Definition

Actions are additional operations required in the process of non-transparent field evaluation. They are especially used to determine the offset of a component at runtime.

The different types of operation logics are distinguished by different action types.

Example

A simple evaluation rule could look like this: "For object type 'BUS2081' the component 'Fiscal year' is located at offset 10 in the non-transparent field OBJKEY. If the value in OBJKEY starts with '$$$$', the offset has to be shifted right by 4 characters."

The rule contains an offset operation ("the offset has to be shifted right by 4 characters"). Therefore an action of type 'OS' (Offset shift)has to be used.

OBJTYPE    OBJKEY    Condition    Result

BUS2081    51056020911999000001    OBJKEY starts with '$$$$'?    Fiscal year 1999 at offset 10

BUS2081    $$$$51056020911999000001    OBJKEY starts with '$$$$'?    Fiscal year 1999 at offset 14
