Dynamic text in Data elements

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Can we populate the data element text dynamically.

For eg: we have field TXT whose data element is ZTEXT and the short text that appears in the table is TEXT.

Now we want to create two other fields TXT1 and TXT2 and the text that needs to appear should be other than TEXT (could be TEXT1 & TEXT2) is it possible to do such kind of modifications..

To boil down, we want to use one data element across different fields but that text needs to be diffferent.

Thanks in Advance,

The text is inherited from the data element. While creating tables you have 2 options 'Data Elements' OR 'BUILT-IN / PREDEFINED' see the button next to SEARCH HELP button in the table - toolbar.

In such case why you want to use the Text element, you can use th BUILT-IN / PREDEFINED Types, You can direcly give the field name and type along with required texts.

Hope it will help.
