A pageable map is a map that contains multiple occurrences of a set of map fields. Each occurrence of the multiply-occurring set is called a detail occurrence.
A pageable map can contain more detail occurrences than can fit on the user's screen at one time. The runtime system stores detail occurrences in the order in which they are created by pageable map commands, and divides them into pages, based on the number of occurrences that can fit on the screen. One page of occurrences can be displayed on the screen at a time.
An example of a pageable map is one that displays information about a department and lists all the employees within the department. The set of map fields related to employee information occurs once for each employee to be listed. These detail occurrences of employee information are created at run time by pageable map commands and can be displayed to the user one page at a time.
