Using Advanced Selection 

Use

This function describes how you can use an advanced selection in a mobile client application. An advanced selection is a predefined SQL statement based on an available set of criteria that is more detailed and more flexible than the standard search function.

 

Prerequisites

·        Your system administrator has set up the necessary search criteria in the Mobile System Maintenance application. For more information, see Advanced Selection.

·        You have navigated to the Advanced Selection tile set.

 

When you choose the Advanced pushbutton in the Business Partners/Search tile set you are taken to the Advanced Selection tile set.

 

Activities

       1.      Select the search criteria (indicated by the grey paper symbol) on the Available Criteria tile, and then enter the values for the criteria on the Input Field tile. If you enter more than one criterion, the system will search for records fulfilling any one or more of these criteria.

       2.      Choose either Accept or Reject.

¡        If you choose Accept, the criterion appears on the Selected Criteria tile.

¡        If you choose Reject, the criterion is removed from the Input field tile and the existing criteria are adapted.

·         You can choose Info to view information about the selected criterion.

·         To make changes to a criterion, select the criterion on the Selected Criteria tile, and make the changes on the Input Field tile.

You can restrict the result set to a given maximum number of returns by using the Return Top field.

       3.      Choose Search.

The system displays a result list that fulfills your search criteria. For example, if you have searched for all the campaigns for the business partner "Becker" then the result list will contain a list of the campaigns for "Becker".
