BI Content - Install Roles (ACGR)

Hi BI experts,
I am currently administering security for a BI 7 system and I have a quick question regarding BI Content (Object Types).
Recently, I ran the transaction RSA1 -> BI Content -> Object Types and there is a type called "Role - ACGR".  I noticed that I can select a role and click "Install".
My question is, what does this do?  When would I need to "Install" a role in BI 7 and what would be the result if I perform this action?
Thanks!

I see.  I guess I should give a little background as to why I asked this question.  Basically, a colleague of mine was attempting to install the BI Admin Cockpit.  During the installation process, there were error messages that went something like this:
No authorization for transporting role SAP_BW_BI_ADMINISTRATOR (see long text)
Installation of Role (ACGR)
No authorization to create role SAP_BWC_BI_ADMINISTRATOR
Transferring the 1 objects from type ACGR took 0.0 seconds
We later investigated and my colleague had found the "Install" option mentioned in my opening post within transaction RSA1, which prompted me to ask this question.
Anyhow, we ended up not having to install any role manually.  We performed SU53 and I assigned a role containing the missing authorization object to his user ID and the installation proceeded smoothly.
However, as you can see it seems there was an "Installation of Role (ACGR)" which I am more interested to find out what that is actually doing.
EDIT:  Okay, looking back at the reponse I think I'm beginning to understand.  Let me know if I understand this correctly.  Let's say the role SAP_BW_BI_ADMINISTRATOR provides access to certain InfoProviders.  However, some of these InfoProviders have not been installed in the system, therefore SAP does a check and installs these missing InfoProviders.
Is my example above the correct reasoning?

  • In Portal Content admin Role "Portal content" folder is not displaying

    Hi,
          I created a user in EP and assign Only Content admin Role. But in portal content area "Portal content "folder is not displaying.
    Can someone help me the process steps to achieve it?
    Thanks,
    kundan

    It is because the user has no proper permissions  to the porta content folder.
    you should give atleast read permission to the portal content folder to the content_admin role or to the users who have content admin role.
    also make sure the end user check box is checked at the time of giving permissions.
    Otherwise give eevryone group as read permisisons to the portal content folder. then you can see the portal content folder with read permissiosn only.

  • How to create content bearing role in SAP BW/BI

    We are configuring the Integration Kit for SAP and are at a place where we can now save a Crystal Report into a SAP BI role. How do you make a role a content bearing role so you can save a report into the role?

    Hi Mike
    Please have a look at the Installation Manual for the Integrated SAP Solutions. It lists the permissions you need for the content bearing role

  • Install Roles and Features Behavior MDT 2013

    I'm setting up a Task Sequence in MDT 2013 to try out installing Windows 8.1 for the first time. We need to add .NET Framework 3.5 so I thought I'd add a Install Roles and Features step in the State Restore section to take care of that.
    When I kick off the Task Sequence, I now see a new dialog that shows the Install Roles and Features for me to choose from. Didn't I just create a step for this? Why is it showing up asking me for my choices when I already specified what I needed? I thought
    maybe I messed up adding the step in my Task Sequence but after checking, it's still there enabled. Will .NET try and install twice now?  I have never seen the new dialog before.
    After some testing I found that if I disabled the step I added, I no longer get the Install Roles and Features dialog at the beginning. Is this expected behavior or am I missing something?

    Sandy, this is known behavior when adding Roles and Features from the task sequence. Leave your TS step as is and add
    SkipRoles=YES to the customsettings.ini file.

  • Content Management Roles in SAP

    There are three Content Management Roles provided by SAP, but when we search for these roles in User Administration -> Roles,  only one Content Management role is shown up. Can anyone explain ??

    Hello,
    If u search for "Content Manager" in  the search tab under Content Administration role, u'll b able to see 3 Content Manager roles as follows:
    Content Manager with PCD Location   "pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/specialist/com.sap.km.ContentManager/com.sap.km.ContentManager"
    Content Manager with PCD Location 
    "pcd:portal_content/specialist/contentmanager/ContentManager"

  • ACCESSIBLE CONTENT ADMINISTRATION Role

    Hello,
    Can anyone tell me the difference between " Content Administration " and "Accessible Content Administration" Roles.
    Thank You
    Avik

    Accessible Content Administration
    The portal provides a set of interfaces that can be used by administrators who need to create and administrate portal content within an accessible environment.
    This accessible Portal Content Studio does not duplicate all the functionality of the Application Designer, but it does provide sufficient functionality for creating and editing selected objects, and it enables the basic flows required by the administrator.
    Content Administration
    The content administrator is responsible for all tasks that are relevant to content creation and maintenance directly in the portal.

    Hi,
    Install n Transport is option usually used to install the collected objects and automatically transfer.
    All the Business content objects r by default in the D version .
    we need to activate them to A version.
    Match/copy option , if selected will not write the objects in the datadictionary if they r already activated . this will increase performance n save time . its always recommended to use , else for the first time.

  • Problem with Business Content install in ECC5 IDES

    Hi,
    I am having tough time installing business content.
    After installing ECC5 IDES, I am trying to install Business Content in BW ( Client 800). 
    In SBIW, (under Business Content DataSources), I did Transfer Application Component Hierarchy.
    Then I transfered few DataSiurces ( 0MATERIAL_ATTR)
    Then in BW, I did "Replicate Data Sources". I see all the Datasources in "Data Source Overview"
    But When I try to install Business Conetent ( rsa1>> Business Content >> Select Object Types >> InfoObjects>> Select Objects>> Double click ), I couldn't find any InfoObjects from source system. I tried the same for InfoCubes as well..
    Am I missing anything?? I appreciate your help.
    Thanks
    Samba

    ECC will have content for 'source system' ie datasource and extractors. On your BW system you need to have the business content add on available before you can see such objects there (infoobjects, cubes).
    BW system (whether in the same IDES or another system) needs to have this BW Content add-on. It is one additional step, just having the BW system (without this addon) will not give you what you are looking for.
    BW content add-on is typically one set of transport files, installed using SAINT transaction. My guess is your system doesn't have it.

  • BI Content Install Different than Documentation

    Hi, I installed InfoCube 0PCA_C01 from Business Content and noticed that the below InfoObjects are in the InfoCube, but not in the Documentation for InfoCube 0PCA_C01.  I'm looking at recent documentation.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/ff/686a373638445ce10000009b38f842/content.htm
    Any ideas why these would be missing out of the documentation?
    0PCOMP_CODE
    0MOVE_TYPE

    I always look at the SAP Help Portal with some skepticism because sometimes it omits certain things and sometimes it's just outright incorrect. As you've seen, this is a case of ommission and they have never corrected it.
    Source --> Target
    0EC_PCA_1-S_COMP_CODE --> 0PCA_C01-0PCOMP_CODE

  • Unable to see the portal content directory in content administration role

    Hi,
      I am unable to see the portal content directory in the content administration. I am not the super administrator, i have been assigned other roles. But, I am unable to see the PCD. Please help me how this can be sorted out.
    Thanks much in advance,
    Sunitha.S

    Hi Sunita,
    Contact your systen admin people , he/she will assign the Read/Write or Full controls to content_admin_role in the system administration -> Permissions -> select portal content folder and right click the select open Permissions , There he/she has to add content_admin_role in Assigned Permissions category and under Administrator category select Full Control and select End user check box and save the changes.
    Then you can see the Portal Content and you can create /change the portal contents.
    Thanks and Regards,
