Can any body explains when we have to use choice.user.1 to 9.
When it is useful and when it triggers.I read so many times but I failed to understand the concept.

Baan standard has many standard choices which are more routine in nature
onmain table and /or can be programmed generic .

However it can not provide for application logic which are user defined
and / or specific to a particular program. One standard choice continue
process already exist . However when there are more such application logic
there is need for user choices. So baan has provided upto 10 user choices
for which application logic can be written the way programmer wants.

Along with the standard options available in baan the programer can specify some special options. What the system should do when these special options are choosen is to be programmed in the choice.user.1to9 sections. When the user chooses the corresponding option, the on.choice, before.choice and the after.choice of that choice option are triggered.

To enable the special options, go to maintain forms, on that there is a button for special options.

A good example of using the user choice sections is the Maintain Program session. The buttons on the lower left of the form each have a user choice associated with them to Edit, Compile, View, Debug, ...etc. Or Maintain Session which zooms to other sessions. I hope giving this reference will help you to undersant the functionality behind the option.
