Fill user defined fields via batch input

Hello All,
In CJ01 I have added certain new fields using the enhancements CNEX0006 and CNEX0007.
Now I need to do a conversion to upload project system data to SAP, I am using BDC for that. The following is the piece of code.
      PERFORM bdc_dynpro   USING 'SAPLCJWB' '0100'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_CURSOR' '*PROJ-PSPID'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=MDTB'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING '*PROJ-PSPID' fs_proj_final1-proj_def.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'RCWBS-PROFL' fs_proj_final1-profl.
      l_proj_profl   = fs_proj_final1-profl .
      PERFORM bdc_dynpro   USING 'SAPLCJWB' '0998'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '/00'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-POST1' fs_proj_final1-post1.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'PROJ-PRCTR'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-VERNR' fs_proj_final1-vernr.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-VBUKR' fs_proj_final1-vbukr.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-STORT' fs_proj_final1-stort.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-PRCTR' fs_proj_final1-prctr.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-PRCTR' fs_proj_final1-prctr.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-PLFAZ' w_strt_dt.
New Fields
      PERFORM bdc_dynpro   USING 'SAPLCJWB' '0215'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '/00'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-ZZACC_EXEC' fs_proj_final1-
zacc_exec.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'PROJ-ZZBUS_DIR' fs_proj_final1-zzbus_dir.

      PERFORM bdc_dynpro   USING 'SAPLCJWB' '0998'.
      PERFORM bdc_field       USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=LETB'.
I am getting an error message -
"Currency copied from company code,No batch input data for screen SAPLCJWB

How to avoid this error? Please suggest.
Thanks

Creating User Defined Fields via DI API

Hello,
Has anyone tried creating User Defined Fields via DI without direct database intervention ? My add on relies on some UDF's that have to be created on install.
Thank you

I regularly use the UI API to do this. You can find several discussions on this forum. I have not put this in my installation program, but I use UserFieldsMD in the DI API and a CSV file from Excel to store the information about the fields.

SRM User defined fields -- can not input values

Hi,
We are using SRM 4.0. I have created a user defined field at the PO header according to note 672960. But I can not input anything to this field.
This is what I did:
1. in both structures INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF and INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF_PO add the append structure with the new field ZZCONTRACT.
2. in BADI BBP_CUF_BADI_2 created an implementation Z_BBP_CUF_BADI_2. In method MODIFY_SCREEN set: xdisplay = 'X' and xinput = 'X' for this new field.
This new field showed up in SRM, but it is greyed out. I can not type in anything. Could anyone tell me what I did wrong or what I have missing? Thanks a lot!

hi,
If you can see the custom fields,the problem is with the BADi implementation.You can write something like this in the method for the PO cust fields:
IF iv_doc_type = 'BUS2201'.
*Hide all customer fields
*Will change this coding if any other document type needs
*customer fields
      LOOP AT et_fields INTO wa_et_fields.
        wa_et_fields-xdisplay = 'X'.
        MODIFY et_fields FROM wa_et_fields.
      ENDLOOP.
     ENDIF.
Save and activate the implementation.

Pls reward points for useful answers.

User defined fields via DI-API

I want to read user defined fields using the DI-API.
The following code works but lists only UDFs defined for articles:
SAPbobsCOM.Items item =
(SAPbobsCOM.Items) GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oItems);
int count = item.UserFields.Fields.Count;
MessageBox.Show("count == "+anzahl.ToString(), "OK");
for(int i=0; i<count; i++){
MessageBox.Show("index == "+i.ToString(), "OK");
MessageBox.Show("name == "+item.UserFields.Fields.Item(i).Name, "OK");
If I try to list all UDFs defined in the system using the oUserFields object I get an exception when I assign the business object:
try{
SAPbobsCOM.UserFields ufd = (SAPbobsCOM.UserFields)
GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields); // exception
int count = ufd.Fields.Count;
catch(System.Exception ex){
MessageBox.Show("ex.ToString(), "OK");
The exception says something like
InvalidCastException: COM object of type 'System.__ComObject' can not casted into
interface type SAPbobsCOM.UserFields
Thank you for help,
Frank Romeni

