and the recomendation is to use the second opction (Transfer Analytical Content).

• Workcenter Administartor –> Commun Task–> Upload/Download (1, 2, 3)

• Workcenter Business Analitics –> Commun Task and go to Transfer Analytical Content (4,5, 6)

2. What kind objects that can be uploaded or downloaded

The following table provides an overview of objects that can be uploaded or downloaded. This table is taked from the document SAP Cloud for Customer Analitycs Guide feb2020. You can acces to the link! 🙂

3. Example of how can you download and Upload from the test tenat to other tenant (in this case QA).

Download an Object

Note that the system only creates one file for each object type.

Upload an Object

In this part I explain how you can upload objects that you have created from a external source to your system. Before the begining I show the Tenant A with the report downloaded and the target tenant B withou the report. Then, I put the steps to upload the resport.

Steps to upload the report

1. Choose the Upload screen. (1, 2, 3)

2. Click Upload Object. (4)

3. Select the file that contains the object and any related objects to be uploaded. (5)

4. To save the objects and make them available in the system, click Save. (6)

   The object and any related objects are available in the system. You can view the objects in the corresponding work center views.

Then you will see the report on the target system. The report is not assigned but at this point you can check it and assign it where appropriate 🙂

4. Some important tips

– To transfering analytical content for custom reports, you can also transfer the following content built on standard reports:

• Custom report views (starting with Z) built on standard reports and reports built in the Cloud Applications Studio

• Custom report views (starting with Z) built in the Cloud Applications Studio

• Personalizations for reports (such as, Add Fields, Report Default)

• Personalizations for report views (such as, column width, key figure color).

• Selections

• Navigations

– You cannot upload or download extension fields created by customers and partners. Ensure that the extension fields created by customers are available in the target system before uploading analytical objects.

– When you upload or download an object, related objects you have created are also downloaded or uploaded. That is, objects used to create the object in question or objects that are built using the object in question.
