IDT - Different Schemas in different environments for same tables used in a Universe
Hi,
I have a Universe in Development where I have tables pointed to a schema (DW) in DEV but in TEST/INT I have the same tables under a different schema (TESTDW). So when I promote the Universe & reports from DEV to TEST, I will be getting errors as the schema is incorrect. So we need to find a way so that we can define the schema globally instead of having it at the individual table.
I know we can repoint the schemas, etc but i need to avoid extra work in other environments.
Known Solutions: Promote the reports to TEST, then select all the tables & change the schema by Right Clicking the selected tables and selecting Change Qualifier/Owner.
One of the reasons, I don't want to follow this route, because I have lot of derived tables which I need to change it manually by editing the SQL Statement, If I add new tables or columns again in future & promote them to TEST, then again I have to change the schema.
Did anyone faced this kind of issue?Is there any other way that we can use like Begin_Sql , etc?
(FYI, I am using BO4.0 SP5)
Thanks.

Since you are dealing with many derived tables, you need to perform this activity manually. Mostly I deal with SAP BW almost way back I have worked on DW back end.
