Because characteristics and key figures are different types of objects, we organize them within their own separate folders, which are called InfoObject Catalogs.Like InfoCubes, InfoObject Catalogs are listed under InfoAreas.
Having created an InfoArea in Section 2.1, let's now create InfoObject Catalogs to hold characteristics and key figures.
