Output Order of AtttributesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Definition

The standard order that attributes are output is as follows:

  • Free text search, if defined.

  • Write-protected attributes: output with write-protected dropdown menu of attributes and operators, and write-protected assignment of values.

  • Required attributes: output with write-protected dropdown menu of attributes, editable operator, and editable input field.

  • Other attributes (up to the maximum number of attributes to output).

Note

  • The lines for free text search, for write-protected attributes, and for required attributes cannot be deleted, which is why no minus button is displayed at the end of the line. Only the last of these lines has a plus button for creating new lines.

  • Within the three blocks the attributes are sorted according to parameter DISP_INDEX and the description text of the attribute of method ADD_ATTRIBUTES. This sort order is used also for the dropdown menu of the attribute.

  • Lines with write-protected or required attributes, and attributes with free text search are always output, even if the value in parameter NR_DEFAULT_ROWS is smaller. If no value is output for this parameter, one line for each attribute is output.

  • If values for criteria to be excluded are specified, then the area of the user interface in which these selection criteria appear is displayed from the start.

  • If individual attributes are supplied with initial data, these always appear as the first line in each block regardless of DISP_INDEX.
