Hi ,
Table Maintenance generator is used to maintain data in table , instead of giving access to se11 , we create a tcode for this table maintenance generator and we will give this tcode to end-user to maintain data
To generate table Maintenance generator :
click on UTILITIES in menu bar
-> table maintenance generator
-> enter Authorization Group as : &NC&
-> Enter Function Group : name of your table ( so it will create a function group , to check this function group go to tcode se80 : then select function and enter your Table name )
-> Then click on find screen numbers in Application tool bar.
-> Then click on create button in Application tool bar
if it is created successfully , then you will get a status message like table maintained generator is created successfully.

Hi,
Table Maintenance generator is required to do Manual entries in the Table. If the requirement is to update the table only programmatically and not manually then table maint. generator is not required.
Manual entries in table can be maintained ( New record can be inserted / existing can be modified ) using transaction SM 30, if the table maintenance for the table is generated.
How to activate Table maint.
Goto SE11 and open the table.
Click UTILITIES -> Table Maint. Generator, Enter the details and click on Save. Then activate the table.

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.

Error while creating table maintenance generator

Hi,
I am getting below error while creating table maintenance generator.
Screen SAPLZtest 0002 could not be generated. In DYNPFIELD_ATTR field LENGTH has the invalid value 241.

But in the other table Iam using the standard data element(standard) of same type(241 char).In this table Iam able to create table maintenance generator without any errors.
And the domain Iam using is same for both the tables.
Please help me to solve this.

Objects created when creating table maintenance generator

Hi guru's,
I heard that when we creating a table maintenance generator for a table, it will create view,search help and some else.Is it true?
Please tell me what objects will be created when we create table maintenance generator for a table and why? what is the exact use of creating table maintenance generator for a
table other than reduces the time for entering large volume of data.
Regards,
Rakesh.

Hello Rakesh,
TMG is a tool meant and designed to maintain Customizing table/views. Customizing essentially means, that the data should be transportable across clients/systems.
All this, and the facility to maintain data (display, edit, create, delete, translate) is provided by the TMG. When you make the changes like above, the TMG also provides you features to automatically also enter the changes into transport requests.
Coming to what objects are created when you generate a maintenance dialogue -
1) A Customizing Object (merely a class C/G table or view does not become a
                                    customizing object)
2) A function group (as entered in SE54 details, if the function group does not already
                              exist)
3) Lot of coding within the function group (Func modules, subroutines, includes)
4) Screen(s) (1 or 2, depending on a setting in the TMG)
5) An automatic recording of all these objects into a transport request, for you to conveniently ship them to other systems in your landscape (this, if automatic recording is
switched ON in your system)
Authorization group - It is not created automatically (unlike function group). You need to specify an existing Auth group, or use a different functionality to create on of your requirements.
Does this answer most of your questions? Please revert if you need more clarifications.
Regards
Rekha
PS: Actually, why dont you try generating a maintenance dialogue for a sample z-table and see what all gets generated?

Problem in creating table maintenance generator for 61 fields in table

Hi Experts,
I am facing problem in creating a table maintenance genarator for a ZTABLE which has 61 fields
i am using below details whicle creating the TMG
in Maintenance screen
i am giving maintenance type as two step
Maint screen no overview screen 2
 single screen 3
Dialog Data Transport details
Recording routine standard recording routine
but it is giving following error
screen SAPL<ZTABLE NAME> 0003 could not be generated
In DYNPFIELD_ATTR mandatory field LINE has no value
please let me know how to sort out these errors.
Is there any limit on the number of fields for which we can create table maintenance generetor.
Thanks a lot in advance
Sudipto

Hi Sudipto,
There is not limit to the number of fields of the Table which can be used in TMG for generation. But, from the usability point of view this will horrible.
I created a Z table and added 64 fields and was able to generate the TMG with the screens perfectly. So, I guess there should not be any problem.
Well, have a look at the Function Group. I guess the screen numbers are already used by some other screens. You can set the system to propose freely available screen numbers from the pool.
Also, check whether proper authorization is assigned or not.
And if nothing is working, you can degenerate all the generated screens and then can have a new regeneration of it.
Hope these tips will work.
Thanks,
Samantak

Problem while creating table maintenance generator using two step

Hello All,
I have created a Z table in which I have 7 fields, out of which 6 are character fields and 7th field is of type INT4
Now when I create the maintenance generator using TWO STEP approach, the 7th field i.e., of type INT4 is not available in the first screen (the table control screen). This screen only has 6 fields for display.
But when I click NEW ENTRIES button, I get the next screen which has all the 7 fields.
But if I create the maintenance generator using SINGLE STEP, all 7 fields are displayed in the first screen.
Please suggest. Let me know if you require some more explaination.
Thanks & Regards,
Tarun

Hi Tarun,
Go to the layout and increase the size of the Screen. or at the screen attributes change the length and width values.
You know that initially the screen occupies default size only.
Hope this would serve your purpose.

How to see column in table maintenance generator?

Hi All,
Can we write code in table maintenance generator ? where can we write code?
suppose I have created table maintenance generator but column is not visible what might be reason? How to deal with this?
Can any 1 help me in this regard?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
column is not visible
This may be because of additioni of a new field in the table after you have generated the TMG.
Delete and re-create the object in TMG again.
writing code in table maintenance generator
Yes, you can write.
SE54 --> Environmnt --> Events --> New Entry
Select the event ..eg.
01 for Before saving the data in the database
02 for After saving the data in the database
Press enter. Click on the editor button and start writing your codes in the routine.

How to disable a field in the table maintenance generator of a table

dear experts,
i have created a table with 2 fields A ,B . i had created table maintenance generator for the table. i am entering the values for the table through table maintenance generator . for filed A i had given dropdown list which contains only 2
entries YES & NO. my requirement is if i select YES in field A , field B should be in enable mode(it must take some input), if i select NO in field A, field B should be in disable mode ( it should not take any input).
kindly help me....
thanks & regards
krishna

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.

Doubt in Table maintenance Generator

Hi all
I have created one table. That table contains following fields
MANDT     MANDT
ALERTID     CHAR6
COUNTRY     LAND1_GP
IDNO     INT1
ROLE     CHAR30
MODUL     CHAR2
LASTCREATEDON     DATE
LASTCREATEDBY     CHAR12
LASTCHANGEDON     DATE
LASTCHANGEDBY     CHAR12
when i creating table maintenance generator, the following log occured
" Field ZMMIN_ALERT_ROLE-ROLE shortened (new visible length: 000015)"
System Response
The generation continues, but field ZMMIN_ALERT_ROLE-ROLE is a rollable field with visible length 000015 on screen 0110.
meanwhile, i want to change field caption in sm30 for that table?

Hi,
Delete the table maintance generator once and regenerate the same.
for changing caption: you have to follow the below procedure:
In the table maintanance screen:
click on 'OVER VIEW CREEN'.
                   click on ELEMENT LIST
                         click on 'TEXT I/O TEMPLATES'
              here enter the title what ever you want. this will be reflected in the SM30.
i hope your problem will be solved,
Reward me if i gave right solution.
Thanks
Murali
