Lines 3 , 4 : The symbol of symbol type Symbol with symbol name GESTRIDENT references identifiers.

Line 3 : The system selects all identifiers type NAM and category TRIV.

Line 4 : The system selects all identifiers type NAM and category CC.

Line 6 : The symbol of symbol type Symbol and expansion category GPC + C define that the system outputs the phrase code for a phrase-related characteristic. In the example, the phrase codes refer to characteristic Hazard symbol (symbol name G1023001SY) of characteristic category Labeling (symbol name SAP_EHS_1023_001). The asterisk * in symbol <01G1023001SY (C; * )> denotes that the system is to output all phrase codes in the characteristic record of the characteristic.

A repeating group type master (M, SAP_EHS_1023_001) is defined around symbol G1023001SY in case several characteristic records exist for the substance characteristic category Labeling. The asterisk * (M,SAP_EHS_1023_001; * ) denotes that the system is to output all characteristic records.

The repeating group is defined by the control objects start of repeating group BRG001 and end of repeating group ERG001 as well as by the definition of the group as a master (M,SAP_EHS_1023_001; * ).

The system searches in substance characteristic category SAP_EHS_1023_001. It outputs all characteristic values allocated to characteristic G1023001S as phrase code. / Therefore, for substance characteristic category with the key SAP_EHS_1023_001, the system searches in all characteristic records for all characteristics with the value G1023001SY and outputs them as phrase code.

All repeating groups terminate with "end of repeating group (ERGnnn)". All control objects are automatically assigned a serial number.
