Table Input field validation

Hi Experts
I have an OIF Application in which I have an Input enabled table and it is mandatory to enter the date range fields. When the user clicks 'SAVE', I have to validate if the start and end dates are entered in each record, and give an error message if blank. I wanted to know if I have to loop through each record and validate manually or if there is a better way?
Thanks
Neo

Hello Neo,
you can use the utility method CL_WD_DYNAMIC_TOOL=>CHECK_MANDATORY_ATTR_ON_VIEW to check for the mandatory attributes.
For this you need to set the STATE property of the inputfield (in the table column) to REQUIRED.

Input field validation in a Table based on the value of other column

Hi all
I have a table with 2 columns. column1 is of text view and column2 is Input field.
The user should not be allowed to enter a value in the column2 ( input field) greater than the value populated in column1(textview).
So for Eg; if the column1 is populated with value 100, The user should not be able to enter a number greater than 100 in the column2 input field.
Please let me how this can be achieved.
I appreciate the help.
Thanks

Hi,
Let me make sure u r working with table control.
First u have to create a event(VALIDATE) to do the validation.
Inside the event,
1. First get the current index where user has pointed the curson
2. Once u get the index read the internal table with index value.
3. Now u can compare the col1 and col2 values and populate the error message.
1. DATA : lo_elt TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
l_index type i.
lo_elt = wdevent->get_context_element( name = 'CONTEXT_ELEMENT' ).
CALL METHOD LO_ELT->GET_INDEX( RECEIVING MY_INDEX = l_index.
above code should be written inside the event.
Thanks,

Table Input Field Problem

Hi All,
I am facing a problem now where table row height is too big , as in 1 row size is actually a merged of 2 rows, the input field is shifted to the bottom of the cell. And when you select the row, an asterik is visible at the bottom row, and the input field is shifted up to the top of the cell. I am using customized iterator and cl_crm_ic_inputfield to render the cell. Anyone have this problem before?
Thanks!
Cheers,
cady

Hi Guys,
Some additional info i found on this issue. I am using design2003. I realized that the * added meant that its required field. However, upon further checking, when calling method RENDER_DESIGN2003 in class cl_crm_ic_inputfield, it checkes for me->required is not initial, which is kind of odd since the required field has the initial value of 'FALSE'. So , either required = 'TRUE' or 'FALSE', it will always be required field. Anyone encountered such problem before?

Table input field.

I have to create a table which will take input from user. I have created the context and binded it to the table. At the time of biniding with table i mentioned that these will be input field. But the problem is as the node has no value the table becomes uneditable.I have to give user 5 rows for editing. Can any one tell me the steps of creating this.
<b>If possible please provide the detail step & Sample code.
Points will be rewarded.</b>
Thanks,
Prosun

Hi Prosun,
If you want five empty rows in the beginning Insert 5 empty lines in an Internal table and bind it to the context. You can see 5 empty rows in ur table.
Also if u want to add an intial line to ur table when you press add button in the toolbar of ur table.
Provide a Add button linked wit action add
In Action :On action add
DATA: lo_new              TYPE REF TO if_wd_context_element,
        ls_employee         TYPE zemployee,
     lo_node type ref to if_wd_context_node.
lo_node = wd_context-get_child_node( 'NODENAME' ).
      lo_new ?= lo_node->create_element( ).
lo_new->set_static_attributes( ls_employee ).
do_main_node->bind_element( new_item = lo_new
                              set_initial_elements = abap_false ).

Dynamic Table Input Field - Disabled in runtime

Hi,
I have dynamically created a node. The node as a string attribute X.
Then dynamically created a IWDTable to bind to the node.
In the table I have a column, then a tablecelleditor of inputfield.
The inputfield 'value' is binded to node->X attribute info.
inputField.bindValue(attributeInfo).
Then I created a few entries of the node, populating X with some dummy value.
In runtime, my inputfields are disabled, and the dummy values don't appear.
I believe it is something to do with my binding.
Then I replaced the inputfield with a textview. textview text is binded to the node->X
attribute info.
textview.bindText(attributeInfo)
(i.e. exact same attribute info I used for the inputfield)
In runtime I see my textview with the dummy values.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?
Cheers,
Michael.

Hi Guys,
I think to be clear I better include my code here.
I did bind the table to the nodeInfo, and I did bind the textView/inputfield to the particular attribute.
As mentioned before, it does show for the textView, but not for the inputfield.
Create the new node:
          IWDNodeInfo newNode = wdContext.getNodeInfo().getChild("nodeName");
               newNode =
                    wdContext.getNodeInfo().addChild(
                         "nodeName",
                         null,
                         true,
                         true,
                         true,
                         false,
                         false,
                         true,
                         null,
                         null,
                         null);
Create the attribute:
               IWDAttributeInfo detailAttribute =
                    newNode.addAttribute(
                         "xyz",
                         "ddic:com.sap.dictionary.string");
Get the node
                         IWDNode specificNode =
                              wdContext.getChildNode(
                                   "nodeName",
                                   0);
Create the element from the node
                         newElement =
                                   specificNode.createElement();
Set the attribute value:
                              newElement.setAttributeValue(
                                   "xyz",
                                   "1234");
Add the new element:
                              specificNode.addElement(newElement);
Create the table now:
               IWDTable someTable =
                    (IWDTable) view.createElement(
                         IWDTable.class,
                         "TAB_ArticleQty" + articleElement.getArticleId());
               someTable.setEnabled(true);
               someTable.setReadOnly(false);
               someTable.setRowSelectable(true);
               someTable.setFooterVisible(false);
               someTable.setSelectionMode(WDTableSelectionMode.NONE);
               someTable.setVisibleRowCount(-1);
               someTable.bindDataSource(
               specificNode.getNodeInfo());
               TC.addChild(someTable);
Loop at all the attributes and create the column
The code for the textView has been commented out
The code is now for the input field
                * LOOP AT ALL THE ATTRIBUTES IN THE NODE:
                * CREATE ONE COLUMN FOR EACH ATTRIBUTE
               Iterator allAttributes =
               specificNode.getNodeInfo().iterateAttributes();
               while (allAttributes.hasNext()) {
                    IWDAttributeInfo attrInfo =
                         (IWDAttributeInfo) allAttributes.next();
                    String attrName = attrInfo.getName();
                              // Text View

