Regarding SM30

anybody explain when and where we use the SM30 and Sm31 transactions we use extensively?????
purpose of its use.........
good answers rewarded with maxi points........

HI.
SM30 is used for table maintainence(addition or deletion of records),
For all the tables in SE11 for which Table maintenance is selected , they can be maintained in SM30
Sm30 is used to maintain the table ,i.e to delete ,insert or modify the field values and all..It creates the maintenance screen for u for the aprticular table as the maintenance is not allowed for the table..
In the SE11 delivery and maintenance tab, keep the maintenance allowed..
Then come to the SM30 and then enter the table name and press maintain..,
Give the authorization group if necessary and give the functiongroup and then select maintenance type as one step and give the screen numbers as system specified..
Then create,,,
Then u will able to see the maintenance view for the table in which u can able to insert and delete the table values...
SM31 and SM30 can also be used to display and update table data. SM31 is an older version of SM30 that has less functionality. The input field on the first screen of SM30 is long enough to accommodate any table name; on SM31 it is only five characters long. Before you can use either one, a special program called a standard maintenance dialog must be generated for the table you want to display.
A standard maintenance dialog is an ABAP/4 program that you generate. When you invoke SM31 or SM30, the data browser will automatically find and invoke that generated program. It provides a more complex interface and more functionality than SE16. For more information on maintenance dialogs and the procedure to create them, consult the R/3 Library help.
SM31 is called Standard Table Maintainance Tool & SM30 is called as Enhanced Table Maintainance.
Both SM30 and SM31 use the same program SAPMSVMA. But not all Table can use the Transaction SM30.
SM30 can be use to Call View Maintenance
SM31 can Call View Maintenance Like SM30.
Thats why it is maintained separately in SAP R/3.
rewards if useful,

Regarding SM30 tcode autorization

Hi all,
We don't want users to use SM30 on this particular Z table so, we created a Z transaction which basically call SM30 and open up that Z table.
If users are not authorized to use SM30 tcode , can they use that z transaction which basically call SM30?
Your reply would be very helpful for me.
Thanks & Regards

Hello,
you can use the function module VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL this is the same that call sm30. There are no problems of autoritzation. You must create a program where you call this function with your view_name.
CALL FUNCTION 'VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL'
EXPORTING
 ACTION = 'U'
 VIEW_NAME = l_view_name
 NO_WARNING_FOR_CLIENTINDEP = 'X'
TABLES
 DBA_SELLIST = l_dba

Additional Question on SM30

Hello Everyone!
I just have an additonal question regarding SM30, will it be possible to sort the materials? and to unblocked the find function so that I could possible find a specified material?
Any help is really appreciated.

Hi
There is no FIND functionality supported in View Maintenance (SM30). You can use the 'Enter Conditions' option in the intial screen, or the Selections -> By Contents option to restrict entries.
Further, you can use the Position button.
All of them strictly follow a patter search, with literal values. Wildcard entries will not work.
Hope this helps!
Cheers

Unable to edit maintenance view in SM30

hi everyone.
need your help, I have one custom table, let's call it YTAB. This table has several maintenance views created for it, depending on company code. For YTAB, i have created a maintenance view YTABX.
When we moved YTABX to PRD, we cannot edit it in SM30. The user ID has the right authorization. The error message is "client 100 not modifiable". When I try to edit the mother table YTAB in PRD, I am able to go in and do the changes.
I have already compared the settings for YTABX with the other existing views, they are the same. My settings for the view are:
Access: Read, change, delete & insert
Delivery Class: C
In the table maintenance generator, i have a 2-step maintenance type, recording routine is Standard recording routine and compare flag is automatically adjustable.
Attributes for table YTAB also has delivery class C, table category is transparent table, table maintenance is allowed.
Thank you in advance.

Hello roch,
the direction in which mark points is right but i think you should get some more information on the principles of table types and sap system landscape.
Usually you should not be able to directly maintain any table. This is not only bad style but also a huge risk for the system consistency. That's why application data is always maintained via some kind of application which ensures that the data is vilidated before it is stored.
Customizing data should only be maintained within a development system and then transported through the landscape. To maintain these table you can use generated views, customer developed maintenance views, view clusters which all include automatical link to the transport system. If you would maintain these tables directly in the productiion system it would have another configuration than the development and the quality/test system which makes them more or less useless as you can no longer make any serious test if the server configurations differ.
To prohibit changes of customizing tables on production and test servers the admins lock the systems which results in the message you got. This setting is made in TCODE SCC4. Even if you have for any reason the authorization to use this transaction you should in no case change these settings without approval of basis / system owner.
Kind Regards
Roman

Few questions regarding Training and event management

Dear All,
Can you please help me with the following queries regarding Training and Event Management:
1. How to freeze a completed business event so that no changes to its record (like delete/update attendee details or event detail) is possible?
2. How to get feedback from attendee/faculty with a predefined format with rating (1-4 scale)
3. How to maintain department and category wise training man/hrs or training man/days?
Any help will be appreciated.
Regards,
Toa

Hi Toa,
1. Run report RHHISTO0 via SA38. Once the business event is flagged as "historical" no further changes can be done.
3. SM30 - T77S0 - Make the following swtiches active:
SEMIN AINST
SEMIN APART
Then when events are followed up, these training data is recorded to employee 2002 infotype. You can report on it via PT90 (for department-based selection use "Further selections")

How can I maintain two tables content at the same time with SM30

Hi all,
I created two customizing tables that I would like to link together for maintenance in SM30. Table 1 is the header and table 2 can have multiple detail records.
They are linked via the ID key field. I would like to run the Table Maintenance Generator on the first table in SE11 and be able to maintain both table data at the same time in SM30.
How can I do that without any ABAP programming? Should I use Append or Include structure or else?
Thank you for giving as much detail as possible.
Regards,
Sylvain

Hi,
You cant do it w/t abap programing.
You can code in "EVENT" to achive the same.
Open table maintainance generator of first table through se56 or se11.
follow the path: environment>Modification>Event.
Select sutaible event from drop down like Before Save... and do coding.
In this way data will be saved in second table automatically when you save in first table.
In case of any query, please revert.

