Documentation
Definition
Determines how data is arranged in a frame that the system displays in the detail screen of a linked object.
Use
Each field of a frame is created in the layout based on a data pair, which consists of the language-dependent field description (LABEL) and the corresponding value (VALUE). The frame type determines how these data pairs are displayed on the screen.
The following types exist in the standard system:
- 1: Frames with a data pair per row: LABEL-VALUE
- 2: Frames with two data pairs per row: LABEL-VALUE LABEL-VALUE
- 3: Frames with three data pairs per row: LABEL-VALUE LABEL-VALUE LABEL-VALUE
- 4: Frames with two data pairs per row, where the value of another field (unit, currency, and so on) is displayed for each data pair: LABEL-VALUE-VALUE LABEL-VALUE-VALUE
- 5: Frames with a data pair per row, where the value of another field (unit, currency, and so on) is displayed for the data pair: LABEL-VALUE-VALUE
Dependencies
Example
You defined the following settings (among others) in Customizing for Project Management in the Customizing activity Make Settings for the Linked SAP Objects in the view Fields per Frame for the object type 0WBSELEMENT:
Frame Counter Field Name Sequence
0FRAME1 10 PRTE-PDAUR 1
0FRAME1 20 PRTE-PEINH 4
0FRAME1 30 PRPS-STUFE 22
0FRAME1 40 0EMPTY 20
0FRAME3 1 PRPS-VERNR 7
0FRAME3 2 PRPS-VERNA 9
Notes:
- The table PRTE contains the dates of the project structure plan elements (WBS elements).
- The table PRPS contains master data of the WBS elements.
- 0EMPTY is a place holder made available by SAP to position empty fields in the layout.
The fields are filled in the following way in the database:
Field Name (LABEL) Description Value (VALUE)
PRTE-PDAUR Basic Date Duration 10
PRTE-PEINH Basic Date Duration Unit DAY
PRPS-STUFE WBS Element Level 5
0EMPTY Empty Field does not exist in the database
PRPS-VERNR Number of Person Responsible 00000405
PRPS-VERNA Name of Person Responsible Smith
In the frame 0FRAME1 the data pairs of the following fields are sorted and displayed according to the sequence in the table:
- PRTE-PDAUR (Basic date duration)
- PRTE-PEINH (Basic date duration unit)
- 0EMPTY (Empty row)
- PRPS-STUFE (WBS element level).
In the second frame 0FRAME3 the data pairs of the following fields are displayed:
- PRPS-VERNR (Number of person responsible)
- PRPS-VERNA (Name of person responsible)
The following is the layout for the frames 0FRAME1 and 0FRAME3 according to the settings above for the various frame types:
Type 1 (1 data pair per row):
Frame 1
Basic Date Duration 10.0
Unit DAY
' '
Level 5
The empty row is created by 0EMPTY (displayed here by ' ').
Frame 2
Number of Person Responsible 00000405
Name of Person Responsible Smith
Type 2 (2 data pairs per row):
Frame 1
Basic Date Duration 10.0 Unit DAY
' ' Level 5
The empty field in the second line is generated by 0EMPTY (displayed here by ' ').
Frame 2
Number of Person Responsible 00000405 Name of Person Responsible Smith
Type 3 (3 data pairs per row):
Frame 1
Basic Date Duration 10 Unit DAY ' '
Level 5
The empty field in row 1 (displayed here by ' ') is generated by 0EMPTY. In row 2 only one field is displayed because in this example only 4 data pairs are defined for frame 1. For this reason the items in the 2nd and 3rd fields of the 2nd row remain empty.
Frame 2
Number of Person Responsible 00000405 Name of Person Responsible Smith
The 3rd item remains empty because there are only two data pairs.
Type 4 (2 data pairs with a unit per row):
Frame 1
Basic Date Duration 10.0 DAY ' ' 5
Only the value DAY is displayed as the unit in the second field
(Unit DAY) because of the structure Label-Value-Value. The label unit is missing.
The next two items (Label-Value) remain empty, because they are filled by the third field 0EMPTY (displayed here by ' ').
Only the value of the fourth field (5) is displayed as the unit. The label level is missing.
This constellation (unit without assigned data pair) does not make sense semantically, however it serves here as an illustration of the layout.
Frame 2
Number of Person Responsible 00000405 Smith
Type 5 (1 data pair with unit per row ):
Frame 1
Basic Date Duration 10.0 DAY
5
Only the value DAY is displayed as the unit from the second field (Unit DAY) in row 1 because of the structure Label-Value-Value. The label unit is missing.
In row 2 the first two items remain empty (Label-Value), because they were filled by the third field 0EMPTY. Only the value of the fourth field (5) is displayed as the unit. The label level is missing.
This constellation (unit without assigned data pair) does not make sense semantically.
Frame 2
Number of Person Responsible 00000405 Smith
