Answers to common questions regarding information on features of the Petroleum and Gas Measurement Cockpit
I want to copy a QuantityWare template conversion group, but it is not available in my development client. How do I proceed?
All QuantityWare BCS template conversion groups are available in one dedicated client (typically 045) in your development system – once your technical team has completed the technical installation and post-installation steps as recommended in the BCS Technical Installation Manual.
If you wish to copy a template conversion group, follow the detailed instructions described in the BCP Test Manual or BCG Test Manual.

For every SAP system, you need to install its own SAP system-specific usage key.
