How to put conditional coding in Task Description

[Soady, Phil]

Yes it is possible as you wished...
Enter the task long text,
Change editor mode.
 
Now You see.
 
__ ___bla______________
__ ___bla_______________
 
2 byte field and the large text area.
 
The trick is the first field is normally a format command but it can contain
Sapscript command indicator.
 
ie /:   is the sapscript command paragraph type.
 
 
so your text looks like this:
 
/: IF &A& = 'bla'
*  &CONTAINER_VAR_A&   show this field
/: ELSE
*  &CONTAINER_VAR_B&  something else displayed based on if test
/: ENDIF

Hi Rick,
 
One way to do this would be:
 
Define an attribute for the object, say WI_TEXT and set its value in the object program. Use this new attribute in your description.

I have a task and in the task DESCRIPTION text area, I want to put conditional logic. Just don't know how.
 
For instance,
If myValue = 'X'.
"Display this"
else.
"Display that"
endif.
 
Thanks
