This context applies to all situations that do not belong to any screen processing. In ABAP programs, this includes the following processing blocks:
· The program constructor LOAD-OF-PROGRAM
· PBO modules (PBO of screens)
· The selection screen event AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT (PBO of a selection screen)
· The reporting events INITIALIZATION, START-OF-SELECTION, GET, and END-OF-SELECTION
· The list events TOP-OF-PAGE and END-OF-PAGE
All other processing blocks are associated with screen processing (reacting to user input).
In order to make the following table more concise, the above mentioned processing blocks are structured into two groups.
Group 1: LOAD-OF-PROGRAM, PBO module of screens, AT SELECTION-SCREEN OUTPUT
Group 2: Reporting- and list events (INITIALIZATION, START-OF-SELECTION, GET, END-OF-SELECTION, TOP-OF-PAGE and END-OF-PAGE)
