Need help in assembling DAC 'Subject Area':

Question

Hi There,
When I assemble a subject area:
I got a pop up window for 'Configuration Tags' with the following message:
The tasks belonging to the following Configuration Tags may be applicable
to assembling your subject area. If you want to associate these tags,
press Cancel, otherwise press Continue.
For this message, should I say 'Continue' or 'Cancel'.
Also what happens when I say 'Continue' or 'Cancel'.?
Thanks,
Raghu

Hi, DAC Configuration Tag controls the inclusion of tasks in subject areas. Each Configuration Tag will have tasks associated for specific biapps requirement.
By Default BIAPPS OOTB Subject Areas will have Configurations tags associated and few will be in inactive state.
(Click on any DAC SubJect Area --> ConfigurationTag (in the bottom pane) to verify which Configuration Tags are associated )
1. This message is just a reminder that DAC tells you, there are few other tasks that can be included in the Subject Area and here are the Configuration Tags associated to these tasks. In case if you forget adding them hit 'Cancel', add it and then Assemble again
2. In all other cases if you don't need to add these Configuration Tags you can hit Continue to complete assembling the Subject Area
It all depends on the requirement and which tasks you need to include or exclude from specific Subject Area.
Before Assembling verify if you need to include any Configuration Tag , activate it and then hit Assemble.
Eg: In BIApps Configuration topic : To Reload the Time Dimension Tables After the Data Warehouse Is Loaded
1. To extend the Day Dimension, you should include configuration tag named *'Extend Day Dimension Multiple Calendar Support.'* which adds additional specific tasks . Then assemble the Subject Area
Hope This helps !
