# Maintaining table types for step-loop table functionality

To improve the usability of step-loop tables within PreBilt, table types are used to control how the table is presented within the UI. The table type functionality addresses the challenge of displaying multiple fields within a single row, particularly on mobile devices with limited screen space.

The table type displayed in PreBilt can be controlled either through configuration in transaction */TCTM/EWM\_CUST*, which manages table types at the display profile level, or in transaction */TCTM/EWM\_CFG*, where it can be maintained at logical step/field level. This configuration allows for flexible control data presentation based on the specific requirements.

**Note**

Maintaining table type at screen field level will take priority over anything set at display profile level.

### Step-Loop (SL) table

The step-loop table supports Popin functionality, which adjusts the display based on available screen space. If the screen is resized or has limited space, fields will dynamically grow "downwards" into a vertical stack, ensuring no truncation occurs.

In addition to the Step-Loop (SL) table, there are two other table types available for displaying data, each with unique characteristics:

### Full table view

This displays all rows at once, removing the need for navigation buttons like "PAGE UP" or "PAGE DOWN."

Fields in this view are read-only, so users cannot edit data.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Example**

Table type "TA" (full table) is set for transaction *INSTBI*, step INSTSB.
{% endhint %}

### Object list view

This displays data in a simplified, vertically growing list format without column headers.

Like the full table view, the object list is non-editable, for scenarios where only viewing is required.

{% hint style="info" %}
**Example**

Table type "OL" (object list) is set for transaction *INSTBI*, step INSTSB.
{% endhint %}
