On the Assign Quota page, specify the number of Capacity Units to allocate to the SAP Datasphere, Data Composer instance within this solution.
Note that this quota is not enforced. When the usage approaches the limit, the user defined as the system owner (see below) will be notified by an email. You can use the data composer even if you exceed the assigned capacity units. Billing is always based on actual data composer usage, not the indicated quota.

Click “View in Resources” to see the tenant within the indicated resource group.
In the Resources tab, the status of the solution is “Processing” and will change to “Ready” once the provisioning is complete
Once the tenant is ready, you will be able to access the tenant from the link under the ‘Resource’ tab and under the tenant details
Under ‘Customer Landscape’, you can see the system details of the new tenant. Also, the system integration is visually presented, making it easier to understand and navigate through your system landscape
As a next step, you will have to add the tenant to the ‘Formation’, that you have created already and added your BDC tenant to it
Navigate to me.sap.com > Products & portfolio > Business Data Cloud > Customer Landscape > Formation
Choose the correct Formation and then click on ‘Include System’ and choose the Databricks tenant to include in the formation, and save the changes
