How to Check Characterstic Values assigned for a material

Hi ,
My requirement is , to check each and every material entered in the selection screen and characterstic values assigned to this,
I dont need characterstic values for a material, i have to check whether characterstic values assigned or not , if not i have to give a message..
I used CLAF_CLASSIFICATION_OF_OBJECTS FM for getting charactersic values
it is giving NO classification found , but for tghat material classification is existing subsequently characterstic values are also there, i passed material no with leading zeros also.
i used WMCL_MAT_READ_CHAR_VALUES FM also , but it is giving No charcterstic values found for that Material but characterstic values are assigned for that Material..
Could u please find out ,where i am missing

THIS MATERIAL HAS CLASSIFICATION VIEW AND CHARACTERSTIC VALUES ALSO MAINTAINED
DATA : MATNO TYPE AUSP-OBJEK,
      L TYPE I,
T_CLASS TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF SCLASS ,

Characterstic value assignment table

Hi All
Could you please let me know in which table can i find characterstic value assignment data?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Table:IBSYMBOL IB: Characteristic Value Assignment

Updating the characterstic values in the classification view

Hi,
We are trying to update the characterstic values in the material master through AUSP table (BDC program). We want to replace the old values with the new values. But the program is appending the new characterstic values to the old values. This is happening inspite of the configuration setting in the characterstic transaction (CT04) such that it allows only a single value. Please suggest us in this regard.
Thanks
Ramakanth

use the following
Set and Change Values
Use
You can use this function as an easy way to change, delete, or create large quantities of assigned characteristic values. Target objects can be classified, or existing assignments can be deleted.
Prerequisites
The selected target objects must have the same class type and object type as the template object.
The characteristics must be the same for the target objects and template object.
No interval values are processed. No reference characteristics are processed.
Procedure
Enter a class type. If the class type is for multiple object types, you see a list of the object types that you can select. Select an object type.
Enter the characteristics whose values you want to change or set. To find characteristics, display the possible entries. To display all the characteristics of a class, choose Chars of class and enter the class.
Characteristics: Old and New Values
You can replace old values with new values. You can set completely new values if no value was assigned before, or delete old values.
Use the possible entries to select values.
You can only select one value for each line. If you want to process several values, you must select the same characteristic several times.
Changing Values with an Operator
If a characteristic has numeric format, you can use an operator to recalculate values. You can add, subtract, multiply, and divide figures. For character format, the operator fields are grayed out.
On the Target objs tab, enter the objects to which you want to copy the new values.
For more details on this procedure, a description of further functions, and information on the log, see the third and fourth steps in Copy Values Assigned to Object.
On the Assignments tab, you can classify the target objects or delete existing assignments. Enter the class or select one using the possible entries. You can go to class management by choosing Display class.
Choose Carry out a mass change.

Dynamic value assignment to a particular column in a vertical ALV

Hi Friends,
In the present program ALV has 44 fields and output row is only one(with some field editable).
My requirement is to change present output to vertical ALV and editable field should be available
as editable.
Now I have changed this to transposed ALV manually(not dynamically) with required fields editable.
Now there is 44 rows and two column "FIELD and "VALUE'.Some values in the second column is editable.
Previously output was like this:
field1   field2 field3 ...
val1     val2    val3   ...
Now output is like:
FIELD   VALUE
field1 value1(type INT)
field2 value2(type char5) Editable(need F4 help)
field3 value3(type date)
My present structure declaration is:
types: begin of ty_itab,
        field type char 50,
        value type char70,
        celltab type lvc_t_styl,(for editing some values in VALUE column).
       end of ty_itab.
data: itab type standard table of ty_itab.
Now the second column i have declared as CHAR70 which contains only char
values because to put all differt types of values to one single column named
'VALUE'.
But as field1 field2 field3... had differnt type of value like integer char date...I need to validate some values
(specially those which are editable) before saving to custom DB table.
So I need dynamic value assignment to VALUE column when preparing internal table for display.
What I want to say is that VALUE column should be able to contain different type of values like INT, DATE, CHAR...etc
Is the requirement is feasible?
If yes then How should I declare the structure and populate different type of values within single column 'VALUE'.
Also is it possible to have F4 helps in the second column (VALUE)???

