User field in document draft

Hi All,
I would like to restrict users to select another users when they are opening document draft. There is a field user there but I see that I can open it although it is not document I have created. Is it possible ? Thanks in advance for your answer.

Hi,
By setting document draft selection criteria to 3001, the user will not be able to open the Document Drafts window at all. I believe this is not what you want?
But I see that you want to "restrict users to select another users when they are opening document draft". There is no real way to just restrict that Users Drop Down field.

How to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents autom.

Hi All,
Can anyone pls tell me "**how to make warehouse field inactive for all users in all documents without having to do it through form setting** "for each and every user. It should be visible but inactive
Thanks & Regards,
Mukesh Agrawal

Hi,
As a work around create a warehouse SelectWH and map the mandatory acoounts as a On hold account(in chart of accounts).So there will not be any posting on this account.
And set this warehouse as default warehouse for all users.
So without selecting the appropriate warehouse the user can not add the document.
I think this might resolve you issue.

User name field in Document Information Record

Based on our process design, we would like to use the user field to define the owner of the document (owner is the person in the organization, who initiates the creation of the document and owns it throughout the life-cycle of the document). An example would be the development of a new SOP (Standard Operating Procedure).
The advantage of this setup would allow us to use standard role 155 for sending workflow notifications back to the owner during the review and approval process of the document.
We would like to deactivate the automatic change of the user field, when a original stored in a secure storage area is checked out in edit mode. In this scenario, the user name that has been entered during the initial creation of the DIR will be changed to the active user (sy-user) that has opened the document for editing.
Has anybody come across this requirement? Is there a BADI for document management that could be activated when the document is checked out in edit mode to deactivate the change of the user field? If not, where would we have to apply a mod. to disable the update of the user field with the active user during editing of the document original.
Also, any other idea to make this work would be welcome.

Hi Fredrich
You would definitely be able to do this, I'm sure you could use the standard BADI on save to default this back to the original value, however, I see some issues with this, namely from a system audit perspective. Personally, I would rather change the original workflow and use a classification field (link it to table USR02 or USR01 to enable username searching) for the author to prevent it being changed.
By changing the value you effectively lose your search functionality in CV04N because if a user is searching for a document he/she just changed, this will not appear for user based searches because he/she is not the user listed in the DIR.

Update document lines user fields

Hi,
I'm trying to update a user field of a purchase invoice line through the DI API.
The Update method returns 0, but the field isn't updated!
I use this code:
Dim RetVal As Integer
Dim Doc As SAPbobsCOM.Documents = DirectCast(Company.GetBusinessObject(oPurchaseInvoices), SAPbobsCOM.Documents)
If Doc.GetByKey(_CurrentDocId) Then
    Doc.Lines.SetCurrentLine(0)
    Doc.Lines.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_CONAI").Value = "Y"
    Doc.UserFields.Fields.Item("U_IB_OldProtI").Value = 987
    RetVal = Doc.Update()
    If RetVal <> 0 Then Beep()
End If
Updating a user field on the document (not on the lines) works fine!
Can anyone help me please?
I'm using SAP 8.8 SP 0 PL 11
Thank you
Paolo

Hi Paolo,
I think the reason behind the inability to change document row data, and also most of the header data, is due to both legal requirements and information transparency (mainly accounting, stock and taxes).
I share your view that the update function should return a value other then 0 when the document is not updated. You can suggest this change by opening a post in the Product Development Collaboration forum.
Kind Regards,
Vítor Vieira

Update routine to populate value for field ZDOCCATG(Document category)

Hi Experts,
   I need to populate data for field ZDOCCATG(Document Category) based on the value of the below two fields,
1. 0deb_cre_lc(Debit / credit Amount)
2. 0ac_doc_typ(Belegart)
The logic is as follows:
if 0deb_cre_lc > '0'.
     if 0ac_doc_typ == 'dz'.
      ZDOCCATG = Disputes.
     else
ZDOCCATG = Invoices.
   end If.
else
if 0ac_doc_typ < '0'.
ZDOCCATG = Credits.
end if.
I need to write the update routine to get the values assigned for Document category based on these two fields. When i open the routine for the field ZDOCCATG, i can see the below screen:
PROGRAM UPDATE_ROUTINE.
$$ begin of global - insert your declaration only below this line -
TABLES: ...
DATA:   ...
$$ end of global - insert your declaration only before this line   -
FORM compute_data_field

           RECORD_NO LIKE SY-TABIX
           RECORD_ALL LIKE SY-TABIX
           SOURCE_SYSTEM LIKE RSUPDSIMULH-LOGSYS
CHANGING RESULT LIKE /BIC/AZOARFSCM00-/BIC/ZDOCCATG
           RETURNCODE LIKE SY-SUBRC "Do not use!
           ABORT LIKE SY-SUBRC. "set ABORT <> 0 to cancel update
$$ begin of routine - insert your code only below this line        -
fill the internal table "MONITOR", to make monitor entries
result value of the routine
RESULT = .
if abort is not equal zero, the update process will be canceled
ABORT = 0.
$$ end of routine - insert your code only before this line         -
ENDFORM.
Please let me know the code to be inserted (based on the logic mentioned above) in the above screen . Thanks

Kavitha Jagannath

Hi Kavitha,
      Supposing the technical name of fields is /bic/0deb_cre_lc and /bic/0ac_doc_typ use the code below at the marked position.
PROGRAM UPDATE_ROUTINE.

How to include field in document header

Dear All,
Any one please give me some input on how to include a field in document header of f-02 .
Thanks,
Srini.

Hi,
You will have to modify the screen via SE51 (program SAPMF05A, screen 100). Ask to your ABAP team to help you, though such a modification should be carefully considered.
By the way, is it a user-defined field or field that should be there and is just missing? If the last is true, it could be a bug and solved by relevant OSS correction.

