Definition

There are three ways in which a characteristic extracts texts:

  1. using the fixed values of a domain
  2. using a function module
  3. using a text view

In the case of 1.) The domain must be active in the DDIC, and have fixed values

In the case of 2.) The function module must be written specially for the characteristic

In the case of 3.) The text view must be active in the DDIC, and all compounded objects must be in the key of the view. The text fields of the view must be 'TXTSH', 'TXTMD' or 'TXTLG'. The language field for the view, if available, requires the domain 'LANG'.
