Event

Description

TOP-OF-PAGE

[DURING LINE-SELECTION]
It is used to write constants in the header of a page. The header remains fixed against scrolling.

If used without [DURING LINE-SELECTION], TOP-OF-PAGE is triggered as soon the list is created else it loads during particular line selection.

END-OF-PAGEIt is used to write constants in the header of a page. It appears at the end of a page and is generally used to print page number.

It only works in case of LINE-COUNT is defined (will be explained via example).

AT LINE-SELECTIONIt is triggered whenever a line of a list is double clicked. The main purpose of this event is in Interactive report where on click of a line item creates details lists.
AT USER-COMMANDIt is triggered whenever a custom button is clicked on UI.
AT PFIt is triggered whenever a function key is pressed on a keyboard.
SET USER-COMMANDIt can be used to auto trigger a button key by setting an fcode to the USER-COMMAND. These fcodes are predefined and you can find them here.