How to make a User Field Read Only?

Hi,
How can i make a title userfield in a Document Form read only?
I can't set enabled to false i just want to make it read only.
I had tried to capture de key_down event on the user field, nothing happens!
I had tried to capture de form_key_down event on the user field... SAP throws the event without the item id reference.
Is there a work-around for this?
thanks,
Ricardo Momm

Hi,
1. capture et_click and click to another item, also save the original value to a variable
and/or
2. use et_validate with before_action = true to be sure the item hasnt changed and set bubbleevent
to false when the value is different from the variable

Copy field in a user field

hi,
i want to copy entry invoice description field of a single article code ( description change for lines) in a user field that's i've created in creation serial numbers form when i insert manual serial number. anyone can help me? thanks

You will need to create a formatted search to a column at the Invoice row. The formatted search will insert the ItemCode, Description, Currentlogged User, Invoice No to a temp table.
In the Serial Number screen you will attach another FMS which will read the Item desciption from this temp table.
If the Item Description does not change in every document and is the same as the Item Master, you can simple read it from the Item Master without any of the above procedures.
SELECT T0.ITEMNAME FROM [DBO\].[OITM\] T0 WHERE T0.ITEMCODE = $\[$5.17.0]
Note: ItemCode column should be visible in the Available Serial Number window

Connect a user field on a matrix system, an object "UDO" custom

Hello everyone,
I have a problem, I'm trying to add a user field that I inserted in the lines of the documents, the connection with my UDO but "SAP " returns the message: "Item - The item is not a user-defined item [66000-8 ]. "
' ==> pVal.EventType = SAPbouiCOM.BoEventTypes.et_FORM_LOAD
Dim frm As SAPbouiCOM.Form = mSboApp.Forms.Item(FormUID)
Dim mtx As SAPbouiCOM.Matrix = frm.Items.Item("38").Specific
mtx.Columns.Item("U_AZICK_STRM").ChooseFromListUID = OBJ_STRUN
mtx.Columns.Item("U_AZICK_STRM").ChooseFromListAlias = "Code"
How can I do?
Thanks

Hi
I think it is not possible on a matrix.But you can create UDF and assign choose from list in the header level .

How to add custom field in Documents Tab of PO Header ?

Dear SRM Friends,
This is a challenging task as an ABAPer to confront to..
We are in the midst of a requirement where we have to add a custom field in the PO Header. But the requirement is to add the field in Documents Tab in PO Header Data as found in the following path of SRM Webpage :
Operational Purchaser > Purchase Orders > Process Purchase Order > Select a PO > Header Data > Documents.
As guided by "Note 672960 - User-defined fields 2" , on executing all the steps of the note the field is getting added, but in the Basic Data Tab of the PO. But this doesnt meet the client requirement.
Anybody having some solution to this, shall be greatly awarded.
Thanks in advance,
Vikas.

Hi Vikas,
You can define a Text ID in Header data with F4 help. But the list of values will be fixed, but configurable. This will exactly solve your problem. This will be quite simple and straight forward solution with no custom developments.
Please Navigate to
SAP Implementation Guide -> Supplier Relationship Management -> SRM Server
-> Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Text Schema
1. Define Text Types
Select BBP_PD and double click text id. Add a new text id here.
2. Define Text Schema
Select PO and add the newly created text id and set required parameters.
3. Define Fixed Values for Texts
Select your PO transaction type and maintain the required values for F4 help / drop down.
Hope this would solve your problem.
Regards

Duplicate Document number in Document Draft while sending for Approval

Hello Experts,
In Purchase order when we create document and send for approval ... if in a single day we create 25-30 Purchase orders, system assign same number lets say: 120011 to all the 30 documents created in a single day.
is there a way we can give unique number to all the PO drafts being created and sending for approval ... ?
Help Required
Regards,

Hi Shazad,
The document number that you refer to works as follows. If you go into Purchase Orders, it will say that the next purchase order number (OPCH.DocNum) will be for example 345. When you're done capturing the information and go to File > Save as draft, the same screen appears again and you can add another draft.
Seeing that the first draft didn't actually create a purchase order, but only a draft, the next available number is allocated. The next available purchase order number is still 345.Only you add a actual purchase order will the number be changed again.
Internally in the SAP database, the DocEntry field of the draft contains the actual draft internal number. You can view this number if you open the drafts. Draft No is unique, but document number isn't and doesn't matter until the actual document is added.
Hope it helps,
Adele

AJAX based field in document library default new form

I have a field in my document library which is reading data from another field in the same library.
For this to achieve I am using Lookup field which is working fine. But I want to change it so instead of a drop down where the user selects value from lookup, I want to give a textbox and as user starts typing, it reads data from lookup field and start displaying
results which user can choose.
I am talking about the same "instant search" feature which is commonly around or another example is User field in SharePoint form, which when you start typing user name, shows you name from the AD.
So is it possible to do the same in EditForm.aspx?

Hi,
This is 100% possible by customizing editform using SharePoint designer. the solution you are looking for termed as Auto Complete text box.
there are various solutions available using Javascript.
Here is the reference for it.

How to find all changes in project builder (especially in user field)

Hi All,
Please advice, how can i get the history who change our data in cj20n (project builder),especially in user field tab.
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Nies

I am stating once again what ever was mentioned earlier:
Check the below:
1. Is Change documents indicator enabled in the project profile?
2. Have you created a User Status for business transaction 'Create Change documents' as allowed for the object WBS. (I assume you want to log the changes of WBS user defined fields)
3. Have you used the this profile while creating the project?
4. Did you set the user status on the WBS? This needs to be done manually
5. Have you released the WBS?
Now try make changes to existing fields of WBS and save it. Run the report CN60
