About Bundling

Bundling is the process of grouping entities for export or import from one environment to another.

For example, you might export a set of business objects and service scripts from a development environment and import them into a QA environment for testing. The group of entities is referred to as a bundle. You create export bundles in the source environment; you create import bundles in the target environment.

Working with bundles involves the following tasks:

Configuring entities for bundling if they are not preconfigured
Creating an export bundle, which contains a list of entities to be exported from the source environment
Creating an import bundle to import those entities to the target environment
Applying the import bundle, which adds or updates the bundled entities to the target environment
