    These step don't have to be in order except the ones that are dependent upon each other. It is also not necessary to do all the steps. Example: BI steps are a little bit different. Regardless, these are very good and detailed instructions.

    hi, i had trouble deleting the TemSe data after running the consistency check. The system short dumped with a time out. Then someone said to do this in the background, which I tried (As per SAP help need to run the consistency check either in SP12 or by report RSTS0020

    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fc/04ca3bb6f8c21de10000000a114084/content.htm

    Once the objects are identified the report RSTS0030 has to be executed in SE38 with the options) and that did not produce the expected results.

    Well, I needed to plow through this system refresh of BW (from prod) and now I am runnning BDLS without first deleting the TemSe data. Will thisbe an issue? PLEASE HELP, I am worried and concerned and stressed and all of those BAD things!.

    Thanks in advance.
