Transaction Data
The transaction data is usually transferred automatically from other applications (see Types of Data Transfer ). However, you can enter transaction data manually. Individual record entry is possible, or several at once using a layout.
You can find a description of individual record entry in Entering Transaction Data in Individual Records .
You can configure the screen structure for multiple-object data entry as you wish. You must define a data entry layout in Customizing before you enter any values. For more information, see Maintaining a Data Entry Layout .
The procedure of a data entry session is described in Entering Data with Layouts .