Hi Vítor,
thank you for the hint to UserFieldsMD - now the access works.
You wanted to know what I am trying to do - let me explain the background even it is a bit complicated:
I have to access a certain UDF defined for articles.
To access this UDF I can't use a fixed index like e.g. '5' in
item.UserFields.Fields.Item(5).Value
because this index is 5 only on my local machine - it could be a different index on the target machine.
I solved this in writing some sql-code to access table CUFD and to find the index of this UDF in CUFD.FieldID.
But sometimes there is a problem when there are UDFs deleted from the database. It is possible that there are 'holes' between the FieldId of UDFs of one object, e.g.
Initial entries in CUFD (Table, FieldId, Name => code to access field):
OITM 0 'myUDF1'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(0).Value
OITM 1 'myUDF2'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(1).Value
OITM 2 'myUDF3'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(2).Value
After deletion of 'myUDF2':
OITM 0 'myUDF1'
OITM 2 'myUDF3'
Now the access to 'myUDF2' with item.UserFields.Fields.Item(2).Value fails!
You have to use index '1' in .Item(index) to access 'myUDF2' because this UDF is now the second UDF in the item object (zero based).
After I realized this I didn't use the sql-code to get FieldID any longer and searched with a loop all existing indices and compared them with the name of my special UDF, e.g. (this code works as expected):
public int getUDFIndex(string udfName){
index = -1;
for(int i=0; i<item.UserFields.Fields.Count; i++{
    if(item.UserFields.Fields.Item(i).Name == udfName){
      index = i;
      break;
return index;
Now I tried to make this method more general to find UDFs in any object - not only in item objects.
This is the background I wanted to access SAPbobsCOM.UserFields for.
The problem is that UserFieldsMD has no method like Item(index) as I used it in my example.
Do you have an idea to solve the problem with the 'holes' between FieldId in the UFD-table CUFD?

Update user defined fields in MARA using bapi_material_savedata

Hi,
I have this problem:
I am creating materials from a Z table filled by another application (not SAP). I am using the bapi "bapi_material_savedata" to create the materials and it is working fine. But now I need to fill user defined fields in the MARA table from this Z table, and this fields, are not filled after using the bapi.
I am using the bapi tables "extensionin" and "extensioninx".
I have modified the BAPI_TE_MARA structure adding the ZZ fields of the MARA and the BAPI_TE_MARAX structure with the same fields but different data elements. So I have this structures/tables:
BAPI_TE_MARA:
   MATERIAL - MATNR
   ZZDIM1   - ZZCHDIM1
   ZZDIM2   - ZZCHDIM2
   ZZDIM3   - ZZCHDIM3
BAPI_TE_MARAX:
   MATERIAL - MATNR
   ZZDIM1   - BAPIUPDATE
   ZZDIM2   - BAPIUPDATE
   ZZDIM3   - BAPIUPDATE
MARA:
..(standard fields of the MARA)....
   ZZDIM1   - ZZCHDIM1
   ZZDIM2   - ZZCHDIM2
   ZZDIM3   - ZZCHDIM3
Here is the code that i'm using to update the extensionin and extensioninx tables:
DATA x_bapi_te_mara TYPE bapi_te_mara.
DATA x_bapi_te_marax TYPE bapi_te_marax.
it_extensionin-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARA'.
it_extensioninx-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARAX'.
* the internal table it_material contains the data of the
* ZZ fields
MOVE-CORRESPONDING it_material TO x_bapi_te_mara.
x_bapi_te_mara-material = it_material-matnr.
x_bapi_te_marax-material = it_material-matnr.
x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim1 = 'X'.
x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim2 = 'X'.
x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim3 = 'X'.
it_extensionin-valuepart1 = x_bapi_te_mara.
APPEND it_extensionin.
it_extensioninx-valuepart1 = x_bapi_te_marax.
APPEND it_extensioninx.
Also i have an entry in the table T130F that i'm not sure i need.
Please help me to fill this user defined fields !!
Regards,
Jesus

I'm using both,
x_bapi_te_mara-material = it_material-matnr.
x_bapi_te_marax-material = it_material-matnr.
The first line is from the x_bapi_te_mara structure and the second for the x_bapi_te_maraX.
Thanks

