Table Maintenance events and field focus

Hi all,
In event 01(save data) of table maintenance, I have the code to ensure some fields are not left blank:
When testing the creation of table records in SM31, it gives me the error msg successfully, but after that greys out all fields in that row except the primary keys.
- My primary keys are already filled.
- The mandatory field that must be filled is not filled yet, but is greyed out after the error message is given.
How can I avoid this and set focus on the mandatory non-key field?
My code as follows:
***INCLUDE LZBUSICONNF03 .
FORM CHECKMANDATORYFIELDS.
IF ZPWHPO_INC-HPO_NAME IS INITIAL.
* Enter company code
MESSAGE e100(ZBUSICONN_MSGCLASS).
ENDIF.
* Validation of COMPANY_CODE
* IF TABLEN-company_code IS INITIAL.
ENDFORM.

Hello,
To check on not key fields, you can modify the "Maintenance screens". There you can use the logic as in any other dialog program and add you own check in a PAI module.

How to use the table maintenance events for validating the input entries..?

Hi,
I have created a Z table with 6 fields in which all are KEY fields. All are of CHAR type. I have created the Table Maintenance Generator for the same. While maintaining the entries in the table, even though I maintain a blank entry for a field it is saving the entry. But, I don't want that way. All the fields are mandatory in my table. One should enter all the fields. Otherwise it should not allow to save the entry. So, I think it can be done using the Table Maintenance Events. can someone tell me how to use the Table Maintenance Events. and which event to use for my reuqirement and what is the logic to be written.
Or Is there any other way to solve my problem.
Please share your inputs. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
paddu.

In the table maintenance generator, Environment --> Modifications --> Events then a screen will be appear here,we need to create the Events.In the EVENTS screen, press new Entries, there give 01(Before Saving the Data in the Database) and give a name(This will become a PERFORM), then click the Editor pushbutton, this will be there at the right side of the entry, then a popup will be appear, you can create an include program, there inside of the include program write ur code.
Here is documentation for Event 01(Before Saving the Data in the Database )
Event 01: Before Saving the Data in the Database
Use
This event occurs before new, changed or deleted entries are written to the database. Other activities can be performed, for example:
hidden entry processing
fill hidden fields
flag data to be written to hidden tables after the database change.
To have the changes saved by the central maintenance dialog routines, SY-SUBRC must be set to 0 at the end of the routine.
Realization
This event has no standard routine. The following global data is available for the realization of the user routine:
internal table TOTAL
field symbols
field symbols <ACTION> and <ACTION_TEXT>
<STATUS>-UPD_FLAG
If internal table data are to be changed before saving, t he changes should be made in both the internal table TOTAL and in the internal table EXTRACT.
FORM abc.
DATA: F_INDEX LIKE SY-TABIX. "Index to note the lines found
LOOP AT TOTAL.
IF <ACTION> = desired constant.
READ TABLE EXTRACT WITH KEY <vim_xtotal_key>.
IF SY-SUBRC EQ 0.
F_INDEX = SY-TABIX.
ELSE.
CLEAR F_INDX.
ENDIF.
(make desired changes to the line TOTAL)
MODIFY TOTAL.
CHECK F_INDX GT 0.
EXTRACT = TOTAL.
MODIFY EXTRACT INDEX F_INDX.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
SY-SUBRC = 0.
ENDFORM.

please help.

Hi,
create method -
>before saving data.....write the logic between the method
go to utilities->table maintanance ,,,after creating generator ---go to envirnment->modification->events.

Problem with table maintenance event

Hi Experts,
In the table maintenance event 05 for a ztable, I have written logic to validate if few key fields and non key fields are not initial.
If they are initial,need to throw an error message and it has to stay in the same screen.But right now it grays out the non key field.
Tried the combination of events 01 and 05 it grays out the key field.
Please let me know if there are any ways to achieve this without making modifications in the PBO or PAI of the ztable.
Regards,
Sridevi

I have this exact problem, why is this thread 'closed'? Is there an answer provided somewhere?
I have found a topic which shows an information message, which claims that the data is not saved.
But it does save the data if you use an information message and blocks non-key fields when using an error message
so this problem is still open for me.
Does anybody have a solution?
Ah an answer was indeed provided in another topic:

Table maintenance events

Hello,
Does anyone has a code example of table maintenance events?
I have a custom table ( zitab ) , with a maintenance view in SM30. I would like to use the table maintenance events for some authorisation check before the data is displayed, then, depending on the authorisation, display what the user is authorised to see. After data input, perform validation, if errors occur, inform the user what the problem is, if not, save in tha z table.
Can this be done in sm30 or I need to write a new program?
Thank you!

Can someone please explain me why I have this short dump (before save event)?
Error analysis
    The statement
      "MOVE src TO dst"
    requires the operands "dst" and "src" to be comvertible.
    Since this statement occurs in a Unicode program, the special
    convertibility rules for Unicode programs apply. In this case, the
    following rules have been broken:

In all examples that i read on this forum this code works, I don't know why it fails for me.

Issuing an Error in Table Maintenance Event

Hi,
How can I issue an error in the table maintenance event without exiting the screen.
When an event is triggered (Before Save), it will perform a check in the data changed or created. It will issue an error when the changes are not correct. But when I press enter or click on the check button, it will exit the table maintenance screen.
What do I have to do in order to issue an error but will still go back to the table maintenance view.
Making the message as information or type I, will not work because it will still save.

Hi,
I came to the same problem, maybe this will help someone.
You can move check into view cluster event.
1. load the view
     PERFORM vcl_set_table_access_for_obj
          USING 'view'
          CHANGING error_flag.
2. assing to structure
     LOOP AT <vcl_total> INTO ls_view
3. perform check, set VCL_STOP which will stop saving and will display message
     VCL_STOP = 'X'.

