AT SELECTION-SCREEN

Short Reference

Syntax

AT SELECTION-SCREEN selscreen_event.

Effect

This statement defines event blocks for different events selscreen_event that are triggered by the ABAP runtime environment during selection screen processing.

Selection screen events occur immediately before sending a selection screen and after certain user actions on a displayed selection screen. They assist in selection screen processing in the ABAP program.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN is triggered at least twice during actions on selection screens that are linked into another selection screen as a subscreen - first for the linked selection screen itself, and then for the linking selection screens.

Note

The event blocks after AT SELECTION-SCREEN are implemented internally as procedures. Declarative statments in these event blocks create local data.
