Order of Installing the content

Question

Hi Friends,
           In a new BW implementation project what is the order we need to follow in installing the stuff from the business content?? I need to know which we need to install first (like Infoareas/Infoobjects/..) and what is the grouping we need to follow??
thanks alot ,

Set the Collection mode "Start Manual Collection".
In Grouping Select "Data flow before".
You have to drag the infocube and push it right window.
Click the Gather the Objects (it will look like "Execute" Button).
Select Install at Background.
By this you will get all the infoobjects,transfer rules and infsources.(I doubt whether you will get the ODS.If the update rules of infocube is based on ODS then you have to collect it separately.The problem is you don't know which is the ODS for a cube.You can get it from Meta Data Repository.)
You can set the source system (Yellow Button next "CTO") by which your source system assignments will be over.
With this you will be able to do the Extraction.
For Queries and Workbooks you have to select "Data Flow after" in the grouping.
Look at the infocube and find any gaps are there and you can add those keyfigures and characteristics.
The flow is like this
Infoobjects
Infosources
Update Rule
ODS
Infocube
Query
Workbook
But often you don't know which infoobjects belongs to which cube so it is better to select "Data Flow before" if you want to load the cube and "Data Flow After" if you want the Queries.
If you want everything Select "Data Flow after and Before".
At the time of installing the content it is better to select "Install at background".
