Select Columns Page

Use this page in the SAP BW Register Tables wizard to specify the column metadata that you want to write to your metadata repository. You can select columns from each InfoCube that you selected in the Select InfoObjects page or from the ODS table that you selected in the SAP BW Browser page. You can select all columns in the tables or a specified combination of columns. By selecting only the columns that you want, you can reduce the time that is required to extract the InfoCube or ODS table data. You can also minimize the disk space that is required to store the data.
