Editing Select List Parameters

An App variant’s Select List parameters may be edited by clicking their ‘Edit…’ buttons in the Consumer interface’s Variant screen. A Select List parameter may be modified as follows:

  • To add a new row, click ‘Add Row’ and complete the field values.
  • To modify an existing row, edit its values directly.
  • To delete an existing row, click its ‘Delete Row’ button.
  • To upload Select List values from Excel, click the ‘Browse…’ button next to the ‘Upload Excel Spreadsheet’ field. Any existing rows are overwritten with the uploaded data.
  • To paste a selection of rows copied from an Excel spreadsheet, click ‘Paste from Excel’. Any existing rows are overwritten with the pasted data.

The tables displayed for Select List parameters have the following column headings. See the Select List Parameters help topic for details.

Heading Description
FIELD An SAP object type or field name.
OP The comparison operator to use. One of EQ, GT, GE, LT, LE, BT or CP.
LO The ‘low’ comparison value.
HI The ‘high’ comparison value.
IE Enter ‘I’ to include objects or table rows that match the specification, or ‘E’ to exclude them.

The Select List component displays a maximum of five pasted or uploaded rows. If more than five rows have been uploaded or pasted, click:

  • ‘First’ to display the first five rows.
  • ‘Next’ to display the next five rows.
  • ‘Prev’ to display the previous five rows.
  • ‘Last’ to display the last five rows.

Click ‘Continue’ to save any changes and return to the Variant screen. Note that a variant’s Select List parameters may not be modified while the variant is running.

Maximum Number of Pasted or Uploaded Rows

By default, a maximum of 1000 rows may be pasted or uploaded into a Select List parameter from Excel. However, this maximum may be adjusted using a registry setting as follows:

  1. Navigate to the following registry folder on the LiveCompare server.

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Tricentis\LiveCompare\4.3\Settings

  1. Create a new DWORD Value entry named MaxPasteRows and set its value to the maximum number of rows to be pasted or uploaded. Changes to this registry setting take effect when the Tricentis LiveCompare Application Server service is restarted.
