Define Single Screen Entry

In this step you define the confirmation profile for single screen entry of time ticket confirmations and also for reprocessing time ticket confirmations containing errors.

You can define the layout of the entry screen. When you do this, you define which input and output fields are displayed and in which order. These definitions are saved in profiles. A profile is assigned to an individual user in the user parameter CORUPROF.

Reprocessing

The reprocessing indicator defines whether the profile is to be used for single screen entry or for the reprocessing of time ticket confirmations with errors. Under one profile name, you can have a definition for each application situation.

Standard profile

With the 'Standard prof.' indicator, you can define that the profile is to be used as the standard profile. Only one profile each can be defined as the standard profile for single screen entry and reprocessing of time ticket confirmations with errors. The standard profile is then used if no profile has been assigned to the user in the user parameter CORUPROF or if the profile that has been assigned does not exist.

Area selection

In the header area you can define which data is to identify the operation to be confirmed. Here, for example, you can define whether only the confirmation number and/or order, sequence, operation can be entered.

In the detail areas, you define which information can be entered for the operation to be confirmed and in which order the fields in question are displayed. You can select up to seven detail areas, each containing one group of possible entry fields. Note that every input and output field can only be issued once. When you save, the system automatically checks whether this rule has been adhered to. To carry out this check beforehand, choose the pushbutton Check area selection.

Titles can be assigned to the detail areas, which are reproduced on the pushbuttons above the corresponding area. You can use these pushbuttons to open and close the areas. This means that the number of fields on the screen can be kept to a minimum. With the "Closed" indicator you define that the area is to be closed when the function is first called up.

You can display a preview of the individual area and also of the entire entry screen. To do this, choose the corresponding pushbutton (Header area preview, Detail area preview, List screen preview )

Defaults

You define whether a partial confirmation, final confirmation or a final confirmation with posting of open reservations is to be proposed.
You can define the time of default determination for quantities and/or activities:
For default determination
For both the activities and forecast values, you can define 6 texts that are displayed during confirmation entry. These texts are overwritten with the texts from the standard value key in the work center after you have chosen ENTER. If you want to prevent this from happening, set the indicator "Fix text". You can hide activities or forecast values for which you do not want to enter a confirmation by setting the indicator "Hidden".

Maintain language-dependent texts

The texts entered for the pushbuttons in the detail areas, as well as for the activities and forecast values, are saved in the logon language. If you want to process the texts in several languages, use the IMG activity " Maintain Language-Dependent Texts".

Profile assignment

The confirmation profile assigned to a user depends on the application and the CORUPROF parameter entry in the user parameters:

A profile is used that agress with the CORUPROF parameter entry and in which the Postprocessing indicator has not been set.
A profile is used that agress with the CORUPROF parameter entry and in which the Postprocessing indicator has been set.

If the user has not been assigned a confirmation profile in the CORUPROF user parameter or the assigend profile does not exist, then the standard profile for the application is used. If there is not a standard profile, a firmly defined user interface is presented.

Activities

1. Define the confirmation profile.
2. Display the preview of each profile and check the profiles.
3. Enter the texts for the profile in other languages, if necessary (IMG activity Maintain Language-Dependent Texts).
4. In the user parameter CORUPROF, assign confirmation profiles to the individual users.

Further Notes

For the detail areas, there are also 3 screens available whose layout you can define yourself. The definitions required for this are made via the user exit CONFPP07.
