Definition

Fields are placeholders for values in texts. When processing a form, at the moment the text is displayed the system determines the current values of the fields in the text and replaces each field by this value. The field notation is: &feldname&.

Within SAP Smart Forms you can use all fields from the form interface and the global data and field symbols from the global definitions as fields. You cannot use other fields, for example, fields defined in coding nodes.

In each form, you can by default use the structure SFSY with a number of system fields set by the composer, whose values you can query within the form. You can use all fields of this structure as fields as well (notation: &SFSY-...&). They ressemble the system symbols of SAPscript.

You can use several options to determine the formatting of the value of a field. For a detailed description of these options, see the Smart Forms online documentation.

Note

Fields in SAP Smart Forms ressemble program symbols in SAPscript. The standard symbols and text symbols used in SAPscript no longer exist in Smart Forms.
