Documentation

Definition

Designates that a condition field is a required field. During searches for key combinations, this has the following effect:

• 'X'    The condition field must be contained in the key combination.
• ' '    The field can be contained in the key combination. Each key combination has to contain at least one of the condition fields that are not designated as required.

Condition fields that are designated as required appear as required entry fields on the selection screen.

Use

Dependencies

There is no point in using this characteristic in combination with the grouping flag. Therefore the system ignores this characteristic for fields of a group field.
