Define Screen Layout per Activity (Vendors)

In this step you determine, depending on the transactions (display, create, change) for vendor master data, which master record fields

This specification is linked to the field status of the account group and the company code-dependent specification. By means of the link, you can see which status the fields have on the entry screen for master data. In this case, the fields take on the status which has the highest priority. Hiding a field has the highest priority, followed by a display field, a required field and then an optional field:


   Specification for field status definition


   Account group     Hide          Req.field  Req.field  Opt.field


   Transaction       Display       Display    Opt.field  Display


   Company code      Req.field     Opt.field  Opt.field  Opt.field


   Result            Hide          Display    Req.field  Display

Standard settings

A specification has been made for all transactions.

Recommendation

Control the field status via the account groups. It only makes sense to define the field status for each transaction in exceptional cases. This, for example, can be the case if the fields are to be filled when creating and are not to be changed via the change transaction. This would make sense, for example, for the Reconciliation account field.

Activities

If fields are to have an alternative status depending on the transaction, you determine the status of the fields for the required transaction.
