BBC

Hi,
Thanks for your inputs,
Now I have included add, modify, delete and save functionalities to ALV table.
Here What I did, fist it shows the list of records from data base table with ALV table as ready only mode.
Then
If we click on add button then last row will add with editable mode,
If we select a row and click on modify button then in that row fourth field only editable (because first three are primary key fields).
If we select row and click on delete then record deleted and updated in database table.
If click on save button, it captures the modified ones then saved.
if we test individual functionality, it is working fine.
If we do fist add functionality then after saving if we click on modify row then it is showing total row as in editable mode.
Here as per modify fyctionlaity in that row fourth field only have to show editable.
Please can you suggest how to resolve this issue?

What is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC

CAN ANY EXPLAIN ME
1.what is the purpose of TABLE MAINTENANCE GENERATOR IN ABAP DDIC?
2. AND THE CONTENTS IN ITS TABS.
KINDLY LET ME KNOW.IT IS URGENT

Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table maintenance generator.
In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group, Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name), Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button, a table maintenance generator will be created.
To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.
We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table entries by choosing Maintain.
Why we have to go for Table maintenance generator, when we can edit the table by SE16 or SE11, utilities->create entries?
In the production system, end-users will not be having access to transaction codes like SE11 and SE16. Developers will not be having access to many transaction codes including the above two.
To view the contents of the database table, we will use SE16n in Production system. Please find out the difference between SE16 and SE16n.All these authorizations will be maintained by BASIS team, by creating access profiles.
So in order to edit or create the contents of a database table, we should go for table maintenance generator. In real time, authorizations will be maintained in production system. (even in development and Test systems to some extent).
There is an audit like Sarbanes-Oxley Act for American clients, where every thing will be audited by government agency. To know more about SOX, use the links on the right hand side of this page.
The second reason is, we can edit or create multiple entries at a time, using table maintenance generator.
Apart from that we have options like 'Enter conditions' in table maintenance screen SM30. Please try to find out the use of those, by creating an example.Table Maintenance generator: Difference between one step and two steps.
While creating table maintenance generator, we find below options:
1. When we choose one step, we have to give the screen number in Overview Screen field.
2. When we choose two step, we have to give both overview screen number and single screen number.
You can give any number for screen. Dont give 1000 screen number. As this number is reserved for selection screen.
When we choose two step, two screens will be created for table maintenance. For single step only one screen will be created.
When we choose two step, table maintenance will work as follows:
Go to SM30, give the table name for which you have created table maintenance-
Overview screen will be displayed. To create entries, when you click on new entries.
Another screen will be displayed, where you give input and save.
You can enter one record at a time.
We use single step generally, as it is user friendly.
To completely understand the difference and above points please do exercise by creating table maintenance generator in both ways (using single step and two step).

Table maintenance generator events

Hi,
I have created a table maintenance generator and want to populate sy-uname and sy-datum into two fields during SAVE. So I went to Environment -> Modification -> Events and selected "01" event i.e. "Before saving the data in the database" and entered Form routine as "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE". Then if I go to SM30 transaction it goes to dump.
Could you please tell whether I am missing any point?
Regards,
Balaji Viswanath.

