Definition

This field decides how required fields of the database table are transferred to the text routine. There are two possible options:

Indicator is not checked off: transfer by parameters

  • If a maximum of five table fields only are required to read the field texts, you can enter the field names directly. Only the fields entered are known to the text routine.

Indicator is checked off: transfer by structure

  • If more than five table fields are required, the information must be transferred via a table structure. This structure must be defined in the field Transfer structure. The edit program fills the structure with the values of all the relevant fields and then calls up the text routine. The fields relevant for the text routine can be defined as follows:
    • Check off the field Field for text routine in table T804C.
    • Check off the field T800D-TINPUT in table T800D (this is only relevant for the FI-GLX and CO applications).
