Comments

This script element does not call an SAP function. It just 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. Using this script element several times has the effect that the selection tables are filled with values.

The lower and upper limits refer to the chosen selection table. For example, when you have specified "TXTLONG", these parameters select the long text of the available InfoPackages. For specifying lower and upper limits, you can use the wildcards "*" and "?". "*" stands for any and "?" stand for exactly one character. An upper limit is only usefull when  BT" or "NB" are specified as a selection option.

An upper limit, an indicator for the selection, a selection option and a processing mode are optional parameters for this script element.

The script element SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION has been renamed to BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION in version 3.0 but you can still use its old name.

Examples

The following example selects all InfoPackages that include the long text "Land*", excepted are those that include the the InfoSource name "0COUNTRY".

BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION SELNAME="TEXTLONG",OPTION="CP",LOW="Land*"
BW_SET_INFOPACKAGE_SELECTION SELNAME="INFOSOURCE",LOW="0COUNTRY",SIGN=E