How to capture the data that the user modified in SM30(Maintenance view)

Hello experts,
I have a new requirement wherein when the user modifies a particular record in SM30(maintenance view)
it would also update that certain records in another table. For example, I modified the address
of record 1 in table1 so I need to automatically update that same record in table2. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Again, thank you guys and have a nice day!

Hi again,
1. But how can I capture the data that was modified
Yes, u are right.
We will have to use the event,
'BEFORE SAVING'.
2. In that,
u must fire a select query,
   from the same table,
   for the same record.
3. In this, u will get the OLD DATA (which was already saved),
4. Using this,u can compare,
   (either thru LOOP, or field by field)
to know, which field value has been changed.

Do like this.
1. Go to SE11 -> give your table name and press on change button .
2.Go to Menu->Utilities-> Table Maintainance Generator , then it will take you another screen .
3.Assign Functin group if already have one , other wise create function group and assign
4.Go to Menu->Environment->Modification->Events , again it will take you to another screen
5.Click on new entries
->Now press F4 in T column . Select "01" - Before saving the data in the database and in form routinue give any name of the routinue like "SAVE_USER_DATA" and press enter then u can see an editor symbol in next column click on that it will take you ABAP editor there type this code .
ztable-username = sy-uname.

How can we hide the non key field values in the sm30 display

hello experts,
I have to protect the non key field values in the sm30 display , can u help me out wat changes i have to do in the layout.

Hello Gopal,
What do you mean by 'protecting' your non-key field value?
1) You want to display it, but make it non-changeable
A - Make the field as output-only in screen, as already answered by a preivous collegue
2) You do not want to display this field at all
A - Goto the DDIC definition of the view (not possible for a table directly), and maintain the required field as a Hidden. After activating, remember to re-generate the maintenance dialogue. Also, please maintain Event 21, in case you want to access/change the value of this field in background.
3) You want to maintain special validations/checks for the field
This can be easily done by introducing your modules within the CHAIN-FIELD commands in the PAI of the generated screens.
Best Regards,
Rekha

HI
endor Evaluation for Purchasing
Define the weighting keys in SM30 - V_T147J.
Weighting keys 01 and 02 are defined in the standard system. You combine the following
weighting shares for the standard main criteria:
Main criterion     Key 01 Key 02
Price                   1      5
Quality                 1      5
Delivery                1      2
Gen. service/support    1      1
Ext. service provision 1      2
Define the criteria in SM30 - V_T147G - Double click on the line items
In this step, you define the criteria by which the system computes scores for vendors and
specify whether the scores for the subcriteria are computed manually, semi-automatically, or
automatically.
You can also store your own methods of computation for the scores for subcriteria in the
form of user exits. The enhancement MM06L001 is available for this purpose.
Define the scope of list in SM30 - V_T147M - Double click on the line items
Define Purchasing Organization data for vendor evaluations in transaction OMGL.
An example :-
How the system calculates the score for the automatic subcriteria
"On-Time Delivery Performance"?
The system uses the statistics-relevant delivery date in the purchase order
(Items -> Delivery Schedule) and the goods receipt date to calculate date variances.
You use the statistics-relevant delivery date, for example, if you know that the vendor
will not deliver the material as scheduled on September 15 but on September 30. Enter the
delivery date as September 30, but enter the statistics-relevant delivery date as
September 15.
In calculating the score for on-time delivery performance, the system will then not use
the actual delivery date, but the statistics-relevant delivery date. This has a negative
effect on the score for this goods receipt.
However, materials planning and control uses the realistic delivery date (September 30)
which the vendor will actually adhere to.
The system considers only goods receipts against purchase orders and scheduling agreements
into stores and the release of GR blocked stock into stores. In the standard system, these
are the movement types 101 and 105.
Minimum Delivery Percentage - OMGL in the On-time delivery section
If you do not want a vendor to receive a very good score if he delivered the goods on time,
but did not deliver the required quantity, you can maintain a minimum delivery percentage
in Customizing.
Assume you set the Min. del. perc. parameter to 60% and the vendor delivers the goods on
time, but only 55% of the ordered quantity. Although the goods receipt is punctual, it is
not included in the calculation of the vendoru2019s score for on-time delivery performance. So
that the non-scoring of the on-time delivery performance criterion in this case does not
bring an unfair advantage in comparison with a poor score, the vendor is awarded a low score
for quantity reliability. On-time delivery performance is thus always to be seen in
conjunction with quantity reliability.
Standardizing Delivery Date Variance - OMGL in the On-time delivery section
To rate delivery date variances in days, maintain the Std.del.time var. parameter.
If you assign a lower standard value, this means that relatively low date variances produce
high percentage variances. If you set a higher standard value, this results in a relatively
low percentage variance:
The Std.del.time var. parameter has the value 20. The goods receipt took place on Nov. 27;
the statistical delivery date was Nov. 15. There is thus a difference of 12 days.
The system calculates the percentage variance as follows:
12 / 20 x 100 = 60
If the Std.del.time var. parameter had the value 60, the variance would be 20%
(12 / 60 x 100 = 20).
If you do not maintain this parameter, the system calculates the delivery time variance via
the firm zone in the case of scheduling agreements, and via the order date and the
statistics-relevant delivery date in the case of purchase orders.
