Mask for Commitment Items

Use

In Customizing of Funds Management Government you can define a client-dependent mask for the key (alpha numeric code) from the commitment items. The effect of the mask is that the output of the key is displayed on the screen with the defined special character in the corresponding defined mask.

Example Example

You have defined the special character “ “ and “ “ and define for the commitment items the following mask: XXX:XXX.XXX

The commitment item key 444555666 is converted and displayed according to the following mask definition: 444 : 555 . 666.

End of the example.

Caution Caution

The characters that you have defined as special characters of the mask are reserved exclusively for the mask and can no longer be used for the key of commitment items.If you use a special character when creating a commitment item, this will be “ignored” by the system and deleted from the key before you save to the database.

Example: You enter 1.23456789 as the new commitment item . According to the mask example above the character” “ is deleted when you save. The commitment item key is then, according to the mask definition, 123:456.789.

End of the caution.

Prerequisites

The output of the commitment item key is then only displayed according to a mask definition when the key character number does not go above the character number. Otherwise the commitment item key is displayed without the mask.

Example Example

In the example above ( XXX:XXX.XXX ), 9 characters for the mask definition are defined, as well the 2 special characters.

If you enter 10 characters as commitment item keys, such as 4445556667, then the mask definition is still not taken into consideration and the key is displayed as 4445556667.

End of the example.
