Maintenance view dialog

Dear all,
I've created a Maintenance View Dialog from se54 based on a transparent table that has been specifically defined in FR language while my connection language is EN.
The table contain two specific fields for which specific data elements have been defined as well.
After having generated the Maintenance View Dialog, the two specific fields are named as '+' in SM31.
I've tried to change the field label of the data element (medium, heading) but it does not change at all.
Would anyone of you have an idea on how to change the field's name in SM31 of my two specifically defined data element?
Regards.

Hello,
I think u have not translated the text of the dataelement into FR.
Do it in SE63 and check.
If useful reward.

Dialog on Maintenance View

hi all,
i created a maintenance view and i'm coding the dialog programming underneath it. i'm new to dialog programming. please give me some advise on how to populate a field B (description) after the user enter the field A (id), and how to embed the search help function within dialog.
thanks in advance,
Peerasit

Hi,
To populate the field B descriotion after giving the field A as entry you have to write a select statement such that according to the ID that you are giving it will give you the description.
And make sure you give the name of your I/P text field as <tablename-field name> so that the select statement that i am showing will work
In the PBO of the screen wheere your ID is present you can write the type of select statement that i have shown you.
Trigger the below logic when you click Show or Next any pushbutton action.
DATA : G_ID TYPE Ztable-ID,
SELECT SINGLE Description
FROM ZTABLE INTO (ZTABLE-Description)
WHERE ID = G_ID.
Coming to your search help i am assuming that you know to create the search help. Create the search help for the field that you want to display in the screen.
Suppose for ID field you want to display in this case double click in the layout designing screen on ID I/O field opens a window in that Attributes select Dict tab and there you can see one input text field with search help give the search help name that you have created in Se11. That will be create the search for the field without any coding.
Cheers!!

How to create a variant to a maintenance view (trans: SM31)

Hi gurus.
I have created a maintenance view (called z_jest). By running it from SM31 there is a variant option. However, I am not able to create the variant which I want to filter a selection upon in this transaction.
I have even looked into transaction SE54 and created a variant for the maintenance table view there( called z_jestv). Then going back to transaction SM31 and view z_jest, i push 'Variant' radiobutton and type as variant: 'z_jestv', I only get the message: "Variant z_jestv for object z_jest does not exist".
Can anybody please advice on how to create and/or connect the variant to the maintenance view?
Regards LL.

Hi Mahalakshmi
Thanks for reply.
When I look into the procedure, there is a prerequisite: "The basis dialog for which the maintenance variant is created already exists."
I am a little bit unsertain if I miss this 'Basic dialog'. Can you please advice on how to check / create this 'basic dialog' before I go on to create the variant. (I need this 'basic dialog' as input in the procedure you sent.)
(Note: I have already created a 'maintenance dialog' for the view, but I have a feeling, that is something different...)

Aotu numbering in table maintenance view

Hi experts,
Can anybody help me in auto genereating serial number in table maintenance view. I have created table maintanance view for a z table for which first field is serial no. The requirement is this serial number should be auto genereted. increment by 1. I have writeen the code for the same in PAI event, but it getting incremented by number of rows. e.g for secind row counter is incremented by +2. for thrid row it is +3 and so on....
plz help to achieve consistency .
Thnks n regards,
Ashmita Singh

What happens if the user deletes a recird from the table?
Suhas,
Happy New Year
Disable delete function and provide a deletion indicator. This should be fine right.
The problem would be when the maintenance dialog is regenerated.
@OP - So as suggesgted use events.
Similar threads were discussed before many times. May be you culd search it once.

Expand/Collapse feature in table maintenance view

Hello experts,
We have created a custom table and maintenace view. For some table rows, the only key value difference is an EFFECTIVE DATE. The generated table maintenace dialog by default "Collapses" the rows that only differ by Effective Date. Using the Expand <-> Collapse button, we can see the missing detail for individual rows.
Can the maintenace dialog be expanded by default?

Maintenance view program for a table

Hi All,
How can i create a maintenance view program for a table. i did maintenance view in sm30 for that table. now it needs a transaction code for maintenance. can somebody help me with this.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi
Create a new transaction Z**** linked to SM30 for that table:
- trx SE93: while creating trx choose transaction with parameter and insert these data:
- TRANSACTION = SM30
- set the flag SKIP INITIAL SCREEN
At the end of screen, section Default Value, if you want to open dialog for updating:
NAME OF SCREEN FIELD VALUE
VIEWNAME <here insert the table name>
UPDATE X
...for displaying:
NAME OF SCREEN FIELD VALUE
VIEWNAME <here insert the table name>
SHOW X
Max

Maintenance view subset P = S in combination with a non-key.

