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 (ttaad2500m000) 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

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 module code for which the form is defined. Module The description of the module. Form A screen that appears when a session is started. A form
