Documentation

Definition

Contains the position of a subarea on the area page.

Use

Use this field to position the subareas on the area page from top to bottom by assigning numbers to them. The subarea with the lowest number appears in the top position.

The system determines the positions of the subareas by sorting the numbers. Therefore, using the numbers 1, 2, and 3 has the same effect as using the numbers 10, 20, and 30. SAP recommends you use numbers with blank intervals (such as 10, 20, and 30). This way you can later insert another subarea at any position without renumbering the other areas. You can use numbers from 1 to 999.

If you do not enter a position number for a table entry, the relevant subarea will not appear on the screen.
