Order Information System: Profiles In Customizing

Use

The information displayed in the process order information system as well as the layout of the information is controlled via an overall profile, which you can enter on the initial screen. The overall profile contains several subordinated single profiles.

They contain information regarding selection criteria and layout of lists.

Overall profiles

In an overall profile, you can enter the following information:

A variant which can be used to suppress selection criteria

Which objects to read from the database

Which of these objects are to be displayed in the list

Object up to which objects are to be expanded on the object overview

Single profiles for all objects

Single profiles

In a single profile, you enter parameters relevant for the object overview list (first point only) and the object detail list (all points).

You can enter the following information in a single profile:

Fields displayed (both in object overview and object detail list)

You can specify via a subprofile which fields are displayed when you call up the list.

Specifications on how the list is formatted

You can, for example, define the width of the columns, influence the grouping of the fields and determine whether the values are to be displayed as percentage rates.

Sort criteria

You can specify via a subprofile how the fields are sorted when you call up the list.

Grouping criteria

You can specify via a subprofile how the fields are grouped together when you call up the list

User filters

Via a report variant, you can store filter criteria for the objects. The corresponding object list is automatically filtered according to these criteria when you call it up.

Status filters

Objects that have a status (for example, order headers, operations, and components) can be filtered using a selection profile.
