• Key Concepts: 
  Instantiation is a process in the Knowledge Warehouse (KM-KW) component of SAP that allows users to create a new instance of an existing object. This process involves copying the existing object and making changes to it, such as adding new attributes or changing the values of existing attributes. The new instance can then be used for different purposes, such as creating a new report or modifying an existing one.
  
  How to use it: 
  To instantiate an object in the Knowledge Warehouse, first select the object you want to copy from the list of available objects. Then, click on the “Instantiate” button and enter the name of the new instance. You can then make any changes you want to the object, such as adding new attributes or changing the values of existing attributes. Once you are done, click “Save” to save your changes and create the new instance.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When instantiating an object in the Knowledge Warehouse, it is important to make sure that all of the changes you make are valid and will not cause any errors when running reports or other processes. It is also important to keep track of all of your changes so that you can easily revert back to a previous version if needed.
