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
