Table maintenance events

Hello,
Does anyone has a code example of table maintenance events?
I have a custom table ( zitab ) , with a maintenance view in SM30. I would like to use the table maintenance events for some authorisation check before the data is displayed, then, depending on the authorisation, display what the user is authorised to see. After data input, perform validation, if errors occur, inform the user what the problem is, if not, save in tha z table.
Can this be done in sm30 or I need to write a new program?
Thank you!

Can someone please explain me why I have this short dump (before save event)?
Error analysis
    The statement
      "MOVE src TO dst"
    requires the operands "dst" and "src" to be comvertible.
    Since this statement occurs in a Unicode program, the special
    convertibility rules for Unicode programs apply. In this case, the
    following rules have been broken:
Source Code Extract
Line SourceCde
    1 ----
    2 ***INCLUDE LYTableF04 .
    3 ----
    4
    5 form before_save.
    6
    7 DATA: l_field_is_blank.
    8   DATA: BEGIN OF s_ytable.
    9           INCLUDE STRUCTURE ytable.
   10           INCLUDE STRUCTURE vimtbflags.
   11   DATA: END OF s_ytable.
   12
   13   LOOP AT total.
   14     CLEAR s_ytable.
>>>>>     MOVE total TO s_table.
   16
   17   ENDLOOP.
   18
   19 endform.
In all examples that i read on this forum this code works, I don't know why it fails for me.

How to use the table maintenance events for validating the input entries..?

Hi,
I have created a Z table with 6 fields in which all are KEY fields. All are of CHAR type. I have created the Table Maintenance Generator for the same. While maintaining the entries in the table, even though I maintain a blank entry for a field it is saving the entry. But, I don't want that way. All the fields are mandatory in my table. One should enter all the fields. Otherwise it should not allow to save the entry. So, I think it can be done using the Table Maintenance Events. can someone tell me how to use the Table Maintenance Events. and which event to use for my reuqirement and what is the logic to be written.
Or Is there any other way to solve my problem.
Please share your inputs. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
paddu.

In the table maintenance generator, Environment --> Modifications --> Events then a screen will be appear here,we need to create the Events.In the EVENTS screen, press new Entries, there give 01(Before Saving the Data in the Database) and give a name(This will become a PERFORM), then click the Editor pushbutton, this will be there at the right side of the entry, then a popup will be appear, you can create an include program, there inside of the include program write ur code.
Here is documentation for Event 01(Before Saving the Data in the Database )
Event 01: Before Saving the Data in the Database
Use
This event occurs before new, changed or deleted entries are written to the database. Other activities can be performed, for example:
hidden entry processing
fill hidden fields
flag data to be written to hidden tables after the database change.
To have the changes saved by the central maintenance dialog routines, SY-SUBRC must be set to 0 at the end of the routine.
Realization
This event has no standard routine. The following global data is available for the realization of the user routine:
internal table TOTAL
field symbols
field symbols <ACTION> and <ACTION_TEXT>
<STATUS>-UPD_FLAG
If internal table data are to be changed before saving, t he changes should be made in both the internal table TOTAL and in the internal table EXTRACT.
FORM abc.
DATA: F_INDEX LIKE SY-TABIX. "Index to note the lines found
LOOP AT TOTAL.
IF <ACTION> = desired constant.
READ TABLE EXTRACT WITH KEY <vim_xtotal_key>.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
F_INDEX = SY-TABIX.
ELSE.
CLEAR F_INDX.
ENDIF.
(make desired changes to the line TOTAL)
MODIFY TOTAL.
CHECK F_INDX GT 0.
EXTRACT = TOTAL.
MODIFY EXTRACT INDEX F_INDX.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
SY-SUBRC = 0.
ENDFORM.

Issuing an Error in Table Maintenance Event

Hi,
How can I issue an error in the table maintenance event without exiting the screen.
When an event is triggered (Before Save), it will perform a check in the data changed or created. It will issue an error when the changes are not correct. But when I press enter or click on the check button, it will exit the table maintenance screen.
What do I have to do in order to issue an error but will still go back to the table maintenance view.
Making the message as information or type I, will not work because it will still save.

Hi,
I came to the same problem, maybe this will help someone.
You can move check into view cluster event.
1. load the view
     PERFORM vcl_set_table_access_for_obj
          USING 'view'
          CHANGING error_flag.
2. assing to structure
     LOOP AT <vcl_total> INTO ls_view
3. perform check, set VCL_STOP which will stop saving and will display message
     VCL_STOP = 'X'.
     MESSAGE ....

Problem with table maintenance event

Hi Experts,
In the table maintenance event 05 for a ztable, I have written logic to validate if few key fields and non key fields are not initial.
If they are initial,need to throw an error message and it has to stay in the same screen.But right now it grays out the non key field.
Tried the combination of events 01 and 05 it grays out the key field.
Please let me know if there are any ways to achieve this without making modifications in the PBO or PAI of the ztable.
Regards,
Sridevi

I have this exact problem, why is this thread 'closed'? Is there an answer provided somewhere?
I have found a topic which shows an information message, which claims that the data is not saved.
But it does save the data if you use an information message and blocks non-key fields when using an error message
so this problem is still open for me.
Does anybody have a solution?
Ah an answer was indeed provided in another topic:

ABAP Table Maintenance Events

Hello All ,
I have created the Table Maintenance with Events .
When the user enter the sales order number & item in the Txn code screen of the table .The Event 05 triggers & pulls out information for Sales Order Customer ,Material ,Plant & show it in the screen .
There are two more fields for user input Valid to & Valid from , the user now fills in these fields & then press Save button in the screen .
Now He gets the Short dump related to duplicate entries .
I checked the standard code & it is trying to enter data into the Internal table
MOD_ELEM_TAB & since already the same entry exsist in this table so program dumps out .
Kindly suggest the way to solve this issue .
Best regards,
Anurag Goel .

