An attribute is defined by the table and field names. The attribute corresponds to the short description in the input options for the field names.

Maintain selection criteria

Coordinate your requirements with the department responsible with regard to the sort sequence, display of new creations / deletions, choice of mode and the selection period for the individual archiving objects and then maintain these for the individual archiving objects.

  • Sort sequence

    There are two sort criteria for the sort sequence. The first is the date of the change, the second is the time of the change. You can enter default values for the sort sequence in which the individual change documents are displayed on the Display Change Documents screen as follows:

    • Ascending
      • The oldest change document is displayed at the very top of the screen and the most current change document is displayed at the bottom.
    • Descending
      • The most current change doucment is displayed at the very top of the screen and the oldest change document is displayed at the bottom.
    • No default value
      • The sort sequence is defaulted according to the setting of the application.

      The user can override the standart setting.

  • New creation / deletion

    New creations / deletions are only displayed if the pushbutton is set to Display.

    If the change documents only contain new creations / deletions, the pushbutton is defaulted as Display. In this case, the user cannot change the setting.

    If the change documents contain no new creations / deletions, the pushbutton is defaulted with Do Not Display. The user can no longer change the setting.

    If the change documents contain both new creations / deletions and normal changes, you have the following options for the default values:

    • Do not display
      • Change documents for new creations or deletions are not displayed. The user can override the standard setting.
    • Display
      • Change documents for new creations or deletions are displayed. The user can override the standard setting.
    • No default value
      • Change documents for new creations or deletions are not displayed. The user can override the standard setting.
  • Choice of session

    By your choice of session you can define how the Selection Criteria screen is presented:

    • Display in a new session
      • The Selection Criteria screen is displayed in a new mode. Prerequisite for this is that the user is authorized to use several modes. For this variation the screen from which the change documents are being displayed remains unchanged.
    • Display in the same session.
      • The Selection Criteria screen is displayed in the same session.
    • No default value
      • The Selection Criteria screen is displayed in accordance with the default setting for the application.

      The user cannot override the standard setting.

  • Selection period

    Using the selection period you can restrict the time period for which the change documents are displayed. You have the following options for the default setting:

    • No default value

There are no default values in the fields Date From and Time From and Time To and Time From. This settings means that all existing change documents are displayed. The user can change the selection period.
  • Minimum - maximum value
    • The fields Date From and Time From are defaulted with the corresponding values from the oldest change documents. The fields Date To and Time To are defaulted with the corresponding values from the most current change document. With this default setting the user can see already on the Selection Criteria screen if there are change documents for the relevant period. The user can override the default setting for the selection period.
  • Last change document
    • The fields Date From and Time From are defaulted with the corresponding data of the last change document. The fields Date To and Time To have no default settings. This setting means that only the last change document is displayed. The user can override the default setting from the selection period.
  • From date of the last change document
    • The Date From field is defaulted with the date of the last change document. There are no default values in the fields Time From, Date To and Time To. This setting means that all change documents since the date of the last change document are displayed. The user can override the default setting of the selection period.
  • Period details
    • The Date From field is defaulted in accordance with the definition in the Details on Period field. If the Include in Selection indicator is set, changing the default setting is restricted. It is no longer possible to shift the selection period to the past. If the Include in Selection indicator is not set, the user can freely override the default setting.

  • Period details
    • The Date From field is defaulted according to the definition in Period Details. If the indicator Include in Selection is set, your options for changing the default value for the selection period are restricted. You can no longer shift the selection period to the past. If the indicator Include in Selection is not set, the user can freely override the selection period.

  • Period details

    If you have selected Period Details as selection period, you can define how the Date From field is entered in the Selection Criteria screen:

    • Start before
      • A given number of periods that you can choose freely is deducted from today's date. For the periods you can choose between:
      o    Day(s),
      o    Weeks(s),
      o    Month(s) and
      o    Year(s)
      No attention is paid to public holidays or working days. See the example.
    • Start from the 1st of the period
      • The given number of periods is deducted from today's date, as described above. The system then sets the result to the 1st of the respective period. This function is available for the periods week(s), month(s) and year(s). See the example.
    • Include in the selection
      • The system already includes the Date From calculated on the basis of the Start Before and Start From 1st of Period when reading the change documents. This improves performance. The user only has limited options for changing the Date From . Only a more current date can be entered.

      Example:

      Current date = 11/08/2001

    Start Before     Period    Start From 1st    Default

            of Period    Date From

    30    Day(s)        10/09/2001

    4    Week(s)        10/11=2001

    3    Month(s)        08/08/2001

    1    Year(s)        11/08/2000

    0    Week(s)    x    11/05/2001

    4    Week(s)    x    10/08/2001

    0    Month(s)    x    11/01.2001

    3    Month(s)    x    01/08/2001

    0    Year(s)    x    01/01/2001

    1    Year(s)    x    01/01/2000
