Removing mandatory field checks

Hi all
We are working on ESS/MSS packages customization and we have a requirement where in we need to make a mandatory field in one of the screens, non-mandatory e.g. zip code in address information. I have the Webdynpro code of mentioned screen in my NWDS. Any pointers are welcome.
with thanks
amit

Hi amit,
The state of a webdynpro element can be set using
void setState(WDState value) in the implementation of your view.
Check the
IWDAbstractInputField
in
<a href="https://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/wd/index.html">WDAPI</a>
Attributes available
static WDState NORMAL
The normal state of a UI element.
static WDState REQUIRED
Indicates that a UI element must provide a value for performing a certain action.
Thanks,

Hi,
I don't think supressing through Global Personalization will change the business logic. Within the Business Logic it checks for the mandatory field.
After the changes I guess you need to make the changes accordingly.
The below link might be of some help.

Remove mandatory field from transaction KRMI

Hi,
In transaction KRMI, there are fields material and plant.
Material is a mandatory field. However, the user wants to see all the materials for a plant - not specific materials. They only want to enter the plant.
Is it possible to have material as an un-mandatory field? What are my options? Is guixt a possible solution?
If nothing else works, I would have to rebuild the report or copy & customize it.
Let me know.
Thanks.

Hi John,
SAP GuiXT resides at the presentation layer and defines the layout of the R/3 screen by series of commands in SCRIPT file.
SAP GuiXT is not the correct solution in your case, as this is machine dependent and you need to provide SCRIPT on each and every user machine.This can be only done in case your client has already implemented it.
You should try to find Screen Exit , if the same is not avaliable then proceed with creation of Z transaction.
Hope you understand it.

Mandatory field 'Business Area" in MIRO transaction

Dear All,
We are facing problem in MIRO transaction, while doing MIRO business area field is mandatory so we are not able to check our one substitution for Business area.
Request you to help us to remove mandatory field "Business area" from MIRO transaction.
Thanks,
Shree

Hi
Since the tick is appearing in this field, either the field status group (at posting level or GL level) should have been made mandatory. Can you please check the relevant FSG for the reconciliation account involved for that vendor.
Also since you want this field as optional only for testing purpose, i have a alternative suggestion.
Say, If your substitution is suppose to replace this field with business area A, then enter business area B there and check whether the substituition is replacing this with A again.

Mandatory fields in dynpro

Hi!
I have some mandatory fields in my dynpro, but i also have a option to fill data in the dynpro after filling 2 fields and clickin a button.
The problem is that if I click the button, it says that I have to fill the mandatory fields. Is there a way to stop the control-function only for this button-click?
i tried it with exit-commands, but so i don´t get the data from the 2 filled fields, because it only transports the user-command.
thank you in advance!
Andreas

Hii Andreas..
This is the Solution for u..
You are using the Module AT EXIT-COMMAND to avoid the Mandatory field checks. But in this module the Screen fields are not Copied to Program Variables.
Only the OK_CODE(SY-UCOMM) will be copied.
But you can read the Values of the SCREEN FIELDS by Calling the FM
DYNP_VALUES_READ
(This Fm reads the Screen field values even before they are transported to program)
EG:
CALL FUNCTION 'DYNP_VALUES_READ'
EXPORTING
dyname = sy-cprog
dynumb = sy-dynnr
TABLES
dynpfields = h_dynpfields
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
Let me know if there are any issues.

How to remove the mandatory field setting in output control

Hi everybody,
While printing a Payment Voucher through F-58 and FBZ5(reprint), there are two output devices, the first one is - printer for forms and second is - payment advice printer.
In our case we have configured the cheque printing and payment voucher printing seperately. The cheque goes to first printer(kept mandatory field) and the payment voucher goes to second printer. One of our plant does not print the cheque from SAP, they only print the payment voucher because the cheque is manually prepared. How do I avoid the cheque printing. Is there any way out to print only the payment voucher through F-58 and FBZ5
Please guide me how to tackle it or how to remove the mandatory field setting in the output control screen?
Regards
Paul

Hi
As of my understanding, there is no relation ship between the Sales Organization and this mandatory partner function.
Here are few suggestions.
1. Since Partner functions are defualted and made mandatory in the Partner Determination Procedure so you have to remove this Mandatory option for PE from the Partner Determination Procedure that is AG if using standard one.
2. If you are using a single partner function than , Copy and create a New partner procedure and a new account group . Where in one you can default PE as mandatory and in another one you make a optional where it can be choosen manually while creating the customer.
Follow the path to check for entries :
SPRO > sales & distribution > Basic Function > Partner Determination > set up partner determination > select for customer master > select the partner procedure you are using AG as standard > then partner function in procedure > here maintian the check as required like, Mandatory or No check for Non Mandatory .
Thanks

Check for mandatory fields while creating EP users using code .. :|

Hello All,
I have a code using which I can create user accounts/EP users on Portal, am working on EP6 SP9 & SP12.
My query:
1. From Portal's perspective -> While creating EP users, there are few mandatory fields like user-id, FirstName, LastName, Email-id and Password. If any of the above fields is null/empty, Portal would give us an error message.
2. From coding perspective -> Here, only the user-id is required. Even if I do not enter/fill any of the above mentioned mandatory fields (except user-id), user account is created.
In case wherein FirstName/LastName is not mentioned, Portal shows the userid in the Welcome Frame, i.e. Welcome <user-id>. Tried this by commenting the statements contains the methods related to setting/accepting FirstNme and LastName of user.
I want to know if this is all rite?
If no, then please guide me as to how can I set mandatory fields in my code.
Awaiting Reply.
Thanks and Warm Regards,
Ritu R Hunjan

Hi Ritu,
>>please guide me as to how can I set mandatory fields in my code??
In ur jsp file or in the controls code add the following attribute
<hbj:label id="userIdLabel"
 text="User ID"
 labelFor="userIdInput"
 design="HEADER3"
 required="true"/>
and to check the mandatory entry for that field do this in the submit button
<hbj:button id="insert"
 text="Submit"
 design="emphasized"
 onClick="save"
 onClientClick="if(!isMandatory()) htmlbevent.cancelSubmit=true;;"/>
and in the javascript write the client validation code.
Hope this helps.

