Documentation

Definition

The flag N:M describes the relationship between the View/Tab. and its Predecessors in terms of the number of possible referred records involved (predecessor records).
Mark this field if there can be several (referred) predecessor records for one (dependent) object record.

Notes:

• The flag affects hierarchical operations (copy, delete, retrieve and transport).
• If the flag is set even when there is only exactly one referred record for each object record, it has no functional consequences; but it affects the performance of the hierarchical operations negatively.
• This flag is never set for a header entry.
