Configure Line Item Display

 

LINEITEM

* from Allevo version 2.7

Background: the Allevo line item display shows by default two overviews in one PopUp (see Allevo SAP manual):

·         The upper table shows the line items as the appear in SAP for the current cost element.

·         The lower table displays only those line items leading to the value shown in Allevo.

Since line and column definitions may be restrictive regarding value types, operations or credit/debit indicators, these tables may not be identical.

Displaying both lists can be quite useful for analytical purposes. Constant LINEITEM serves to configure the display of the lists:

·         If 1 is entered in column Value from of the constant, all line items stored in the SAP system are displayed.

·         If 2 is entered, only the Allevo relevant line items appear.

For any other entries or no entry, both lists are shown in the PopUp.

Note

Using constant SAT_LINEITEMS and transaction /ALLEVO/SAT_LITEMS, line items may also be provided in a satellite and are then available for offline functions as well. The restriction via LINEITEM may be used also in this function.

* from Allevo version 2.9.34

From Allevo 2.9, it is possible to switch directly from the list of line items to the appropriate details of a corresponding document (e.g. by using transaction KSB5 for display). The relevant document fields which are available for such a switch are indicated by an underscore analogous to hyperlinks.

To avoid calling the detail display for certain cost elements (e.g. for confidential employee data), a corresponding entry must be made in column Value to:

·         One or several cost element groups may be entered. If the current cost element is found in one of those groups, reference to the detail display is blocked.

·         If X is entered, the switch to the detail display is generally blocked.