Batch Input for user defined fields (SRM 4.0)

Hello.
Now in my project,we are developping Batch Input function about PO,CONF in SRM 4.0.
and in this time, we will use over 20 user defined fields.so we have to enter the value to user defined fields by using Batch Input function.
But if we will enter over the 10 value for user defined fields,we have to scroll the screen.
How do I scroll in SRM?(What's the command to scroll in SRM)

Opening User defined Fields Form via API

Hi
Is there a posiibility to open those user defined field - forms via API. If yes is it possible to check if it is already open?
TIA
Phile

Hi,
In your eventhandler, you can use this:
Set oSboForm = Sbo_application.Forms.GetFormByTypeAndCount(-pval.FormType, pval.FormTypeCount)
form and udf-form are linked through a minus sign.
I do not know of a nice way to check if they are anebled. What I'm currently doing is running the above line of code contained in an error handler. The error handler does a sendkeys of control shift u (which enables the udf-form) and displays a message. Problem is after control shift u, screen is not yet updated so your code cannot continue immediatelly. Development knows of this problem, but I never received a promise when this will be fixed.
Hope this helps,
Jacques

Issue while deleting user defined field in oim 11.1.1.3

All,
Made a mistake while creating user defined field called "Profile for" (loing to OIM -> advanced -> configuration -> User configuration). We are trying to delete it. It appears to get deleted from user attributes screen. But when we run LDAP User Create and Update Reconciliation Task we get the following error below:
oracle.iam.ldapsync.exception.ProcessLDAPReconDataException: oracle.iam.ldapsync.exception.ReconEventCreationException: Thor.API.Exceptions.tcAPIException: Profile for - LDAPUser object does not exists for resource object
Is any thing else need to be deleted adn cleaned up?
thanks in advance,
Prasad.

How do i check what resource object the recon task is running against. here is what i found so far.
I cannot find LDAPUser resource object when i query Resource Management -> Resource Objects in design console. Same thing with Manage Resource and search (here i only find Xellerate User, Xellerate Organiztion, USERS_GTC, and Installation) in OIM advanced administration menu.
The LDAP User Create and Update Reconciliation job itself has the following parameters (batch size, last change number, OIM employee type, OIM User organization name, OIM user type)
I also decompiled LDAPUserChangesReconTask and it is looking for LDAPUser metadata from MDS directly.
Prasad.

User defined field values doesnot show up in summary tab

Hi,
I have created my own stylesheet to display some of my user defined field values (associated with organization address book entry type) in the summary tab of the addressbook entry. But Groupwise 8.0 client FAILS to display any of the user defined field values in the summary tab FOR ONLY ORGANIZATION ADDRESSBOOK ENTRY types. NOTE: These organization addressbook entries are created using the C++ Groupwise object API. But the Advanced tab of these organization addressbook entry shows those user defined fields with values in it.
Also Groupwise 8.0 Client is able to display the user defined field values in the summary tab for the PERSON ADDRESSBOOK ENTRY types, that are created using the Groupwise Object API. Also when I create a Organization addressbook entry using the Groupwise Client (NEW ORGANIZATION) and fill in the user defined field values using the Advanced tab or that addressbook entry, the summary tab displays those user defined field values.
So there could be some problem in setting the user defined field value for the Organization address book entry using the Object API or it could be Groupwise 8.0 Client issue in displaying the user defined field values ONLY FOR ORGANIZATION ADDRESS BOOK ENTRY, WHICH ARE CREATED USING THE OBJECT API. I also tried to see the underlying XML data in the summary tab and that XML data is missing the USERDEFINEDFIELDS and CATEGORIES tag for the organization address book entry.
I would like to know, if there is any need for special handling only for Organization addressbook entry in Groupwise 8.0 API. Any thoughts or help is really appreciated.

