 Program to Activate the Transformation & DTP

Overview
In SAP BI we have the choice of using various activation programs which are available as function modules,
programs or BAPI’s to activate inactive multiproviders, info-cubes, info-sets, transfer rules, etc. But for a long
time everyone felt the need of having a program for activating the Transformations and DTP’s which are not
provided as a standard from SAP.
This article provides the code to achieve the same and also a step by step guide to create a Z-program using
transaction SE38.

Code
Code to Activate Transformation:
