BW_ACTIVATE_INFOPACKAGE

Use the BW_ACTIVATE_INFOPACKAGE script element to schedule one or more InfoPackages for immediate start. The InfoPackage must not already be scheduled.

Note: If you use BW 7.x DataSources and Transformation Services (as of SAP NetWeaver 04s), you must transfer the data after loading it. Define suitable process chains in your BW system and handle them with the BW_ACTIVATE_CHAIN script element.
