Send an execution package to the Execution Queue

Hi,

While there's no menu option, which admittedly makes this rather hard to discover, you can actually execute an execution package in the execution queue by dragging it to the Execution Queue window.

Cheers,

Aha a hidden option ;-).

Could you simply add a right click option to the execution package itself to make it more intuitive?

Yep, something like that would make it a lot less hidden. Another option could be to pop up the "Deploy and/or Execute" window (with deployment options disabled)  just like when you click Execute on a table.

Unfortunately that's not an option given the difficulty of running incremental tables in full. This is why I had to create an execution package to do this for me.

Better ways to execute an incremental table have been a long and often requested feature. I don't know why this hasn't been addressed yet.

I can see that my last post might have bee a bit unclear - my idea is simply that the "Deploy and/or Execute" window should open when you click "Execute" on an execution package, enabling you to "Send to Execution Queue". That would be consistent with how it works when you execute a single table.

But it's interesting to know the context for your initial suggestion, though I suspect running an execution package in the queue is useful in many cases.
