View Package Information

On the Manage Packages page of the NoetixViews Workbench, you can view and verify the details of the legacy package or a custom package.

Viewing Legacy Package Details

After you capture the legacy customization scripts from the NoetixViews schema, the existing wnoetxu2.sql script in the NoetixViews schema will be renamed as wnoetxu2 legacy.sql and a new wnoetxu2.sql script will be automatically populated in the legacy package. When you stage a custom package to the NoetixViews schema folder, the legacy customizations along with the new customizations are also staged.

The wnoetxu2.sql script is used for running the scripts that modifies the template tables corresponding to a NoetixViews schema. When you run Stage 4, the wnoetxu2.sql script will be run and all the scripts that are available in a package to modify the template tables will be run through the wnoetxu2.sql script.
