Definition

In most cases, this field is encoded with "Number of Columns" = 0, which means the table is simply displayed. In other cases ("Number of Columns" = 1,2,3,...), this field determines how many columns the table specified in the "Permitted Table" field is to have in the SAPscript form. If you have set n columns of this table to be displayed in the SAPscript form and this field contains an "m", n x m columns are displayed in the SAPscript form.

Note the following when the number of columns = 0 and 1: In both cases, the tables can simply be displayed, with the difference being how the SAPscript form is coded in the Form Painter, and which options are available for the layout of a form. For more information on this topic, see the IMG documentation for Payroll Germany --> Statements with SAPscript --> Set Up Customer Statements --> Set Up SAPscript Form