Hi,
Does anyone have an idea?? Think I have the same issue. Except, when I log in the client (ver. 802) then all the info is displayed. But when the user logs in on the same client and the same pc, he sees the xml info except the office address.
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Grtz,
Joost Brenters

Want to add a prepopulated User defined field in create user form

Hi,
I have an entity adapter which will perform a pre-insert check on the user group of the user logged in to the oim.
If the logged in user belongs to a group say "IT ADMIN", another validation check will be imposed on the create user action performed by him.
If not from "IT ADMIN" group then create user action will be handled normally.
Now the catch is, how would I determine the group name of the user logged in from the adapter code I have written?
I decided to keep an User defined field "Created by" in the create user form which will be non-editable and auto-prepopulated with the group name of the logged in user. This way I will be able to map the variable field from the User definition drop down list while mapping the adapter variables.
May you please guide me how I can achieve this?
Would highly appreciate suggestion/inputs.

Thanks for all your replies!
However I am still in dark.
I tried to retrieve the groupname using tcUSerOperationsIntf. But iit tries to retrieve the group name of the user getting created.
Please note, the group name I want is not of the user yet to get created, but that of the user creating it i.e., the logged in user.
My requirement is to have this created_by field in the create user form already prepopulated with the group name of the logged in user.
So that I can put a check based on this field value in the netity adapter.
If the group is IT ADMIN then proceed with the validation.
Else no validation required.
In short, I want to know,how can I auto-prepopulate a UDF in Create USer form?

AIST0002-User Exit - Validation of user defined field

I have implemented the enhancement aist0002. I added a user defined field in a user defined subcreen and added it to the leasing tabstrip. I would like to validate this field against a another field in sap's leasing subscreen. In the pai of the user defined subsrceen the field of the other subscreen does not get filled. Is there a way to access the field of the other subscreen on the leasing tabstrip from the pai module of the user defined subscreen?
Thank you
Tom

Thank you for your response but I am not sure where the import occurs?
This is the pai of the user subscreen 9000 for AS01.
form edit_input .
data: itab type lfza.
if anlu-zzempfk is not initial.
    select * from lfza into itab
            where empfk = anlu-zzempfk and
                  lifnr = anla-leafi.
    endselect.
    if sy-subrc <> 0.
      set cursor field 'ANLU-ZZEMPFK'.
      message e007(zvalid).
    endif.
endif.
endform.
Function exit EXIT_SAPLAIST_002 include zxaisu03
looks like this:
anlu = i_anlu.
anla = i_anla.
Data gets moved to anlu or anla if it was already built. They are empty when it is a create transaction(as01).
Function exit exit_saplaist_003. include zxaisu04
looks like this:
e_anlu = anlu.
After the subscreen is processed it exports the data to global variable.
The problem is the pai module for the user subscreen 9000, the field anla-leafi is not filled. This field is located in sap's subsceen 1403. It has data in the screen field. My assumption is that it would be accessible as global data that could be used by my user defined subscreen once I began the validation in the pai of subscreen 9000.
Could you provide more insight on how I would access the field from the other subscreen?

