The variable IGNORED_ENTRIES_EXIST is used in association with selected entries. Selected entries are set to the flag UEBERGEHEN (skip) to exclude them from the called function.

When the called function ends, the handling of the entries flagged UEBERGEHEN depends on the value of the field IGNORED_ENTRIES_EXIST.

• 'X': Entries flagged UEBERGEHEN are reset to MARKIERT (selected). a message is output that the selected entries were not processed.
• <space>: Entries flagged UEBERGEHEN are not reset to MARKIERT (selected). no message is output that the selected entries were not processed. you must reset the flag UEBERGEHEN to MARKIERT and send an ‘entries not processed’ message yourself.
