In grouping tab we have 4 options...

Only necessary Objects : Collects only the necessary objects needed for activationData Flow before : Collects all the objects under the Current object. In our case, Our object is Cube.. all the underlying objects like Datasource, Transformations, All infoobjects needed for this will be activatedData Flow Afterwards : Collects all the objects coming above, our case... Multi providers, Queries....Dataflow Before and Afterwards : All the objects above and below will be collected...

In Install tab we have 4 options..Simulate Installation : To check for possible errors while activation.Install : Installation of the selected objects in foregroundInstall In Background :  Installation in BackgroundInstallation And Transport : Install and Transport Object to next System ( Production, Quality)

Select grouping as Data flow before and after... and click on install

Now we can see all the objects Before and after are grouped under our cube ...

Green Light indicates that it is activated and ready to use..

Our multiprovider,cube and query needed is activated and ready to use...so we don't want to create any of the objects for this requirement... pull data using infopackage and dtp.... and report using our query...