Events in Table Maintenance - How validate fields and deliver error message

Simple transparent table. I have generated one step table maintenance. I use a view variant to make some fields display only. I would like to use Events to provide some validation. For example: If field STATUS = 'T', then field QUANTITY must be > 0.
So far, I have tried events 05 and 21. When the user tries to enter a new row, I can issue an error message that is returned to the screen. The problem is that the screen is no longer typeable, i.e. the user cannot correct the error. They have to exit and start over.
Is there a different event or different coding I should provide to open up the screen for typing?

Hi,
Tried 'message type 'I' display like 'E''', in event 5 and 21. The non-key fields are now typeable but the validation is not enforced, i.e. you get a message that you must enter a QUANTITY but you can save the row without entering a QUANTITY.
Yes I was afraid of that... that's why I would use the event 01 (with 05, if user still tries to save invalid entries, 01 will block). Normally when you get the error and press the ENTER key, you should get back to your table in edit mode... Well this is happening on my system...
I'll let you know if I got a better idea...

Manu.

ABAP Table Maintenance Events

Hello All ,
I have created the Table Maintenance with Events .
When the user enter the sales order number & item in the Txn code screen of the table .The Event 05 triggers & pulls out information for Sales Order Customer ,Material ,Plant & show it in the screen .
There are two more fields for user input Valid to & Valid from , the user now fills in these fields & then press Save button in the screen .
Now He gets the Short dump related to duplicate entries .
I checked the standard code & it is trying to enter data into the Internal table
MOD_ELEM_TAB & since already the same entry exsist in this table so program dumps out .
Kindly suggest the way to solve this issue .
Best regards,
Anurag Goel .

Check with table primary keys and if you are creating same data again and again,
then you will get short dump..
so keep the validation like if record already exits then give message.
else you want to create same data again and again then create one more field and it is like count (keep as primary key ).
Reward Points if it is helpful
thanks

Hi,
Use this FM instead of Move statement.. In Unicode environments the left and right operands should be of same data type. to over come this you can use the below FM
   CALL FUNCTION 'HR_99S_COPY_STRUC1_STRUC2'
          EXPORTING
             P_STRUCT1       = total
        IMPORTING
             P_STRUCT2       = fs_zsdslsbud.

To find out the Table of Origin and Field in Table of Origin.

Hi Experts,
I am in the middle of completing someone else's documentation after a handover.
Here are th columns that I need to update in the documentation:
1) Field in Extraction Structure 2) Description of Field in the Extraction Structure 3) Table of Origin 4) Field in Table of Origin
Most of them are already done. There are only four tables from which all these fields originate.
Could you let me know how should I find out where a field has originated from.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Chandu.

Hi,
it will depend on the datasource: you'll to do the hereunder in the source system
- if LO/LIS (2LIS....) you can goto LBWE, extract structure maintenance; in the filed selection screen you'll see e.g. "MCtttt ffffff text"; usually the tttt is the table and ffffff is the field. Cross check if the field is really in the table via SE11.
- if generic, then goto RSO2 and then it will depend if it is a view/table/domain; double click on it or goto SE11; if infoset SQ01; if extract structure then you'll have to analyze the function module extractor ABAP code;
- for others it will depend....
hope this helps...
Olivier.

Extended Table Maintenance Events - 22

Dear Friends,
I'm trying out writing the Event 22 - Go to Long Text Maintenance for Other Languages. I have written the code in the particular interface format:
FORM xxxxxxx USING M_MODE
CHANGING TEXT_WA MODIF.
After activating also it is not appearing in the table maintenance. Please suggest something.
Regards,
Deva.

Hi Divya,
whenever you attatch event in the table maintenace, you have to take care of the following points :
1. The table and the function group should be activated.
2. The form routine name should be the same what you entered in the column against the event number under the form routine ( t-code : se55).
I did attatch the event no. 22 and it is activated ..and i can see in my table maintenance.
Regards,
Kunal.

Extended Table Maintenance Events 05: Original line when copy entry?

Hello,
in the Extended Table Maintenance <b>Events 05</b> I want to <b>copy</b> my own tables. For that I need to know not only the newly created line, but also the original line which was the template for the copy.
I know this line is contained in table EXTRACT, but how do I identify it?
Is there an index pointing to the "old" line inside EXTRACT?
Is there a work area containing the old line?
I thought workarea EXTRACT contains the old line and <TABLE1> the new line, but debugging proofed that both are the same.
Any idea?
Best regards,
Cedric

Any body can help me?

Reg. table maintenance generator and function group

I am trying to create a table maintenance for a custom table. It is asking for a function group. Should I create a new function group for each table maintenance I generate?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Hi Krishen,
You can also assign authorization groups to tables to avoid users accessing tables using general access tools (such as transaction SE16). A user requires not only authorization to execute the tool, but must also have authorization to be permitted to access tables with the relevant group assignments. For this case, we deliver tables with predefined assignments to authorization groups. The assignments are defined in table TDDAT; the checked authorization object is S_TABU_DIS.
You can assign a table to authorization group Z000. (Use transaction SM30 for table TDDAT) A user that wants to access this table must have authorization object S_TABU_DIS in his or her profile with the value Z000 in the field DICBERCLS (authorization group for ABAP Dictionary objects).
Please check this link for more info.

Table maintenance generator and Change pointers

If a Ztable contains table maintenance generator, then the change pointers will not work?

Hi Saraoja,
If you want make active your change pointers for your Ztable, then in your Zfields, get into the Data element and click futher Characteristics tab, there you have one check box called Change document, Check that box and activate your data element again.Now your Zfield changes will reflect in CDHDR and CDPOS.
Thanks
