Warning: Hana metadata installation can take much longer than SQL. Due to the in-memory nature of Hana databases, metadata can take several minutes to install for each Portal, even up to an hour or so.
Allow the system to proceed even if it looks like it's "not responding". For new installs, you can check on the progress in Hana Administration Console by selecting a count of the UDT tables from CUFD.Select the profile (marker 1 below), then assign application licenses (marker 2 below). If prompted, confirm metadata installation prompts to install version-specific metadata.
Note that metadata installation will force all B1 users to log out and log back in, so ensure this is scheduled ahead of time to avoid B1 disruptions.
Select the profile (1) and enable product licenses (2). Once the Application license is installed, a user may be configured in B1, then assigned licenses in the named user license section.
Shown here, Employee Portal, Customer Portal and Customer Portal Order Pad are licensed for version 91.4 with installed meta-data.