Hi Manab,
I did something comparable: We have a very complex transaction with several subscreens with multiple fields to be filled with complex logic to create a very special contract. The requirement was to create a method to create a copy of this contract being able to apply some changes.
I created a wizard (transaction SBPT_WIZARD_BUILDER - Wizard-Builder) to accomplish that. I grouped all the fields to just 3 logical groups and thius created 3 stesp where the user gets an ALV as you describe, but we have the rows like FIELD with the new value editable. Additionally I have hidden fields with table name and field name so that I can determine the characteristics (datatype) at run time.
The value fields are just strings (every ALV field is a text field on the surface).
For editable fields, you have an event DATA_CHANGED. I used this method as a handler for the event:
(I will leave out the wizard part here - maybe a good idea for a blog to explain that)
METHOD handle_data_changed.
    CALL FUNCTION 'RS_CONV_EX_2_IN'
      EXPORTING
         input_external                     = <mod>-value
         table_field                        = ls_tabfield
I also created handlers for F1 and F4
Handler for CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->ONF1
METHOD handle_f1.
    CALL FUNCTION 'HELP_OBJECT_SHOW_FOR_FIELD'
      EXPORTING
        called_for_tab   = lv_tabname
        called_for_field = lv_fieldname
      EXCEPTIONS
        object_not_found = 1
        sapscript_error = 2
        OTHERS           = 3.
Handler for CL_GUI_ALV_GRID->HANDLE_F4
METHOD handle_f4.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_FIELD_VALUE_REQUEST'
    EXPORTING
      tabname    = lv_tabname
      fieldname = lv_fieldname
    TABLES
      return_tab = lt_return_tab
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS     = 5.
    er_event_data->m_event_handled = abap_true.
* if er_event_data->m_event_handled is not set to abap_true, system will handle it.
* In this context the message 'Keine Eingabehilfe verfügbar' will be displayed
ENDMETHOD.
This is just an excerpt from my project. It shows that you can do more in ALV as you knew.
I tried to post a little more but the formatting break down, possibly a result of the character limit

Clemens

FM for characterstic value of a function location (asset)

Hi All,
Can any one please tell me the FM module to be used for finding the characterstic value for a given characterisctic name of a function location in IL03 (classification).
I have tried using BAPI_CLASS_GET_CHARACTERISTICS, but it is not yielding the desired results.
Thanks in advance
Deepti

Hi,
I don't know why you are not getting the proper reult.
BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL iis uesd to get both character and numeric values back form the classes.
Check this:
LV_OBJECT = I_TPLNR.
CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL'
EXPORTING
OBJECTKEY = LV_OBJECT
OBJECTTABLE = 'IFLOT'
CLASSNUM = 'Z_DEPOT'
CLASSTYPE = '003'
TABLES
ALLOCVALUESNUM = WT_ALLOCVALUESNUM
ALLOCVALUESCHAR = WT_ALLOCVALUESCHAR
ALLOCVALUESCURR = WT_ALLOCVALUESCURR
RETURN = IT_RETURN.
Furthermore i have a list of BAPI. [Try this link|http://www.saptechies.com/sap-bapi-list/].
May it helps you.

Problem in prompt value assignment in free hand SQL full client report in BO 6.5

Post Author: simarora
CA Forum: Desktop Intelligence Reporting
I automated the generation of reports using the perl, XML and java servlet. A perl script is invoked by a batch file , URL of BCA scheduler and name of XML file are passed as parameters to perl script. This perl script invokes a java servlet which reads the parameters from XML and pass them to BCA. BCA generates the reports and save the external formats to a specified location.
Two of the reports that are free hand SQL reports fail to generate saying that prompt value assignment failed. Not, sure whether it is due to free hand SQL / shared conenction or something else. I have tried assigning date prompt values in different formats and even in the same format that is set in report SQLs, but it always fails.
NOTE: When generated through BO, these free hand SQL reports got generated successfully without any issues and other reports that are based on Universe get generated by this automation / API without any issues.
Log messages are as below. Please take a look and advise:

The error saying " Inconsistent characteristic value assignment". I checked all the relevant master data, every thing is okay. But I am not able to proceed further. Can any one provide some valuable inputs for this.

How to get the value assigned in dropdowmlistbox as well as radio button

Hi Everybody,
   Please help me to find the solution for the following:
   1. How to get the value assigned in dropdowmlistbox?
   2. How to get the value assigned in radio button?
I am waiting for the answer and reply...
Thanks & Regards,
ShanthaKumar.KA.

