For static modules, there are no error check performed during component analysis. For dynamic modules (such as BP setup in Admin mode access or Data Cubes as non navigational nodes in User mode access), if the user selects modules dependent on components which have not been selected, when the component analysis is performed, the system displays a message indicating that the dependent object have not been selected, but the permissions have been selected.
Upon a successful import, the system updates the permissions for the selected modules. If the permissions (transferred as a part of the configuration package for dynamic modules) do not have the dependent components in the destination environment, and the configuration package, then the permissions will not be imported into the destination environment, and the system displays a message; however, if the dependent components are present in the destination environment, then the system updates the permissions,when imported successfully. By default, for "creator users," the permissions will be set to the "importer user" upon the configuration package creation, and in the destination. environment.
