Definition

Parameter ID used to determine the default values for a field in the user master record.

Use

Depending on the definition given for a field, it may be possible to replace the parameter ID by a value entered by the user.

When designing the screen layout with the Screen Painter, the field must be assigned an appropriate attribute. The advantage of this procedure for the user is that he or she no longer has to specially enter a field value on the screen.

Example

If the user only has the authorization for company code 001, the system automatically enters the value 001 in the fields that display the company code.

Please note the following input conventions:

char

All characters (apart from those mentioned below) stand for themselves, with no distinction made between upper and lower case. Upper and lower case are distinguished in text fields, such as short descriptions.

*

denotes any character string.

+

denotes exactly one character.

<>

denotes negation (applies if the specified character string does not match).

$

tests for a blank field (entering <>$ means that the system searches for all fields containing at least one character).

>

greater than.

<

less than.

&

logical AND (intersection), followed by the next character string without blanks.

or/

logical OR (union), followed by the next character string without blanks.

Priority starts at the top, i.e. & is evaluated before , but after *.