Hi,
Pasted it below.
Runtime Error          PERFORM_NOT_FOUND
Except.                CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORM
Date and Time          01/31/2008 09:26:52
ShrtText
     Call (PERFORM) to a non-existent routine.
What happened?
     The current program attempted to call an externally defined routine
     that does not exist.
     Error in ABAP application program.
     The current ABAP program "SAPLZTEST321" had to be terminated because one of the
     statements could not be executed.
     This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
     The current ABAP program had to be terminated because the
     ABAP processor detected an internal system error.
     The current ABAP program "SAPLZTEST321" had to be terminated because the ABAP
     processor discovered an invalid system state.
What can you do?
     Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)
     and make a note of the actions and input that caused the
     error.
     To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
     You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer
      termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion
     date.
    is especially useful if you want to keep a particular message.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below
    . The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORM',
     was neither
    caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure
     "PREPARE_SAVING" "(FORM)"
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception
     to occur, the running program was terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    The program "SAPLZTEST321" is meant to execute an external PERFORM,
    namely the routine "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " of the program "SAPLZTEST321 ", but
    this routine does not exist.
    This may be due to any of the following reasons:
    1. One of the programs "SAPLZTEST321" or "SAPLZTEST321 " is currently being
     developed.
    The name "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " of the called routine may be incorrect, or
    the routine "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " is not yet implemented in the program
     "SAPLZTEST321 ".
    2. If the program SAPMSSY1 is involved in the runtime error, one of
    the function modules called via RFC is not flagged as remote-capable.
    (see Transaction SE37 Goto->Administration->RFC flag)
    3. There is an inconsistency in the system. The versions of the
    programs "SAPLZTEST321" and "SAPLZTEST321 " do not match.
How to correct the error
    - Check that transports to the system are complete.
    - Conclude any developments already begun ("SAPLZTEST321" and/or "SAPLZTEST321
    - Check routine names
    You may able to find an interim solution to the problem
    in the SAP note system. If you have access to the note system yourself,
    use the following search criteria:
    "PERFORM_NOT_FOUND" CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORMC
    "SAPLZTEST321" or "LSVIMF14"
    "PREPARE_SAVING"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself and you wish to send
    an error message to SAP, include the following documents:
    1. A printout of the problem description (short dump)
       To obtain this, select in the current display "System->List->
       Save->Local File (unconverted)".
    2. A suitable printout of the system log
       To obtain this, call the system log through transaction SM21.
       Limit the time interval to 10 minutes before and 5 minutes
       after the short dump. In the display, then select the function
       "System->List->Save->Local File (unconverted)".

Table Maintenance Generator - Lock of entries from different user

Hi there,
It looks like that there are a lot of threads about table maintenance generators, but none related with this one. The case is when I created a customer table Ztable and using table maintenace generator to get the Tcode Ztcode. My questions is how can 2 different user at the same time running this Ztocde without locking with each other?
Thanks in advance!
Weidong

Hi there,
From what I know it can be done through customer ABAP program transaction code but not from Table maintenance generator generated Tcode.
Any suggestion?

Calculations while entering data into table via table maintenance generator

Hi all,
This is the following requirement.
I created a ztable and also I created the table maintenance generator. I have two fields which accept integer data.
The requirement is when I enter value in the first field from the tcode SM30 the data should be populated into the second field automatically by subtracting the first value from 100.
Can anyone explain me how I can do that.
Thanks,
Daniel

hi,
take the help of events in TMG and write the code in that event
like field2 = field1 - 100
steps to create events
Step: 1: Create a table
Step: 2: In SE11, go to Utilities --> table maintenance generator.
Step: 3: Follow the path Environment --> Modification --> Events.
Step: 4: Click new entries, select a table maintenance dialog event which suits your requirement.
Step: 5: Create a form routine.
Step: 6: Include your logic in the routine created in step 5.
Hope this helps you.

please telll me how to create the table maintenance generator for maintenance view yv_mmim_rep_cust.
Thanks in advance,
Dastagiri

Hi ,
Table Maintenance generator is used to maintain data in table , instead of giving access to se11 , we create a tcode for this table maintenance generator and we will give this tcode to end-user to maintain data
To generate table Maintenance generator :
click on UTILITIES in menu bar
-> table maintenance generator
-> enter Authorization Group as : &NC&
-> Enter Function Group : name of your table ( so it will create a function group , to check this function group go to tcode se80 : then select function and enter your Table name )
-> Then click on find screen numbers in Application tool bar.
-> Then click on create button in Application tool bar
if it is created successfully , then you will get a status message like table maintained generator is created successfully.

