Use this template to change the definition of a Visual Warehouse program for use by a specific business view. This template is required for each business view that uses the Visual Warehouse program.
Before using this template, you must define the base definition of the Visual Warehouse program in VWPProgramTemplate.tag (see page "VWPProgramTemplate.tag"). This template defines the relationship to the base Visual Warehouse program definition (VWPProgramTemplate.tag) as well as to the business view that uses the Visual Warehouse program.
