Definition

In some cases, it is advisable to scan a database field in the SELECT with a constant value.

One possibility would be to specify a selection set for the characteristic in the report. However, this could easily lead to an error if an incorrect value were used here or if the selection set were forgotten.

Instead, you can define a constant value in this field. The system would then always scan this value in the SELECT.

Important:

  1. The record in table T804C must have a filled DD table and type 3.
  2. In addition, T804C should also contain an entry without a DD table and type 3, so that the characteristic can no longer be used in a report.
  3. If the constant value is the initial value, you can enter the value SPACE in the field.
