Work with enquiry program search fields (GDMD14401)

This panel displays the search fields that have been set up for the selected enquiry program in your system. You can add, change or delete records.

Normally the search fields are created automatically when new enquiry programs are added to this program, which means you do not need to enter search fields manually on this panel. In the Enquiry program search field control table you define which search field should automatically be created.

For example:

If the enquiry program name is Area table, two search fields are created – AREA and TABLE. These search fields are automatically displayed on this panel, if you add a new enquiry program to Work with enquiry programs and if the Build search fields field for type 01 in the Enquiry program field control table is set to YES.

The search fields are used in the Enquiry program selection program to easily find one or several enquiry programs.

Note: You should try to restrict the number of search fields, because the fewer search fields you have in the system, the faster the search will be done when you enter a search text in the Enquiry program selection program.