We are trying to create a maintenance view with subset selection based
on a non-key field. However no dialog screen will be created in order to
select the right data (subset) for list display. We found a referenced
note of this problem: sap note nr 624459 "subset field is not
transferred" which is already available in the L7D system.
-> Does the subset P = S only work in combination with a key field?

Hi,
I presume the P = S works for only Primary Key combinations. For eg: If you create maintenance view on MARD table and give values P= S to say only MATNR and WERKS fields. You generate the Table Maintenance. You get the filter for Material and Plant but there is a button F7 new selection .. if you press that you can select the third key field Storage Location as well. Presumably it works for the key fields alone.

Maintenance View & Viewcluster & Check Table

Hi all,
I created a Viewcluster which includes three Maintenance Views. As you know after running the Viewcluster and when you enter a value to a field, the program checks the value according to the check table.
In my example for REVUS field check table is USR02. So whenever I enter a value to REVUS, it checks USR02 table, and it gives an error if I enter incorrect value. The question is if enter just space (blank), it accepts is - it doesn't give error. What is the situation here? How can I prevent to enter blank value to REVUS.
Thanks in advance.

Narendran,
Yes, this solves the problem. When I did like that it gives this error : Message no. 00 055 (Make an entry in all required fields).
I found another solution too. I'd like to share with you.
In the Maintenance View, we can define a Selection Condition for REVUS field. It should be like that Operator: NE Comparative Value: <blank>. So when we do this the Clusterview doesn't allow to enter blank value and gives this error: Message no. SV 033 (Specify the key within the work area)
It seems that second solution is better because if I choose the first solution when I need to change or modify the maintenance dialog I think I will need to change the screen again.
Thanks,

Table maintenance view - tcode

Hi experts,
We have a tcode (already in production) created for table maintenace view of z-table.
Everything is working fine.
Now I added one new field to the z-table and changed the table maintenance view accordingly. In SM30 I can maintain the table without difficulties - the new field is visible and maintenable. However, when I call the transaction code created for this view, it doesn't have the new field yet. I tried a lot but without success to update the tcode accordingly.
How can I get the tcode adjusted with the new field?
Thanks for your advise and help in advance!
Your feedback will be << appreciated >>.
Regards,
Sally

It's about one week you asked the question, but I answer in case you didn't understand what happened:
First, screens 1000-1010 can't be used in a table maintenance dialog (an error is mentioned by SAP when you try to use these numbers). So, I really don't understand how you can get 1000 in your table view!
So, I think that your transaction is linked to a custom program (not the SM30 view). So you just need to adapt manually the custom program. Note: maybe the program is a partial copy of the SM30 function group, so maybe you may just copy the dynpro 1000 of the SM30 function group to the dynpro 1001 of your custom program...
Note: when you want to create a transaction which is linked to a table maintenance view (SM30), you must define a Z* transaction of type parameter, with reference to SM30 transaction, select "skip initial screen", do not choose any dynpro, and choose VIEWNAME = your view and UPDATE = X as parameter values.

Table Maintenance & View Clusters

Hi,
I am trying to generate table maintenance views and group them using a view cluster. The following is what I have done so far.
I created 2 tables. TAB_A is the primary table with TAB_B the description by language table. They are not linked to each other in any way (even though they probably should).
TAB_A - FLD_A (key, char2)
              FLD_B (date)
              FLD_C (time)
              FLD_D (fltp16)
TAB_B - FLD_E (key, char2, same type as FLD_A)
              FLD_F (key, char3, language field)
              FLD_G (char50)
              FLD_H (date)
              FLD_I (time)
              FLD_J (fltp16)
I then created 2 maintenance views based on the tables above.
VIEW_A - FLD_A
          FLD_B (hidden)
          FLD_C (hidden)
          FLD_D (hidden)
VIEW_B - FLD_E
          FLD_F (hidden)
          FLD_G
          FLD_H (hidden)
          FLD_I (hidden)
          FLD_J (hidden)
I've then used the table maintenance generator to create the screens as well as the unique events to populate the hidden fields.
Using SE54, I've created a view cluster. I have added both of my views to the view cluster as follows:
View/table       TAB_A          TAB_B
Predecess.       TAB_A          TAB_B
Dep              R              R
Pos              1              2
Start            true
I have clicked the field-dependence button and generated the dependencies successfully.
So far everything is okay.
I now need to change the hierarchy in the cluster, so that TAB_B is dependent on TAB_A.
What I have tried so far is to add a foriegn key to TAB_B (this worked but is not an ideal solution).
I also changed the dependency type in the cluster to 'S' (only worked in conjunction with FK)
The documentation indicates that what I am trying to do is possible, but I'm not sure how.
So do any of you bright people out there have any ideas?
Be gentle I'm new to both the forum and SAP in general (hence being given table maintenance).
Kind regards
Chris

