Description

Create form

Form ® Create

You create forms to define the basic structure of rows and columns for complex reports. You can use the same form in any number of reports. For detailed documentation on this function, see Creating a Form.

Change form

Form ® Change

You change a form when you want to change the structure of the reports that use that form. Any changes you make to the form affect all these reports. When deciding whether or not to change a form, observe the following:

  • If you want to change the layout for all these reports, go ahead and change the form.
  • If you do not want to change all the reports that use the form, you should create a new form. You can do this most easily by copying the existing form.

The following settings are not affected by any changes you make to the form:

  • Number formats defined in the reports which use this form (see also Number Format)
  • The row and column sort orders defined in the reports

If these reports cannot automatically adapt to the new form structure, the system displays a warning telling you so.

Check form

Form ® Check

This function checks whether you have defined all the necessary report components.

Displaying a form

Form ® Display

This function lets you display all the information pertaining to the definition of a form. If you wish to change the form from this transaction, choose the Display <-> Change button. To create a report from here, choose Environment ® Create report.
