Creating a view cluster

Hi ,
I created a view cluster which contains a hierachy of 3 tables .
In trasaction sm34 when I give the entries for 1st table and choose the 2nd table, the entries that i have given already in 1st table is not coming automatically for the 2nd table .. what will be the reason.

Hi Gincy,
A view cluster is the set of objects, such as views, reports or tables which belong to one business function. The data can be arranged either hierarchically or non-hierarchically in view clusters.
A view-cluster transaction edits the complex cross-table data in a view cluster. The transaction navigation box shows the complex business object with its components or subobjects.
Some useful links are given below.

     I have created two maintenance views ZVIEW1 & ZVIEW2 with table maintenance generator.Know I am trying
     to create a view cluster using these views.
     I have Proceeded with the following steps to create the View Cluster:
     1. Tcode : SE54 --> GIven the name ZVIEWCLUSTER as View Cluster name & pressed ENTER.
     2. Filled the description of the View cluster.
     3.Selected the tab OBJECT STRUCTURE and filled it with ZVIEW1 & ZVIEW2.
     4.Selected view ZVIEW1 and clicked on button "FIELD-DEPENDENCE" ,System throws a message
         "Field-dependence generated succesfully"
     5. Selected view ZVIEW2 and clicked on button "FIELD-DEPENDENCE" ,System throws an error message
         "No log generated".
      Am stuck up at point 5 in the above mentioned steps.
      Please guide me in coming out of this error message.

Najam

Hi Najam,
I don't think you need to define field dependencies for both tables, you only define the relationship from the second table to the first.
Double-click on the Field dependencies folder and check the link between the two tables is correctly defined, if so you don't need to generate the field dependency twice.

How to create EVENTS for a View Cluster.

Hi Tech Gurus,
I have created a view cluster on 5 tables. I need to do a validation and this can be done by using events. But i am unable to create a EVENT for the View Cluster. Could anyone please tell me how to create events for a View Cluster.
Thanks in advance for your esteemed replies.
Regards,
Raghavendra Goutham P.

Hello Pasapula
When you are in the View Cluster maintenance dialog (SE54) click on dialog "Events".
Below the field for the view cluster you have an additional field <b>FORM routines main program</b>. There you have to add the main program containing the FORM routines called by the VC events.
For example: I had defined a normal report containing an include with all the FORM routines. The report contains only the following lines of coding:
report zus_0120_u1.
* Common Data und access routines for user exits in VC maintenance
include LSVCMCOD.
include zus_0120_f1. "FORM routines for VC events
Now in the "Events" dialog of the view cluster maintenance you assign your FORM routines to the events.

How to restrict data from tables in a view cluster

Hi,
I have 5 Z* tables, Company code is the common code in all of these.
I have created a view cluster on these five tables.
My requirement is to viewcluster should display the data of the user's company code.
When i see the data in SE54 it is showing the proper data(i.e data which is related to users company code) for some of the tables.
And displaying all company codes data for some of the tables.
What can be the issue here ?
Do we need to map the data from proper data displaying tables to these tables ? if so How to do that ?
Please help on how i can solve this issue.
Regards,
Sunil Tata.

Here is a small utility that can be used to copy and paste between a table and Excel.
I have been obliged to slice the llb into small chuncks for internet technical issues. Sorry...

Se54 view cluster (display mode)

Hello, I created a view cluster and call it within sm34 transaction.
So, some users need to change that view cluster and some do not need to edit.
But even if I press display button in sm34 I can see Display -> Change icon, How can I make this button invisible.
In general I need to get 2 transaction:
1st -- for editing view cluster
2nd -- for displaying.
Please ask if I expressed my problem not correct.
Thank You

Kernal
I dont know if your problem solved or you still looking solution. What i can think about is you dont need to create any view cluster for display only. You can create views for that with display properties. Or if you need VC then embedd these views there you shouldnot able to edit as these will be only in display mode.
Let me know if you got any other solution.

Event in maintainance view not working in View cluster

Hello All,
            I have created a view for a student table, which contains three fields. The third field should be automatically incremented, based on the entries in the first two fields. The functionality is working fine in the view created, as i have used the event01 in
table maintainance generator->environment->events; with the codes for incrementing the third field automatically.
           After getting this functionality working, i have created a view cluster with the particular view also.
The problem now is that, when i try to enter values to the table via view in the view cluster, the same event is not functioning for auto-incrementing. While saving the entries, the third field is remaining blank.
The internal table 'total' which i am using in the view is displaying the table entries in the view created, but the same table is showing null value in the view cluster.
Can anybody guide me in this?
Thanks in Advance,
Shino.

Hi Shino,
Let`s say you have a table ZTEST_TABLE1. You create a maintenance view on it ZTEST_VIEW1. You generate the maintenance dialog for the view with Function Group ZTEST_FUGR1. After this you will be able to maintain the table from SM30 using view ZTEST_VIEW1.
You create view cluster ZTEST_CLUSTER1 and include your view ZTEST_VIEW1 in it. After this you can maintain the table from the view cluster as well. You then create a subroutine pool for the event routines like ZTEST_PROG1. In this program you include the program I mentioned: INCLUDE lsvcmcod.
Now you create the event 04 - Before saving the data in the database. You specify the routine name eg BEFORE_SAVE and assign the subroutine pool as the main program. There you create the FORM. Example code below.
I suggest to check the SAP Library, there you`ll find more details as well.