In my experience, cluster maintenance view Table 1 keys where always used as foreign keys in Table 2. Then these common fields were used in dependencies and subset.
- Creation of maintenance view on table 1
- Then generation of maintenance dialog on Table 1
- Creation of maintenance view on table 2 defining the keys of Table 1 as subset fields (test the dialog, a popup should appear with the subset fields)
- Then generation of maintenance dialog on Table 2
- Creation of the cluster generating the dependency between Table 1 and itself (without specifying any field) and between Table 1 and table 2 using the subset fields (should work automatically)
Look also at [Create a View Cluster|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/d0/999249b2aa11d1a5700000e82deaaa/frameset.htm]

Table Maintenance View Generator - 46C to 60 compatibility

Table Maintenance View Generator - 46C to 60 compatibility
I think SAP changed the way it generated its View Maintenance Screens some time after release 46C such that view maintenance dialogs in 46C are maintainable in subsequent releases but that view dialogs created in subsequent releases are not compatible in 46C. This is my hypothesis.
Can someone confirm? Is there a way to revert 60 code to the way the dialog was generated in 46C?
The error in the transport log from a 60 system to a 46C system is:
"Field '<VIM_TOTAL_STRUC>' is unknown. It is neither in one of the specified"

Hi April,
You can use standard program RSWBO052 to change the package. Enter the object and mark the checkbox -> Execute -> Place the cursor in the object -> Right click mouse -> Reassign -> Enter new package -> Save.
or you can go to transaction SE80 -> Select Package -> Enter &TMP -> Hit Enter -> Find your object -> put the cursor and right click -> Other functions -> Object Directory Entry -> Change -> Change the package -> Save.
Hope this will help.

Get db view of maintenance view

Hi. I am quite new to ABAP and i have to create a program that will replace some SPRO customizing. The idea is that for Time sheet customizing, the user will update the tables without transport, directly in productive system.
Now, because i do not want to do everything from scrach, i want to use some of the views provided by SAP standard to be used in my program for update / delete / insert, but the problem is that those views are maintenance views (Exemple : V_TCATX_LEVE2TYP ).
Can i find the database view linked to this maintenance view ?
Thank you,
Cristian.

There is not a database view linked to a maintenance view, the maintenance view are programmatically interpreted and not maintained at database level.
So go to SE11 and create a database view (if possible) or program the join/select in your program.
Proposal
- Copy the view(s) as Z-view and generate new maintenance dialogs without transport
- Try to call FM like VIEW_GET_DATA or VIEW_MAINTENANCE_NO_DIALOG to get and update the data disabling the transport
- Fully develop a new program
Regards

Adding functions to customers maintenance views (customizing)

Dear experts,
I've just been asked the following question that I don't have an answer to (I actually would expect it to be "No" but I want to cross-check it with you experts):
Thinking of the generated maintenance views as they are used hundredfold in SPRO/customizing: Do you know any way to add a dialog function (button) to those standard dialogs? For example to provide a shortcut to one of our own customizing dialogs that are meant to enhance the SAP standard customizing (let's say the settings for house bank accounts). To make it even more unlikely to get a positive answer: the solution should not require any kind of manual work at the customers side other than performing a regular import of a transport (or at least not much more than that). It shouldn't be necessary to do any programming on user-exits, et cetera.
Thanks in advance
Andreas

Hi Yadesh,
to be more precise: take the generated view V_T012 for house bank settings.
Next to the standard functions such as "Toggle Display/Change", "New Entries", etc. I would like to have a button with which I could call up an own program for the maintenance of customizing settings that enhance the house bank settings.
regards
Andreas

Maintenance View Validations

I have a custom table for which I am maintaining a Maintenance View.
I want to provide some validations and checks on the fields entered by the user in that maintenance view.
For example, if the user enters a value greater than 1000 in quantity field, I want to display a message saying that " enter only values below 1000". This is part of customer requirement.
Can I provide validations on fields in Maintenance view and if yes, then how ?
Thanks,
Urmila