Check duplicate data entry in multi record block,which is a mandatory field

Dear all,
I have a situation where i have to check duplicate data entry(on a particular field,which is a mandatory field,i.e. it cannot be skipped by user without entering value) while data key-in in a Multi Record block.
As for reference I have used a logic,such as
1>In a When-Validate-Record trigger of that block I am assigning the value of that current item in Table type variable(collection type)
as this trigger fire every time as soon as i leave that record,so its assigning the value of that current time.And this process continues
then
2>In a When-Validate-Item trigger of that corresponding item(i.e. the trigger is at item level) has been written,where it compares the value of that current item and the value stored in Table type variable(collection type) of When-Validate-Record trigger.If the current item value is matched with any value stored in Table type variable I am showing a message of ('Duplicate Record') following by raise_form_trigger failure
This code is working fine for checking duplicate value of that multi record field
The problem is that,if user enter the value in that field,and then goes to next field,enter value to that field and then press 'Enter Query 'icon,the bolth Validate trigger fires.As result first when-validate record fires,which stores that value,and then when-validate-item fires,as a result it shows duplicate record message
Please give me a meaningful logic or code for solving this problem
Any other logic to solve this problem is also welcome

@Ammad Ahmed
first of all thanks .your logic worked,but still i have some little bit of problem,
now the requirement is a master detail form where both master and detail is multirecord ,where detail cannot have duplicate record,
such as..........
MASTER:--
A code
A1
A2
DETAIL:--
D code
d1
d2 <-valid as for master A1 , detail d1 ,d2 are not duplicate
d2 <--invalid as as for master A1 , detail d2 ,d2 are duplicate
validation rule: A Code –D Code combination is unique. The system will stop users from entering duplicate D Code for a A Code. Appropriate error message will be displayed.*
actually i am facing a typical problem,the same logic i have been applied in detail section ,its working fine when i am inserting new records.problem starts when i query,after query in ' a ' field say 2 records (i.e. which has been earlier saved) has been pasted,now if i insert a new record with the value exactly same with the already present value in the screen(i.e. value populated after query) its not showing duplicate.................could u tell me the reason?and help me out...............its urgent plzzzzzzzzz

Check mandatory fields before saving

Hello,
In my Z-program, how can I check all mandatory fields in a dynpro before saving?
Is there any function to do that?
Thanks!!!

Hi alberto,
1. If the fields are mandatory (as set in the field attributes while designing the screen),
2. then we don't have to write any additional logic for the same.
The system will AUTOMATICALLY check for it, and issue appropriate message.

Check mandatory fields of view in ViewContainer

Hi Experts!
I created a view (main view) which containes a ViewContainer UI element. After a click on the main view I want to check the mandatory fields (with method check_mandatory_fields onview). But therefore I need the reference to the view controller which is embedded in the ViewContainer element. How can I solve this???
Thanks!

Hi
This is how I achieved it:
In DoINIT of the view which is embedded inside view container UI element I got the reference of view controller and stored it as a component controller public attribute
wd_comp_controller->mo_api_controller = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
Here mo_api_conroller is a comp controller public attr of type ref to if_wd_view_controller.
Now you can call your method like this in the main view
cl_wd_dynamic_tool=>check_mandatory_attr_on_view(
    EXPORTING view_controller = wd_comp_controller->MO_API_CONTROLLER
              display_messages = abap_true
    IMPORTING messages = lt_messages
Hope this helps.

Strange problem while checking Mandatory fields

Hi ,
I am checking mandatory fields with the method following method.
CL_WD_DYNAMIC_TOOL=>CHECK_MANDATORY_ATTR_ON_VIEW( VIEW_CONTROLLER = my_controller ).
It was working fine for mandatory fields and also showing one extra input field which is not mandatory with red border .
Please tell me how to avoid this and What could be the problem.
Thanks and Best Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
            the extra vield thats showing in re d will be a field that doesnt support blank entry. try commenting the method thats calling CL_WD_DYNAMIC_TOOL.
            CL_WD_DYNAMIC_TOOL=>CHECK_MANDATORY_ATTR_ON_VIEW will check only mandatory fields.. thats for sure.
   the error message thats showing on the optional fild is coming from some standard check

FPM - Check Mandatory Fields

Hi,
Could you please let me know, how can I do the required fields check in FPM?
I can do this requirement in a simple webdynpro application as below:
lo_view_controller = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
cl_wd_dynamic_tool=>check_mandatory_attr_on_view(
EXPORTING view_controller = lo_view_controller
IMPORTING messages = lt_messages ).
CHECK lt_messages[] IS INITIAL.
Please let me know how can I do the same in FPM?
Thanks,
Vijay.

There is really no guideline about that. You have decided to go for Dynamic UI elements and you have to find a way to validate them that is the price you would pay for doing things in Dynamic programming. You might have to rely on the looping of your UI elements and see if it is state is mandatory and go for validation in a dynamic way. Requires lots of programming and understanding of UI hierarchy.