Events in View cluster

Hi .. i have a scenario where i created a view cluster with two tables/views.. so when i display data .. i dont want to see all the entries of my table.. i want to restrict data according to some conditions? how to do that? i have checked there are some events..but how to use it..i checked, but didnt get any help..i dont want to put events in my individual views, only in view cluster events? any ideas..

Hi
I don't think it can do it by event of the view cluster, but probably it cna't do it by event of the view of the single table.
If you want to load all data in according to certain condition, you should create a table view and insert your condition there and so create the claster view based on this table view

Display Description from Text table on View Cluster

Hello All,
I have the below requirement for creating a view cluster to maintain customizing data -
V_TAB_1 has been created for table TAB_1. TAB_1has a text table associated with it.
V_TAB_2 has been created for table TAB_2. TAB_2 has a field which has foreign key relationship with the key field of table TAB_1.
I have created view cluster using above views V_TAB_1 and V_TAB_2. Now while maintain the data using view cluster, description is no visible on the UI.
First Level of Data: This maintains the data in table TAB_1 and its text table.
Now, If I select any record and click on the sub node of the view cluster - Following appears
Second Level of Data -
If we look at the data in the second screen shot, description 'Nitesh' is not coming against the reason code '1'. this is highlighted in the second screen shot
I have tried to populated with Events as well. But could not succeed. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Nitesh

Hi
I try to see the data of CSKS by SE16 and I can't see the text field (my release is 6.00) but I can see that field by SE16N, so just the situation like yours.
Probably the fields of this table are too much, because SE16 can display the text field of other tables having a text table

Hi Rusidar,
You can actually use the transaction code SE93 to launch a view cluster. Say you have a view cluster: MYVC. Here is how you can create a transaction code to display this:
1. Execute transaction SE93.
2. Enter the desired transaction code in the input field, say MY_TCODE.
3. Click on 'Create' button. A 'Create Transaction' popup will open. In this popup, enter the short text for this code and choose the last radio among all radios which says "Transactions with Parameters ('parameter transaction')" and click 'OK'.
4. In the resulting screen, enter 'SM34' as Default Value for transaction. Then add the following two entries under 'Default Values' section (this section is located towards the end of the screen):
Name of screen field Value
SHOW X (means simulate click on 'Display' button
VCLDIR-VCLNAME MYVC ( This is the technical element that corresponds to the input field in the screen of transaction sm34).
5. Check the checkbox 'Skip Initial Screen'.
6. Save the transaction code.
Try running the code. If your cluster view already works via sm34, it should execute....
Cheers....

Hiding a Maintenance View in a View Cluster

Hello ABAP Experts,
We have a scenario where we would like to hide a maintenance view to an existing view cluster based on condition.
Is it possible via events of a view cluster, where i can hide the view at runtime based on some condition before the view cluster is displayed ?
Is there any way as well, which help achieve this hiding of views ?
For example in the below View Cluster, i would like to hide "Define object links" view from the main view cluster "Define document Types".
Thanks,
Naresh

Hi Naresh,
Yes, you can do it in events of a view cluster, define a subroutine and bounding it to event(02) in SE54,
when you define the subroutine, it will ask you creat a mian program, in this main program, you need 'INCLUDE lsvcmcod'.
Then you can access some standard data, http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/62/c302c7de8e11d1a5960000e82deaaa/frameset.htm
INCLUDE lsvcmcod.
FORM yourSubroutineName.
DATA: viewname TYPE vclstruc-object,
        error_flag TYPE vcl_flag_type,
viewname = 'ZTEST_VIEW1'.
* PERFORM vcl_set_table_access_for_obj USING    viewname
*                                       CHANGING error_flag.
----> according your condition to change the view.
IF xxx = yyy.
DELETE vcl_struc_tab WHERE object = viewname.
ENDIF.
ENDFORM.

F4 help for a field in item table in a view cluster

Hi All,
I have a view cluster with two tables. I should provide F4 help for field in item table based on the selected row of the header table.
F4 should have only values fetched based on the header table entry.
How can i achieve this. Please suggest.

Kusuma K.

Hi amar_war,
use screen painter to edit the screen layout where the field VKBUR is on. Double click the field to get the details screen. Here you can attach a search help to the field.
H_TVBUR has no more parameters, it will display a list of al sales offices with description text
H_TVBVK will also show the sales group, if VKGRP is a screen field, it will restrict the result list automatically on matching VKGRP.
H_TVKBZ has also VKORG VTWEG SPART - it will take those values from screen if filled.
If you are not satisfied with the results, you can easily create your own search help using own selection method and own search help exits if required.
Try standard search help for standard field first.
You can create a copy of VKBUR as ZVKBUR and attach search help there, you can create your own screen structure and attach the search help there - 50 ways to get your search help...

Clemens
