Hi,

Please login to PFCG and find the SAP roles related to admin. From the SAP role description copy a role suitable to your profile (roles like Data Admin, Profile Admin) etc are there. Check which one is applicable to you and copy into customised one. Check for transactions RSSM, RSA1 (BW 3.5) etc and RSECADMIN,RSRT etc related transactions in B>I>7 and along with the auth objects already mentioned. Please let me know if any issue.

Hi,

The BW Administrator is responsible for customizing and maintaining a BW

system. All the authorizations a user requires to execute the Customizing and

maintenance transactions are incorporated into this role.

You can customise and use the SAP standard role SAP_BW_ADMINISTRATOR_BW or SAP NetWeaver BI Administrator role SAP_BW_BI_ADMINISTRATOR.

for more details refer to the following links.