Input field validation using JSP in HTMLB

Hi All,
How can we validate an input field in a form in BSP page.
Like: There are two input fields in my form.I want the user to enter value in any one and only one of the fields.If the value is entered in both fields or none of the fields the user should get a popup and form must not be submited.
Shall i use the onClientClick attribute of Button element or doValidate attribute of Inputfield element or validationScript attribute of From element?
Please help.

Input Data Validation Of A Field Associated To A Check Table

Hello,
Does Web Dynpro have an inherent functionality to validate input fields associated to a check table?
For example I created a structure with the field UNAME and defined USR02 as the check table for it. And then I defined a UI InputField in my View and bind it to UNAME. Web Dynpro does NOT seem to do an automatic validation to check if the value entered by the user exists in USR02.
Is there an interface or class that can be called in method WDDOBEFOREACTION to do the validation. Or do we just have to do some manual validation using SELECT statements?
Thanks.
Giscard

Hi Giscard,
Web Dynpro does automatic validation when you assign the check table .
You need not write any code as such.
If the data which you entered is incorrect ,when you are trying to perform any action(like saving the data in data base or performing any further action with the wrong data that ia entered )
the system throws an error message as"USERNAME -
NOT IN THE SYSTEM'.

Error in validation an input field in a table ui and high lighting the cell

Hello All,
I have a table ui in one of my application.   This table has, say 6 columns; out of these 6 columns 4 columns are shown as input fields. User needs to put in some numbers in two of the fields. I need to capture these two number fields data and subtract one from the other. If number is negative , I need to let the user know by error message that the number is negative and they need to fix their input to make the answer positive. I am able to do all this, but I am not able to high light the corresponding field which needs to be fixed. Is there anyway I can do that...I mean high light the particular field as one gets it when we use the "report attribute error message" method of message manager class.
Secondly I can not halt the application, I need to do some work around for that using some flags. Is there a simple way to halt the application, other than using flags and if condition? I searched this forum, but could not find any definite answer....
Thanks very much!
Any help would greatly be appreicated.

Hi....
First you should have the table values in an internal table.... for that yo need to get the values from the context like this....
*DECLARE INTERNAL TABLE AND WORKAREA.
data ls_nd_stru type wd_this->element_<node name>
data lt_nd_table type wd_this->elements_<node name>
get all declared attributes
lo_nd_<your context node>->get_static_attributes_table(
                                           importing
                                           table = lt_nd_table ).
*now your lt_nd_table will have the values.....what ever you have in the table.
*then
loop at lt_nd_table into ls_nd_stru.
<.....your logic.....>
<ie., read the current line of the field like
ls_nd_stru-<field name1> = ls_nd_stru-<field name2> - ls_nd_stru-<field name3>
then check error msg... based on your postive or negative values
endloop.
Hope this will help you....
Thanks & regards

Highlighting input field and table cell column in red colour

Hi,
       I have 4 input fields and a table in my screen. All the input fields are read only.
    I have a functionality where I have to highlight a input field with the red colour. In the sense, I have to put a thin Red border over the input field without thowing any errors or messages.
       Also, i have to highlight a particular cell in the table. i.e, i have to put Red colour border over the cell of the table for some rows only. Right now i have changed the background colour of the cell for required rows, but i need Red thin border rather than changing the entire background colour.
Please guide me on achieving these functionalities..
Thanks and Regards,
-Shabir Rahim.

Hi,
The red thin lines border you are talking about comes from the framework during the exceptions. If this is the case then refer the following links, hope this will help you.
[Re: Automatic message for inputfields with state=required]

Well without exceptions, i dont think it will come.

Add data to table view from input fields in a page

Hi
        I am developing a BSP page which will be called from SRM shop transaction. After user enters the line item data, data will be passed back to shop transaction using OCI interface and the page attributes (URL).
   (1) How can I add data from input fields to table view on a page on a button click? I am able to add first line but I could not retain first line data when I try to add the second line.
      I am able to add multiple lines to table view if I use view and controller by adding to the line data to static attribute of the controller. I cant use the controller and view because I can not set the attribute to Controller automatically.
   (2) Is there a way to pass an attribute (URL) to controller from SPRO? Like we pass an attribute to page automatically (Automatic page attribute).
   (3) How can I call a controller and view and pass the page attribute to the controller on a button click from a page with out controller?
Thanks
