Forms (ttadv3100s000)Use this session to maintain forms. A form is uniquely identified by the combination of: If you use a multilingual system, maintain your forms in one main language (see the Link to Language field) and use labels. In this way you must only translate the form descriptions, the labels and the user option descriptions, but not the form layout itself. This makes it easier to maintain your forms.
Language The language in which the form is stored. Apart from the form descriptions, the language also determines which field descriptions (labels) and menu command descriptions apply at run time. For example, if your current language is 2, the previously mentioned descriptions from language 2 are shown at run time. Your current language is specified in the User Data (ttams1100s000) session. Language The description of the language code. Package The description of the package. VRC An upgrade of a package, for example, B61. Each change in the functionality of a package results in a new version. A version can contain several releases. VRC An update in a version. For example, 'B61 a', where 'B61' represents the version code, and the 'a' represents the release code. Each update results in a new release with a new release code. VRC A code that identifies a customized software package. For example, B61O_a_cus1, where 'B61O' represents the version, 'a' represents the release, and 'cus1' represents the customer extension of the customized software. Module The description of the module. Form Link to Language The code of the main language in which you initially develop your forms. If you use a multilingual system, maintain your forms in one main language and use labels. In this way you must only translate the form descriptions, the labels and the user option descriptions, but not the form layout itself. This makes it easier to maintain your forms. Description The description of the form. You can define this description as a special field on your form. At run time this description is displayed on your form. Form Tab Desc. The description of the form that is shown at run time. Form Type The form type of the forms and the script type of the scripts (that are linked to the session) must be similar. Forms of type 1, 2, and 3 are especially used in maintain and display sessions. Forms of type 4 are especially used in print and update sessions. Occurrences The maximum number of occurrences from the main table which can be displayed on the form at the same time. In most cases this number is limited by the size of the form. This field only applies to form type 2 and 3. Horizontal If this check box is selected, records are shown below each other. If this check box is cleared, records are shown side by side. Note This field only applies to multi-occurrence forms (type 2 and 3). Step Size If the Horizontal check box is selected, the current field indicates the number of lines used by one occurrence. If the Horizontal check box is cleared, the current field indicates the number of columns used by one occurrence. Note
