NOTICE
List driven data fields – The next 5 fields are available for data entry associated with a
batch. The names can be overridden to suite the end user application, all fields are now
69 character long with the exception of the User ID which is 32. A pre-defined list of up
to 30 items can be configured to allow users to select input for these fields from a list
rather than type them in every time. E.g. a user might have 8 different products running
though the same process, these can be pre-configured so when starting a batch the
user can pick from a list of products. The pre-defined lists have to be enabled in the in-
dividual group screen, eg. Show *** List.
Sets of functions are available to retrieve the list index from within Maths, allowing state
based processing during user selection. See Figure 14.1, “Maths Variable Table,”
on page 272.