Hi this may help u.
Maintenance views offer easy ways to maintain complex application objects.
Data distributed on several tables often forms a logical unit, for example an application object, for the user. You want to be able to display, modify and create the data of such an application object together. Normally the user is not interested in the technical implementation of the application object, that is in the distribution of the data on several tables.
A maintenance view permits you to maintain the data of an application object together. The data is automatically distributed in the underlying database tables. The maintenance status determines which accesses to the data of the underlying tables are possible with the maintenance view.
All the tables in a maintenance view must be linked with foreign keys, that is the join conditions for maintenance views are always derived from the foreign key (see Foreign Key Relationship and Join Condition). You cannot directly enter the join conditions as for database views.
There are some restrictions for the attributes of the foreign keys with which the tables in a maintenance view can be linked (see Restrictions for Maintenance and Help Views).
A standardized table maintenance transaction is provided (SM30), permitting you to maintain the data from the base tables of a maintenance view together.
Maintenance mechanisms, like screens and processing programs, must be created from the view definition with the transaction Generate Table View (SE54). This makes it possible to create easy-to-use maintenance interfaces in a simple manner.
You can find out how to create such maintenance mechanisms in the documentation BC - Generate Table Maintenance Dialog.
Creating Maintenance Views
Procedure
Enter an explanatory short text in the field Short text.
You can for example find the view at a later time using this short text.
Enter the primary table of the view under Tables in the Tables/Join conditions tab page.
Only those tables that are linked with the primary table (indirectly) with a foreign key can be included in the maintenance view.
If required, include more tables in the view. In a maintenance view you can only insert tables that are linked to one another with foreign keys.
Place the cursor on the primary table and choose Relationships. All existing foreign key relationships of the primary table are displayed. Select the required foreign key and choose Copy. The secondary table used in such a foreign key is included in the view. The join conditions derived from the foreign keys (see Foreign Key Relationship and Join Condition) are displayed.
You can also insert tables that are linked by foreign key with one of the secondary tables that was already inserted. To do this, place the cursor on the secondary table and choose Relationships. Then proceed as described above.
For maintenance and help views, there are certain restrictions on the foreign keys with which the tables can be included in the view (see Restrictions for Maintenance and Help Views). The foreign keys violating these conditions are displayed at the end of the list under the header Relationships with unsuitable cardinality.
On the View fields tab page, select the fields that you want to copy to the view.
Choose Table fields. All the tables contained in the view are displayed in a dialog box. Select a table. The fields of the table are now displayed in a dialog box. You can copy fields by selecting them in the first column and choosing Copy.
All key fields of the primary table must be included in a maintenance view. In addition, all key fields of secondary tables that are not involved in the foreign key (that is, which are not linked via a join condition to a key field already included in the view) must be included in the view.
This ensures that the records inserted with a maintenance view can be written correctly in the tables contained in the view.
On the Selection conditions tab page, you can (optionally) formulate restrictions for the data records that can be displayed with the view (see Maintaining Selection Conditions for Views).
The selection conditions define the data records that can be selected with the view.
In the Maintenance status tab page, define the maintenance status of the view.
The maintenance status defines how you can access the view data with the standard maintenance transaction (SM30).
Choose .
At activation, a log is written; it can be displayed with Utilities ® Activation log. If errors or warnings occurring when the view was activated, the activation log is automatically displayed.
Go to Transaction SE54 with Environment ® Tab.maint.generator.
From the view definition you can generate maintenance modules and maintenance interfaces that distribute the data entered with the view to the base tables of the view. You can find more information in Creating a Maintenance Dialog.
Other Options
Recording documentation: You can create information about using the view with Goto ® Documentation. This documentation is output for example when you print the view.
Changing the data element of a view field: Select column Mod (modification) for the view field. The Data element field is now ready for input. You can enter a data element that refers to the same domain as the data element of the assigned table field here. Cancel the Mod flag if you want to use the data element of the assigned table field again.
Enter the delivery class of the view: In the Maintenance status tab page, select the delivery class of the maintenance view. If you assign the delivery class G or E to the view, you must also maintain a customer namespace (key block) for the view entries. To navigate to the appropriate maintenance transaction, choose Define Customer Namespace.
Entering the maintenance attributes of the view field: In the View fields tab page you can define the Maintenance Attributes of the view field in column F.
Check functions: With Extras ® Runtime object ® Check you can determine whether the definition of the view in the ABAP Dictionary maintenance screen is identical to the definitions in the runtime object of the view. With Extras ® Runtime object ® Display you can display the runtime object of the view.
table maintai9nenece generator
The Table Maintenance Generator is used to create table maintenance program to add, modify or delete records in the database table. This can be accessed using transaction SE54 or in SE11 using the menu Utilities->Table Maintenance Generator.
Table maintenance allows you to create entries for that table
Follow these steps to generate table maintenance
1) Go to SE11 and check table maintanance check box under attributes tab.
2) Go to menu Utilities -> Table Maintanance Generator ->
Create function group and assign it under function group input box. You can enter same as table name for function group. Also assign authorization group default &NC& .
3) Select standard recording routine radio in table table mainitainence generator to move table contents to quality and production by assigning it to request.
4) Select maintenance type as single step.
5) Maintainence screen as system generated numbers this dialog box appears when you click on create button.
6) Save and activate table.