Check with table primary keys and if you are creating same data again and again,
then you will get short dump..
so keep the validation like if record already exits then give message.
else you want to create same data again and again then create one more field and it is like count (keep as primary key ).
Reward Points if it is helpful
thanks

Hi,
Use this FM instead of Move statement.. In Unicode environments the left and right operands should be of same data type. to over come this you can use the below FM
   CALL FUNCTION 'HR_99S_COPY_STRUC1_STRUC2'
          EXPORTING
             P_STRUCT1       = total
        IMPORTING
             P_STRUCT2       = fs_zsdslsbud.

Table Maintenance events and field focus

Hi all,
In event 01(save data) of table maintenance, I have the code to ensure some fields are not left blank:
When testing the creation of table records in SM31, it gives me the error msg successfully, but after that greys out all fields in that row except the primary keys.
- My primary keys are already filled.
- The mandatory field that must be filled is not filled yet, but is greyed out after the error message is given.
How can I avoid this and set focus on the mandatory non-key field?
My code as follows:
***INCLUDE LZBUSICONNF03 .
FORM CHECKMANDATORYFIELDS.
IF ZPWHPO_INC-HPO_NAME IS INITIAL.
* Enter company code
MESSAGE e100(ZBUSICONN_MSGCLASS).
ENDIF.
* Validation of COMPANY_CODE
* IF TABLEN-company_code IS INITIAL.
ENDFORM.

Hello,
To check on not key fields, you can modify the "Maintenance screens". There you can use the logic as in any other dialog program and add you own check in a PAI module.

Extended Table Maintenance Events - 22

Dear Friends,
I'm trying out writing the Event 22 - Go to Long Text Maintenance for Other Languages. I have written the code in the particular interface format:
FORM xxxxxxx USING M_MODE
CHANGING TEXT_WA MODIF.
After activating also it is not appearing in the table maintenance. Please suggest something.
Regards,
Deva.

Hi Divya,
whenever you attatch event in the table maintenace, you have to take care of the following points :
1. The table and the function group should be activated.
2. The form routine name should be the same what you entered in the column against the event number under the form routine ( t-code : se55).
I did attatch the event no. 22 and it is activated ..and i can see in my table maintenance.
Regards,
Kunal.

Extended Table Maintenance Events 05: Original line when copy entry?

Hello,
in the Extended Table Maintenance <b>Events 05</b> I want to <b>copy</b> my own tables. For that I need to know not only the newly created line, but also the original line which was the template for the copy.
I know this line is contained in table EXTRACT, but how do I identify it?
Is there an index pointing to the "old" line inside EXTRACT?
Is there a work area containing the old line?
I thought workarea EXTRACT contains the old line and <TABLE1> the new line, but debugging proofed that both are the same.
Any idea?
Best regards,
Cedric

Any body can help me?

Short Dump in table maintenance events

Dear Experts,
I am getting a short dump when i am trying to maintain my Z table. the error is "The statement "MOVE src TO dst" requires that the operands "dst" and "src" are convertible. Since this statement is in a Unicode program, the special conversion rules for Unicode programs apply. In this case, these rules were violated.
the actual short dump is appearing at Move total to fs_zsdslsbud.
ZSDSLSBUD table has a NUMC, 4 char field but in total internal table it is appearing as 0000####. I guess this is the error. I tried to replicate the same code where there are only char type fields and i dont have any issues with below code.
My Z table also have a currency field. How to handle the unicode conversion in this case? can i use Try and Catch statements. A piece of code would be appriciated.
Thanks in advance.

Table Maintenance Generator-Before Delete event not working with sort

Hi All,
I have requirement to sort the TMG for a custom table with non primary key and also to put condition for deleting entries, so that only specific entries can be deleted.
I did the sorting by adding MODULE SORT in the PBO of the Screen and providing the logic to sort EXTRACT and TOTAL tables with the required field. This is working correctly.
Also I used BEFORE_DELETE (Event 03) to unmark all entries selected, which is not satisfying the condition. This is also working as expected.
But, though they are working independently, these changes are not working together.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Savitha

Open T-code on double click of field in table maintenance

Hi Gurus,
I have one scenario, I have to show a transaction on double click event on a field of Table Maintence.
Please guide me in this .
Is there is any event in Table Maintenance Events to capture double_click of a field.
Regards,
Sowmen

1. In the field attributes of the particular field there is a chechbox in display tab which says respond to double click, check that.
2. Assign the fuction code "PICK" for function code F2 in GUI status.
3.Now whenver you double click the field function code "PICK" gettes triggeed.
Now you can wrie yyou code based on this function code.
CASE sy-comm.
WHEN 'PICK'.
*If you want the name of the field and the value in that field use the below code.
GET CURSOR FIELD gv_field VALUE gv_cursor_value.
*DO your operation based on the field and the value.
ENDCASE.
