Definition

The attribute "Input" can have the following values:

  • Not possible

    The input/output field cannot be supplied with an input - that is, the screen element can only be used for outputs.

  • Possible

    The input/output field can be supplied with an input at runtime. For the remainder of the transaction, an input is not required.

  • Recommended (Optional Field)

    The input/output field should be supplied with an input at runtime. The system, of course, does not check immediately whether there has been an input. During the remainder of the transaction, however, input is necessary.

    To mark this kind of target field, the input template starts with a special character that is represented in the Screen Painter by a question mark ('?'). The question mark will be suppressed only if the field is in a table control or a step loop.

    You use the "target field", for example, if inputs cover several screens and only at a later stage are subject to a common check.

  • Required Field

    The input/output field must be supplied with an input at runtime. The system checks this property immediately, and very definitely when the event is processed (PROCESS AFTER INPUT).

    So that such a required field is marked accordingly, its input template must begin with a special character that is represented in the Screen Painter by a question mark ('?'). The question mark is suppressed only if the field is in a table control or a step loop.
