Hi,

a)The Project System logical database (PSJ) forms the basis for reporting in the information system.

b)You can make the following settings in the database profile:

1.The objects and data which are to be read from the database.

Example: WBS elements, archived projects, networks, materials, capacity requirements for activities,

costs and financial data

2.The project view in which the data is displayed.

Example: Organized according to project structure or cost center

c)No further data can be selected from the database via the project view. You use this to specify how the

data is to be displayed in the information system.

d)You maintain the standard database profile settings in Customizing.

e)You can temporarily change the database profile settings on the initial screen of the information system.

f)In reporting, you cannot select further objects from the database. You define the scope of your selection

(and the objects made available to reporting) on the appropriate initial screens.

Hi,

You can define Database in SPRO

Project System > Information System > Define Database Selection Profiles (Tcode OPTX)

Near "Define Database Selection Profiles" click on img activity documentation.This will explain about Database Selection Profile.
