About the Export SAS Package and Import SAS Package Wizards

The Export SAS Package and Import SAS Package wizards provide a graphical user interface for performing promotions. The wizards are available in SAS Management Console, SAS Data Integration Studio, and SAS OLAP Cube Studio. You can use the wizards to promote individual metadata objects or groups of objects from one metadata server to another, or from one location to another on the same metadata server. You can also promote the physical files that are associated with the metadata.
This chapter tells how to access the wizards. It then provides an example scenario that shows how to use the wizards to export and import a package containing several types of related business intelligence objects. The chapter also provides instructions for using the advanced features of the wizards.
As you use the wizards, be sure to refer to the Promotion Tools Overview and the Reference Information for Promotion Tools. You can also refer to the product Help for SAS Management Console, SAS Data Integration Studio, or SAS OLAP Cube Studio.
