In each operation and sub-operation, you write a textual description of the individual work step to be performed.

You can describe operations on the overview screen or on one of the detail screens. The header data screen contains an operation template for orders that contain only a single operation.

The following types of text are available for description purposes:

• Short text

Each operation contains a line of short text. This is the first line of text of the operation description, which can be extended using the long text. In many cases, this line of short text is sufficient to describe the work to be performed.

The short text for each operation is ready for input:

• In the operation overview
• On the detail screen for internal or external processing

• Long text

In some cases, you will need to provide a detailed description for operations that are complicated or that require particular caution. You can do this using the long text editor.

• Standard text

Certain operations and sub-operations will occur repeatedly in the same form in orders. It is therefore advisable to use a standard text for them. The use of these standard texts helps you to reduce recording time.
