Hi @mcc - A potential cause for this behavior where the Designer and Definitions tabs are missing in CI Studio may be that the SID file was not updated in metadata when the SETINIT was most recently applied.

Steps for updating the SID file in metadata can be found in the Software License Renewal Instructions for SAS 9.4 for UNIX and for Windows within the 'Update the SID File in Metadata for Applicable SAS Solutions' section.

If the SID file was not updated in metadata when your SETINIT was most recently applied, updating the SID file in metadata may resolve this issue.

If the problem persists, please open a track with SAS Technical Support, and we will be happy to help you.

To open a track with SAS Technical Support, you can:

Thanks for reply, good to know the steps to update sid file in metadata. In our case ci studio was recently installed in new env and business context was not defined yet. I was getting the message that workspaces that require business context will not be available.

After creating the business context the design and definition tabs showed up. Thanks again for advice!
