Fields update on Table maintenance generator screen

HI All..
I have a custom table with five fields. I did table maintenance generator on it. It has Screen 1 as overview screen and scree 2 as single screen.
Now of the five fields two fields are user name and date. When i enter data on the other three fields and save it on the second screen - iam able to update the two fields for username and date and display on the screen two itself.
But if iam not saving the data on the screen 2 and going back to screen 1 and then save it - iam not able to update the user name and date and also to display the username and date on the screen.
Any suggestions are helpful..
Thanks and will reward helpful answers.

In this case..
Iam having the functionality of SM30 through table maintenance generator.
On Screen 2- single screen - user name and date is working as i had written the logic in the relevant PBO and PAI module.
But if user is not saving the data in screen screen2 and coming back to screen 1- which is overview screen and then try to save it-- all other fields are getting saved except the username and date..
Thanks.

Include a field in the table maintenance generator

Hi All,
There is a Z table with MATNR and another numeric field and the table maintenance generator exists for the table. The requirement is to include another field for MAKTX ( Material description) in the table maintenance generator with input disabled. Is it possible to do the same in the table maintenance generator else please suggest me the best solution.
Thanks in Advance.

Hi Srinivasa,
This is quite simple, first add the field MAKTX into the Table and activate it .
Now again generate the Table maintainence for the table.
from Table maintainence generator go to the main program
there click the screen maintained for Table maintainence generator .
in the Pbo of the screen write the following code.
assume table name is table1.
Loop at screen.
if screen-name = table1-maktx.
screen-input = '0'.
modify screen.
endif.
endloop.
this will automatically disable the material description field in the Table Maintainence Generator.
This is will solve your problem

Add field in table maintenance generator screen of maintenance view

Hi,
I am having a table with field user-id. I want to generate a maintenance view which will have corresponding user name as input disabled field. Since there are two tables USR21 and ADRP I need to access(not a direct check table) I will have to modify the code generated by the table maintenance generator.
Problem is that it is having one internal table EXTRACT at table control loop. That internal table cannot be accessed if you write a module inside the table control loop and try to catch. The error coming as EXTRACT is not object of structure and therefore no component. I tried to capture the value of the Loop but could not be successful. Any suggestion please.
Thanks,

Hi Krishna,
A further to the above, you can go to SE11 and in the table maintenance generator click on
Fn.Gr.Text button, then go to Main program.
Here you will see "User-defined Include-files (if necessary). "
Just uncomment the PAI include and put your code..to make the field editable or un-editable.
To do that you might have to go to the screen painter and change that screen, to include those fields in a group or something, so that you can control them better.

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.

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!

Table maintenance generator for a custom table

Hi All,
I have a requirement.
I had created a custom table with 5 fields with partner_id as the key field.
I had generated the table maintenance for this.
But, when i maintain via sm30, the maintenance screen should display 7 fields, i.e
for the partnerid, the firstname and the lastname has to be display as the second and third column.
So, in the maintnenace screen sm30, i should have 7 fields display... but actually in real custom table, there will be only five fields (except firstname and lastname of partner).
Please guide me how to do this development.
Do i need to change the code generated via table maintenance and add these two fields in the table control and code to retreive the values for the firstname and lastname.
Please help me.
Thanks,
Jaffer ali.S

it is not a wise idea to add your custom fields in standard sap table maintenance generator screens..
each time you do a re - generate, (in case you added a new field in the table, or changed a data element, ) you will have to regenerate your tabe maintenance generator, and you will lose your code...
in this case, it will be better to create a custom screen with these fields and write code to populate the table..
or to make it easy, create a maintenance view with all fields required,