Hai
Follow the bellow steps for creating User Defined Field Exit
Step by step procedure for creating Field Exits
There are eight steps to creating a field exit:
Step 1: Determine Data Element
Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
Step 3: Create Field Exit
Step 4: Create Function Module
Step 5: Code Function Module
Step 6: Activate Function Module
Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
Step 8: Activate Field Exit
Step 1: Determine Data Element
- Before you can begin adding the functionality for a field exit, you must know the corresponding data element.
- An easy way to determine the data element associated to a particular screen field is to:
Go the appropriate screen.
Position the cursor in the appropriate field.
Press F1 for field-level help.
Click on the Technical info pushbutton (or press F9) on the help dialog box.
On this Technical Information dialog box, the data element will be specified if the field is 'painted' from the ABAP/4 Dictionary.
Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
- The transaction to create field exits is CMOD.
- You can use the menu path Tools -> ABAP/4 Workbench -> Utilities -> Enhancements -> Project management.
- From the initial screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Text enhancements -> Field exits menu path.
- After choosing this menu path, you will be taken to the field exits screen. From here, you can create a field exit.
NOTE : Even though you use transaction CMOD to maintain field exits, you do not need to create a project to activate field exits.
Step 3: Create Field Exit
- From the field exit screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Field exit -> Create menu path.
- After choosing this menu path, a dialog box will prompt you for the appropriate data element .
- Enter the data element name and click the Continue pushbutton.
- Now, you will be able to create the function module associated to the data elements field exit.
Step 4: Create Function Module
- You will automatically be taken to the Function Library (SE37) after entering a data element name and clicking the Continue pushbutton.
- In the Function module field, a function module name will be defaulted by the system based on the data element specified. This name will have the following convention:
FIELD_EXIT_<data element>
- You can add an identifier (an underscore followed by a single character ).
- The first function module for a data elements field exit must be created without an identifier.
- To create the function module, click on the Create pushbutton, choose menu path Function module -> Create, or press F5.
- After choosing to create the function module, you will get the warning: "Function module name is reserved for SAP". This message is just a warning so a developer does not accidentally create a function module in the field exit name range. By pressing Enter, you will be able to go ahead and create the function module.
- Before coding the function module, you will have to specify the function modules attributes -- function group, application, and short text.
Step 5: Code Function Module
- From the function modules attributes screen, click on the Source code pushbutton or choose the Goto -> Function module menu path to the code of the function module.
- Here you will add your desired functionality for the field exit.
- Remember that field exits function module will have two parameters -- one importing parameter called "INPUT" and one exporting parameter called "OUTPUT". These parameters will be set up automatically by the system.
- You must remember to assign a value to the OUTPUT field. Even if the value does not change, it must be moved from the INPUT field to the OUTPUT field.
Step 6: Activate Function Module
- After coding the function module, you must remember to activate it.
- Use the Function module -> Activate menu path to activate the function module.
- At this point, you can return to the field exit transaction.
- You should be able to 'green arrow' back to this transaction.
- When you return to the field exit transaction, you will see an entry for the newly created field exit.
- At this point, the field exit is global. That is, it applies to all screens that use a particular data element. On any screen that uses the data element, the corresponding field exit function module will be triggered, once it is active.
- Also, the field exit will not be triggered yet because it is inactive.
Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
- This step is only needed if you want to make a field exit local.
- To make a field exit local, select the field exit and click on the Assign prog./screen pushbutton.
- In the dialog box , indicate the appropriate program name and screen number.
This information indicates that the field exit is local to the specified screen in the specified program.
- In the dialog box, you determine which function module gets executed for the field exit by specifying the identifier in the Fld. Exit field.
- If this field is left blank, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>'.
- If a single-character identifier is entered into the field, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>_<identifier>'.
Step 8: Activate Field Exit
- The field exit must be active for it to be triggered by the system.
- Activate the field exit by choosing the Field exit -> Activate menu path.
- After assigning the field exit to a change request, its status will change to Active and it will be triggered automatically on the appropriate screen(s).
NOTE : In order to activate the field exit the profile parameter abap/fieldexit = YES must be set on all application servers

Error -5002 when adding linked user defined field using DI API

Hello,
When I try to add a linked user defined field using DI API I get the error number -5002 with description:
"The field 'Related Table' should consist of 8 alphanumeric characters with no valid or default values"
I Get the error when I use the Add method.
What is the solution for this problem? I use SBO 2005 A SP1 Patch 18
The code I use is (.NET C# 2.0):
SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD uf = (SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD)company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields);
uf.Name = "S_BUCO";
uf.TableName = "OPOR";
uf.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Memo;
uf.SubType = SAPbobsCOM.BoFldSubTypes.st_Link;
uf.LinkedTable = "S_BU";
uf.Description = "Description";
uf.Add()
Regards,
Jeffrey

Hi Jeffrey,
Your code above does not match the settings you are using in the UI. In particular, the type and subtype you are setting in code are not correct.
To create the UDF via code, set the field types as follows:
SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD uf = (SAPbobsCOM.IUserFieldsMD)company.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields);
uf.Name = "S_BUCO";
uf.TableName = "OPOR";
uf.Type = SAPbobsCOM.BoFieldTypes.db_Alpha;
uf.EditSize = 8;
uf.LinkedTable = "S_BU";
uf.Description = "Description";
uf.Add()
There's no need to set the SubType property as you require a regular alphanumeric field.
Kind Regards,
Owen
