| MicroStrategy Object Manager is a consolidated interface to manage users and their object libraries across MicroStrategy Business Intelligence applications. Object Manager makes it easy to migrate specific objects or entire projects from a development environment to separate test and production systems providing full life cycle project management for business intelligence systems. It ensures the consistency of business metadata across development, test, and production systems and provides object impact analysis. Object Manager also includes the tools listed below: Project Merge Wizard: Project Merge Wizard migrates all objects from a source project into a destination project, based on the specified object migration rules. Project merges are used to synchronize all objects in a project, such as synchronizing a testing environment with a production environment. User Merge Wizard: The User Merge Wizard combines users and their related objects, from a single project source. These objects include profile folders, group memberships, user privileges, security roles, and security filters, among others. Information from the user or group that is being merged is copied to the destination user or group. Then the user or group that is being merged is removed from the metadata and only the destination user or group remains. Packages: Object Manager can create standalone package files containing MicroStrategy metadata objects and use the package files to import these objects to other MicroStrategy projects. These package files can be used to migrate object definitions without a live connection to a source project. Repository Translation Wizard: The Repository Translation Wizard is a utility that helps you manage object translations for a MicroStrategy project. You use the Repository Translation Wizard to extract strings from MicroStrategy metadata objects and copy the strings into a translation repository. Once the data is in the translation repository, you can use a third-party translation tool to translate the strings into the required languages or you can manually translate the strings. You can then use the Repository Translation Wizard again to import the translated strings back into the metadata and update the object properties with your translations. The Repository Translation Wizard is especially useful for translating a large number of objects in a metadata at one time. Alternatively, you can translate individual objects, one at a time, using MicroStrategy Developer's functionality.
