Automatic filter construction involves selecting application area and type of implementation from number of defined or definable ones, producing input field depending on selection

摘要

The method involves selecting an application area and a type of implementation from a number of defined or definable ones and producing an input field depending on the selection, whereby only inputs corresponding to the selection are enabled in the input field. The generation step includes determining the number of logical records corresponding to the selection made. Input fields correspond at least partly to filter components. The method involves selecting an application area (C1) for the filter from a number of defined or definable ones, selecting a type of implementation (C2) from a number of defined or definable ones and producing an input field (P) depending on the selection, whereby only inputs corresponding to the selection are enabled in the input field. The generation step includes determining the number of logical records corresponding to the selection made. Input fields correspond at least partly to filter components. An Independent claim is included for a computer program product for automatically generating a filter consisting of a number of components or elements.
