Information about developing Workflow material master

[Mark Pyc]

G'day Timo,

I think in the latest releases you can perform field level binding,
but if your in an older release you may need to use programmed
binding. This basically involves plugging in a function module to do
the tricky bits of binding for you. I know in the older releases the
link from the binding screen to the programmed binding was less than
obvious - under right mouse click maybe??

If you can't find what I'm talking about, tell us the release and
someone will be able to point you in the right direction.

Have fun,
Mark
