Using the Start Broadcaster command (LAUNCH_BROADCASTER), you can call the BEx Broadcaster. The current variable assignment and navigational state are passed to the Broadcaster. Depending on the parameterization, the Broadcaster is started with the object (such as the query or report) to be distributed. If nothing else is defined, the standard Web template for broadcasting (0BROADCASTING_TEMPLATE70) that is set in Customizing, is called.
You can specify your own standard Web template for broadcasting in Customizing with the following path: SAP Customizing Implementation Guide → SAP NetWeaver → SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse → Reporting-Relevant Settings → Settings for Information Broadcasting →Set Standard Web Templates.
