    The fields you select come from the field catalogue you defined in Method GET_DEFINITION. The texts you can enter here are override texts for the DDIC texts. Depending on the status of texts in your back end system, and if you set the attributes of your field catalogue (in GET_DEFINITION) to use DDIC labels, the system will give the DDIC default values. Try to use the DDIC default values as it makes for easier content recognition by the user.