The radio button has a name attribute. That name attribute should be the same as the bean property. Then you just need a
<jsp:setProperty name="mybean" property="*"/>
and the bean's set method will be called for the value of that radio button.
so...
<input type="radio" name="doit"/>
class MyBean
public void setDoit( boolean yes )
//do whatever here
}

I am facing a problem when i am chaging sales order configuration characterstic values they are updating perfectly. But when i am creating purchase order with reference to sales order then the sales order configuration currency characterstic values are picking as 0 which are already updated perfectly in sales order.
I am using cl_cbase-> set_configuration method for to update the characterstic currency values.
cl_cbase->set_mark_for_saving after the above method
cl_cbase->save_and_free after the above method.
Would request your suggestions if you have come across this situation.

EHS: Set up Table-based Value assignment Error.

Hi all,
We are customizin Basic Data & Tools and when trying to set table based assignments (table TCG11_VAI; program RC1TCG11_02) we are getting no entries in the table. The message shown is always <i>"0 unchanged entries, 0 new entries, 0 entries deleted"</i> independant on the entry criteria
The problem is that we can create those entries manually but it will be endless
Has this happened to anyone before? Any idea?
Many thanks and regards,
Alberto

Hi all,
We have just find the solution.
Just for your information the problem was that the IMG activity "Adopt
Standard Specification Database" was executed but not working properly
because no data can be copied from client 000. Then when executing "Set
Up table Based Value Assignment" no entries were made in the table. We
have just change the client, execute "Adopt Standard Specification
Database" and then "Set Up table Based Value Assignment" and now is
working properly

Value assignment and value assignment type in the specification workbench

Hi all,
There is this section on the specification workbench called u201CProperty Treeu201D, this section contains all the value assignment type, I have two questions on this.
Question 1 u2013
What is exactly the value assignment type? The SAP help portal said it is a structure specification data and information. What exactly does it mean and its usage?
Question 2 u2013
May I know where is the SPRO configuration that actually causes the list of value assignment types appear on the property tree section for this particular specification type which I created.
In another word, I create this new specification with specification type u201CREAL_SUBu201C and specification category u201CSubstanceu201C in the specification workbench transaction. Next thing I know is that the property tree section for this particular specification consists of a list of value assignment type. How does the system assigned these list of value assignment types to this specification i created? Coz I didnu2019t do anything.
Where in SPRO and the logic link it up on this??
Thanks.

Hello all
EH&S contains a number of submodules (PS, DG, IH etc.). Regarding each submodule a basic customizing is delivered by SAP. One example is the specification type. Usually you will find something like
REAL_SUB
LIST_SUB
etc. in the Customizing as discussed. Further more I believe with EH&S 2.7. the specification category come in place (SUBSTANCE as an example). You need to take care regarding this too.
An value assignment type can be grouped in a property tree and a property tree can be linked to a specification type and there are cases known that one specification type is linked only to one property tree (this is a decision regarding business needs and not an IT quesition). Using the EHS& surface you can change the property tree per specification if the set up is done in Customizing. Therefore the property tree is a "view" on the data linked to a specification. (identifeirs etc. are managed different)
A "property" is based on a value assigment type and in many cases on a related EH&S class and characteristic. You will find these types.
A => value assignment type to be used if you need characteristics
B => value assignment type to be used if you need specification listing
C => value assignment type to be used if you need composition
.. etc.
You can mix types. That means you can create a property of type "A" and "C" (take a look in SAP original tree; you will find examples how to do it).
A propetry tree is a "list" of assignment type related to a object (specification). Using the property tree you can maintain necessary data. Therefore ithe property tree itself contains per specification the list of "potential" data structures you can fill with data. I belive SAP Standard is delviering now something like 250 properties (valeu assignment types): To e.g. get an MSDS you need to maintain I would assume at least something like 20 up to 50 properties
The area of customizing regrading property tree, specification types etc. is the most crticial to have a sucessful EH&S project running; any wrong decision gives rise to a high cost later Therefore take your time to understand what effect does which customizing acitivity have later.
Based on the value assignemnt you will create later e.g. a WWI report (like MSDS).
Additionally if necessary you can create customer specific value assignment types by either do a copy from SAP original to "Z" (highly recommended to do so!) or starting from basic.
Starting with EH&S 2.7. you have now more options to "change" EH&S using standard EH&S functionality. Take a look in customizinjg (example: you could create you own "look and feel" of the workbench (you should'nt really do that but it is possible). You can design your own "tab strips" etc.
So once again: the "correct" set up of EH&S in the area of e.g. identifers, speficiation types, property trees etc. is the "core" activity in EH&S customizing and therefore think "twice" before you change the setup up (you need to understand what a change mean)
With best regards
C.B.
