Fields

Selecting indexes

If you don't know the exact name of an index, you can also enter masks in the fields Index 1 through Index 5 and then select the desired indexes from the displayed table.

To select indexes from a table:

1. In the Select Lists/Reports via Indexes panel, enter up to five different masks in the fields Index 1 through Index 5 respectively. Specify other selection criteria in this panel as desired.

   This will display a table containing all matching indexes.

2. Type line command S in front of up to 5 indexes, then press ENTER and then PF3.

   This will populate the fields Index 1 through Index 5 with these index names.

3. Press ENTER to submit the query.

Note on Autoselection

If the Autoselect field in the user profile (option P.3) or in the user definition (option C.1) contains Yes, choosing option 1 (BROWSE) will not display the List/Report Selection panel and choosing option I (INDEX) will not display the List/Report Selection via Indexes panel. Instead, it will carry out the selection automatically and display the List/Report Selection table.

For more information on Autoselection, see "Jobcard and auto-selection (Option P.3)" and "User profiles defined by the administrator".

For information on how Adabas Audit Data Retrieval must be called in order to process the user profiles defined under option C.1, see the corresponding section in the Adabas Audit Data Retrieval Installation and System Guide.
