Documentation
Definition
The system usually displays error messages when you make incorrect entries. All fields in the same chain are reset to the input mode.
The single screen of certain infotypes, such as 'Basic Pay' (0008), contain loop structures.
You cannot combine the fields inside and outside of the loop to a chain so that all fields are reset to the input mode following an error.
The system therefore displays an 'S' message on the subsequent screen
You can terminate flow logic processing with the 'Leave Screen' command.
The 'Please save your entry' message (W200) is also displayed as an 'S' message.
Please also read the online help on 'PSYST-NSELC'.
