Can we say that Table Maintenance Generator is Function Group?

Hi Naresh,
I think as you said it is a function group only..
When we generate a TMG, a function group with two function modules, two screens and some includes will get generated.
This function modules and screens get called dynamically through SM30.

Reg. table maintenance generator and function group

I am trying to create a table maintenance for a custom table. It is asking for a function group. Should I create a new function group for each table maintenance I generate?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Hi Krishen,
You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).
Please check this link for more info.

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.
Difference Between Select Single and Select UpTo One Rows
According to SAP Performance course the SELECT UP TO 1 ROWS is faster than SELECT SINGLE because you are not using all the primary key fields.
select single is a construct designed to read database records with primary key. In the absence of the primary key, it might end up doing a sequential search, whereas the select up to 1 rows may assume that there is no primary key supplied and will try to find most suitable index.
The best way to find out is through sql trace or runtime analysis.
Use "select up to 1 rows" only if you are sure that all the records returned will have the same value for the field(s) you are interested in. If not, you will be reading only the first record which matches the criteria, but may be the second or the third record has the value you are looking for.
The System test result showed that the variant Single * takes less time than Up to 1 rows as there is an additional level for COUNT STOP KEY for SELECT ENDSELECT UP TO 1 ROWS.
The 'SELECT SINGLE' statement selects the first row in the database that it finds that fulfils the 'WHERE' clause If this results in multiple records then only the first one will be returned and therefore may not be unique.
Mainly: to read data from
The 'SELECT .... UP TO 1 ROWS' statement is subtly different. The database selects all of the relevant records that are defined by the WHERE clause, applies any aggregate, ordering or grouping functions to them and then returns the first record of the result set.
Mainly: to check if entries exist.

Table maintenance generator with radiobuttons

Hello,
how can I automatically (via se11: table maintenance generator) generate from a DDIC-structure the radiobtton-fields on a dynpro?
If I use the domaine 'X' or 'XFELD', I only get checkboxes....
kind regards

Hi,
Table Maintenance Generator will create the Z Screens.
In order modify those Z screens go to SE80 and give the
Function group for that table maintenance generator.
Then to find the function group go to sm30, give the table name and click on display. It show a screen with table control. Click on System -> Status .
It gives you the Z screen information.
Give that Z screen in SE80 and do the changes accordingly.
I hope it helps you.

Excel download functionality in Table maintenance generator

Hi Friends,
I have a requirement.
I have to create a custom table and should have a table maintenance for that.
I can do this via table maintenance generator.
But after creating this, in the maintenance screen, i should have a button. On clicking the button, a popup should ask for excel file name and after specifying the file name all the data in the maintenance screen has to get downloaded to a excel file.
So, my idea to implement is, change the code generated by table maintenance generator, to accomplish this.
In the menu painter, create a button. and have a ok code for that.
In the screen painter, design a screen with filename field and have a ok button. Accept the filename input and close the screen and then for that ok code in the PAI module, use GUI_DOWNLOAD function to download the excel file to the specified location.
Please review this and please let me know if there is any alternative solution for this requirement.
Thanks,
Jaffer Ali.S

Hi,
After maintaining table maintenence generator maintain one push button in pai of the table program .
in that when 'download'.
call function module f4_filename it will ask file name enter that value.
after using gui_download you can down load to excel file.
To download from SAP to Excel:
Transaction SE16N allows you to access any sap table and download result to Excel
no other alternative for this.

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.

Some tables created before are OK. What's the matter with it?
Many Thanks

hello daniel,
there is very possibility that some inconsistency might be occured while generating table maintenance generator. So i would advice u to create ur table maintenance generator once more after deleting the current one.

Hi,
go to the table maintenance generator of your table.
Go to the path Environment -> Modification -> Events
They might have written some events to auto generate the number

EVENT problem in Table maintenance generator

Hello all
             I m working on 4.6C sytem. I m facing 2 problems in events in table maintenance generator
(1) I am using 04 event (After deleting records from table)   I have written BREAK-POINT in the Form .....ENDFORM... But the control doesnt stop there , when i select an existing record and press delete record button? not able to understand this
(2) When i implement even t 03( Before deleting records from table) , and select an existing record and press delete record button . Control successfully Go to corresponding FORM ...   BREAK-POINT ENDFORM .
But now the problem is.. in debuggin i can see the contents in TOTAL table but when i try to code LOOP at TOTAL ..ENDLOOP...it gives me syntax error saying " table TOTAL doesnot exists or not defined..but similar field TOTAL_S , TOTAL_M , TOTAL_L exists.. ???
how come i can see the same during debugging but cannot code it ?
Plese help
Nilesh

Hi Nilesh,
(1) I think the control will stop there after you delete AND save. Not sure about that but give it a try.
(2) I believe you are trying to access fields inside table TOTAL, is that right?
Actually you have to declare a work area with your Z table type.
DATA: w_workarea type ztable.
LOOP at total.
w_workarea = total.
endoop.
Then you can work with w_workarea.
Best regards.

I have created a Table Maintance program through the Table Maintenance Generator. And for that I have assigned a t code.
I can able to create new entires but i can not able to modify Valid_from and Valid_to entries of existing records.
Initially those two fields were in display mode but i went to its module pool program and made then as input enabled. But what the vales I was entering, its not getting saved in database. When we change the values of those fields and save it, the system is saying No Data Change.
Any inputs how to solve this issue. I can not make VALID_FROM and VALID_TO fields as non key.
Regards,

Hi,
As you have already said that the value for valid to is a part of the key so you should not have any issues when this value is changed and the value is saved using the table maintainence generator, but in case you want to save values where the value for valid from has changed but the key is same we would not be able to save as there is already a value for the key, so if you want to save these values there are two ways 1 would either to delete the existing value value and create the new value or to have one more field as the key field like a counter so when the value is saved with a key the value is saved with counter as 1 and then ever next time for the new values increase the value of the counter.
In order to save these values use event 5 and put you code there.
You can also carry out checks for new aithorization in that event also.

Himanshu

Table maintenance generator - + symbol instead of field label

Hi All,
I have created the table maintenance generator for the table and I have created theh transaction code the same as like SM30 and if I execute that transaction ocde, I can see all the fields with the correct description at the initial screen level. If I say New entries... Here I could not able to see the field description for the table fields for which the data element is not maintained.
Is there any solution to resolve this problem without maitaining the data elements for that fields.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Ramesh.

By far the easiest way of doing this is to maintain the description on the data elements. Why don't you want to do this?

Regarding table maintenance generator

hi
i have one scenario . supppose there are 4 fields in a table. user enters data into it using table maintenance generator. he enters data only for 2 fields remaining 2 fields should get populated automatically.
is it possible?

Go to SE11->Table Maintenance generator -> Environment->Modification-> Events
Here you can define events and the form routines that will be invoked on that particular event.
Say for example you want to populate details for the user who created the records, define the form FRM_CR_DATE (any form routine name) for populating the Create Details using event 05.
Event 05 is fired for "Creating a new entry".
Click on the EDITOR Button and write the following code for saving the user details while creating a new record.
*       FORM FRM_CR_DATE                                              *
form frm_cr_date .
ztablename-created_by      = sy-uname .
ztablename-created_on      = sy-datum .
ztablename-create_time     = sy-uzeit.
endform .
The current username, system date and time will be moved to the table work area for each record created.

Can we say that Table Maintenance Generator is Function Group?
