Context Field Handling

HTML templates in Web transactions may contain expressions that refer to values on an SAP system screen. These values are part of the ITS context, which contains the values on the current SAP system screen, as well as system information like the current Web browser type.

When you send data to the ITS via the Web Transaction API, it data becomes part of the ITS context. To access context values, you specify the context field name in the relevant macro.

The ITS context is maintained for a single dialog step only. After each dialog step, the context is purged and all values are reset. For the next dialog step, you must make the data available again using the ITS macros.

For further information about how context fields are processed, see:
