BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION

This script element sets selection parameters that should be used for reading the InfoPackages from the BW system. BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION does not call an SAP function, it prepares for the subsequent reading of the InfoPackages from the BW system. You can select InfoPackages in four different ways, according to long text, InfoSource, source system and data source. When you start, the selection tables of each AE job for the target system SAP BW are empty. If you use this script element several times, the selection tables are filled with values.

Note: BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION replaces the old SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION script element. You can still use the old name.
