Create an SAP HANA Tenant Database and an SAP HANA XS Classic Application

In your subaccount in the SAP BTP cockpit, you create a database on an SAP HANA tenant database system.

1. In the SAP BTP cockpit, navigate to a subaccount. For more information, see Navigate in the Cockpit.

2. Choose SAP HANA / SAP ASE > Databases & Schemas in the navigation area.

   All databases available in the selected account are listed with their ID, type, version, and related database system.

   Tip: To view the details of a database, for example, its state and the number of existing bindings, select a database in the list and click the link on its name. On the overview of the database, you can perform further actions, for example, delete the database.

3. From the Databases & Schemas page, choose New.

4. Enter the required data:

   Property	Value	Description
   Database ID	Example: tutorial	HANA database ID
   Database System	Example: mdc1 (HANAMDC)	An SAP HANA tenant database system. mdc1mdc1 corresponds to the database system on which you create the database.
   SYSTEM User Password		The password for the SYSTEM user of the database. The SYSTEM user is a preconfigured database superuser with irrevocable system privileges, such as the ability to create other database users, access system tables, and so on. A database-specific SYSTEM user exists in every database of a tenant database system.

5. Choose Create.

6. The Events page shows the progress of the database creation. Wait until the tenant database is in state Started.

7. (Optional) To view the details of the new database, choose Overview in the navigation area and select the database in the list. Verify that the status STARTED is displayed.

Create a new database user in the SAP HANA cockpit and assign the user the required permissions for working with the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench.

You’ll perform all subsequent activities with this new user.

You’ve specified a password for the SYSTEM user when you created an SAP HANA tenant database. You now use the SYSTEM user to log on to SAP HANA cockpit and create your own database administration user.

Caution: You should not use the SYSTEM user for day-to-day activities. Instead, use this user to create dedicated database users for administrative tasks and to assign privileges to these users.

1. To log on to the SAP HANA cockpit, in the navigation area of the SAP BTP cockpit, choose SAP HANA / SAP ASE > Databases & Schemas.

All databases available in the selected account are listed with their ID, type, version, and related database system.

> **Tip:** To view the details of a database, for example, its state and the number of existing bindings, select a database in the list and click the link on its name. On the overview of the database, you can perform further actions, for example, delete the database.

2. Select the relevant SAP HANA tenant database in the list.

3. In the overview that is shown in the lower part of the screen, open the SAP HANA cockpit link under Development Tools.

4. Provide the following details:

   Enter Username: SYSTEM

   Enter Password: Enter the password you determined for the SYSTEM user.

   You’re informed that you do not have the roles that you need to open the SAP HANA cockpit.

5. Choose OK.

   You receive a confirmation that the required roles are assigned to you automatically.

6. Choose Continue.

   You’re now logged on to the SAP HANA cockpit.

7. Open the Security tool of the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench.

8. Expand the Security node.

9. Open the context menu for the Users node and choose New User.

10. On the User tab, provide a name for the new user.

The user name always appears in upper case letters.

11. In the Authentication section, make sure the Password checkbox is selected and enter a password.

> The password must start with a letter and only contain uppercase and lowercase letters ('a' - 'z', 'A' - 'Z'), and numbers ('0' - '9').

12. To create the database user, in the menu bar choose Save.

The new database user is displayed as a new node under the **Users** node.

13. To assign your user the roles with the required permissions for working with the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench, go to the Granted Roles section and choose + (Add).

14. Type ide in the search field and select all roles in the result list.

15. Choose OK.

    The roles are added on the Granted Roles tab.

16. To assign the CONTENT_ADMIN role to the user, repeat the steps in the Granted Roles section, searching for CONTENT_ADMIN.

For more information about the `CONTENT_ADMIN` role, see [Predefined Database Roles](http://help.sap.com/saphelp_hanaplatform/helpdata/en/de/421861bb571014846288086be76719/content.htm).

17. Save your changes.

18. Before you continue to work with the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench, you log out first and log on again with your new database user.

> **Caution:** At this point, you're still logged on with the SYSTEM user. You can only use your new database user to work with the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench by logging out from the SAP HANA cockpit first. Otherwise, you would automatically log in to the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench with the SYSTEM user instead of your new database user.

> Therefore, choose the **Logout** button before you continue to work with the SAP HANA Web-based Development Workbench, where you need to log on again with the new database user.