Purpose of table maintenance generator

wht is the purpose of table maintenance generator

Hi Pavan,
The purpose of table maintainence generator is to enable the table maintenance through SM30, and to implement and validation etc on table field inputs.
SE11->Utillities->table maintainence generator
You need to enter the values of following fields:
1. Table name
2. Authorization group , and authorization object (select the suitable one )
3. Function group and package
4. Maintainence type : single or double screen maintainence view depending on the option selected.
5. Maintain screen number : you may specify a value or let the system generate one for you.
The validation code for the table entry is written in the flow logic of this screen. Even some of the fields may be made display only , by adding suitable code in the logic or directly disabling the input in table control in the layout.
Table maintanance is for creating,adding datas to an existing table.
it is for adding muiltiple records at a time in the table
A table can be manipulated by a program or manually.
When creating table, you will find a check box 'Table maintenance allowed'. If we
check that option, we can manually enter entries using SE16 or table
maintenance generator screen.
SE16 is for data browser.
Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table
maintenance generator.
In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group,
Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name),
Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one
step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button,
a table maintenance generator will be created.
To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.
We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table
entries by choosing Maintain.
In the production system, end-users will not be having access to transaction
codes like SE11 and SE16. Developers will not be having access to many
transaction codes including the above two.
To view the contents of the database table, we will use SE16n in Production
system. Please find out the difference between SE16 and SE16n.
All these authorizations will be maintained by BASIS team, by creating access
profiles.
So in order to edit or create the contents of a database table, we should go for
table maintenance generator. In real time, authorizations will be maintained in
production system. (even in development and Test systems to some extent).
There is an audit like Sarbanes-Oxley Act for American clients, where every thing
will be audited by government agency. To know more about SOX, use the links on
the right hand side of this page.
The second reason is, we can edit or create multiple entries at a time, using table
maintenance generator.
Apart from that we have options like 'Enter conditions' in table maintenance
screen SM30. Please try to find out the use of those, by creating an example.
Table Maintenance generator: Difference between one step and two steps.
While creating table maintenance generator, we find below options:
When we choose one step, we have to give the screen number in Overview Screen field.
When we choose two step, we have to give both overview screen number and single screen number.
You can give any number for screen. Dont give 1000 screen number. As this
number is reserved for selection screen.
When we choose two step, two screens will be created for table maintenance. For
single step only one screen will be created.
When we choose two step, table maintenance will work as follows
Go to SM30, give the table name for which you have created table maintenance-
Overview screen will be displayed. To create entries, when you click on new
entries. Another screen will be displayed, where you give input and save. You can
enter one record at a time.
Go to SM30; give table name for which you have created table maintenance-
Overview screen will be displayed; To create entries click on new entries, you can
enter the records on the same screen. You can enter multiple records at a time.
We use single step generally, as it is user friendly.
To completely understand the difference and above points please do exercise by
creating table maintenance generator in both ways (using single step and two
step).

One step, two step in Table Maintenance Generator
Single step: Only overview screen is created i.e. the Table Maintenance Program will have only one screen where you can add, delete or edit records.
Two step: Two screens namely the overview screen and Single screen are created. The user can see the key fields in the first screen and can further go on to edit further details.

Error while creating table maintenance generator

Hi,
I am getting below error while creating table maintenance generator.
Screen SAPLZtest 0002 could not be generated. In DYNPFIELD_ATTR field LENGTH has the invalid value 241.
Reason for that error might be:
In the table I have a field with a dataelement(customized) of type Char and length 241.
But in the other table Iam using the standard data element(standard) of same type(241 char).In this table Iam able to create table maintenance generator without any errors.
And the domain Iam using is same for both the tables.
Please help me to solve this.
Thanks in advance,
Sravanthi

Addition of a new column in Table Maintenance Generator

Hi All,
I have a requirement in which I have to include a new field in Table Maintenance Generator . This field is not present in the table but its data will be fetched from another table . Pls help me in this regard.
I have little idea of Table control .
Regards,
Nibha

Hi Nibha,
Table maintenance generator screen is an automatically generated screen. You cannot to any changes in that and neither can you do the changes in the PBO and/or PAI.
You can do it but it will ask you for SAP key etc. So there's not need to do it that way.
What you could do is;
1. Go to the table maintenence generator from SE11, in Change Mode.
2. Click on change icon. The system will show the 'Change Generation Elements' screen where it sill ask you the resson
    for change.
3. Click on the New Field/Sec. table in struction (or whichever is appropriate/applicable in your case)
4. Press Ok (Tick sign).
5. Then it will show you the ''Change Generation Elements: Detail' screen.Here;
       => You will select the maintenance screen that you wish to change( Overview/Single).
       =>   And the Field Type. Whether it is a key field or normal field.
              Select which ever is applicable.
6. The system will then re-generate the screen for you and - You'll Smile! - that you got the answer!
Cheers!
