Documentation

Definition

If you activate this attribute, it is possible to enter a '*' as the first character.

Field input is then transported starting from the second character, in accordance with the conversion specifications determined by the field format. The first * is not transported. By entering a '*', you start a module that is defined in the screen flow logic as follows:

FIELD ... MODULE ... ON *-INPUT.

This attribute was previously often used to implement possible entries, but you should now consider whether this is really justified.
