You can modify the text in the Filter field. Generic entries are accepted, and the search is case sensitive.
    1. If you choose the Search function, all phrases in the R/3 System that correspond to your search criteria are listed in the dialog box. If no phrases are found, you must change the search criteria.

Layout of generated report:

Relative density: 0,9 g/cm3

Temperature: 20°C <

To ensure that the temperature "20°C <" is output correctly as "<20°C", you must reverse the sequence of symbols on the report template (after you have inserted the symbols using Wizard). However, in Wizard, the sequence may not be changed. If you change the sequence, a new line (or table column, see below) is created for each phrase so that the temperature is separated from its accuracy.

Instead, you can set the phrase indicator for the symbol with the incorrect syntax, and change the phrase after you have exited Wizard.
