Restrictions for Field Objects

Use

The Restrictions function only applies to field objects .

Example Example

The Address record type field (ANSSA) in the Addresses infotype (P0006).

The Pay scale type field (TAFAR) from table WPBP (Work center/Basic pay).

End of the example.

You can use this function to select records from the input data stream to be exported by the Interface Toolbox. The selection criterion is the field object with the predetermined restrictions. You can use your default values to define the restrictions referring to the content of the selected field object. Only the data records whose field object matches that in the Restrictions function will be exported from the input data stream.

Example Example

You only want to select the main address from the ANSSA (address type) field in the Addresses infotype (P0006). You do not need the other address types.

To do this, enter 1 for address in the Restrictions for "P0006-ANSSA" dialog box and copy the entry.

The Interface Toolbox only exports the input records for the data stream that have 1 (main address) in the ANSSA field. Data records with other addresses are not exported.

End of the example.
