Fields in a Maintenace View

Question

Hello Experts,
How can we make the fields in a "maintenance view" as mandatory fields? The requirements is I have created a maintenance view with 5 custom fields. And the business analyst wants to make all these fields as the mandatory fields i.e, without filling all the values for the first record, it should not allow them to enter the values for the second record.
Is it possible?
PS: I have tried to make all these 5 fields as the key-fields but as some of them are type "numeric", I am getting warning messages while activating.
Thanks

Hi Dev,
u can make any field mandatory by
parameters : matnr like mara-matnr obligatory.
or,
There are two ways to make this field mandatory
1) Check the SPRO settings with your BASIS Consultant
(Maintain screen fields for User Settings)
2) Modify the screen 100 for GUI program SAPLSUU5 use -Code SE51
or,
You can do this by using transaction variant ( tcode SHD0).
when you are creating the transaction variant just check the check box required .
for some tutorial help pls go through this.
