Documentation

Definition

In a matchcode ID of update type A, S, P and K, component fields can be included by defining the offset and length (with regard to the field of the original table). The offset and length may not exceed the length of the original field.

The fields marked in the corresponding matchcode object as key fields may not be used as component fields.

Remark: No component fields may be defined for transparent matchcode IDs (update type I).

If you define a field as a partial field by specifying the length and offset, you must define a suitable data element in the column Data element, i.e. the domain to which this data element refers must have the same data type and length as the partial field.
