In SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition there is no option to create a new business catalog using the Business Catalogs app.

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

The purpose of the Business Catalogs app is to display the business catalogs.

It's not possible to create Business Catalogs in S/4HANA Cloud, only in context of Developer Extensibility.

There is no option to create new Business Catalogs. 

As of SAP S/4HANA Public Cloud 2502, the new feature "IAM apps of the app authorization variant type" is available.

With this, the activation/deactivation of IAM apps of type "app authorization variants" in a business role is now possible based on assigned business catalogs. The assignment of individual IAM apps of type "app authorization variants" directly to business roles is available.
