Table Maintenance Generator-Before Delete event not working with sort

Hi All,
I have requirement to sort the TMG for a custom table with non primary key and also to put condition for deleting entries, so that only specific entries can be deleted.
I did the sorting by adding MODULE SORT in the PBO of the Screen and providing the logic to sort EXTRACT and TOTAL tables with the required field. This is working correctly.
Also I used BEFORE_DELETE (Event 03) to unmark all entries selected, which is not satisfying the condition. This is also working as expected.
But, though they are working independently, these changes are not working together.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Savitha

Eventing not working with FLASH

Hello,
My VC application events will not work if i choose FLASH(Flex2) in the "Runtime" attribute of the Compiler settings.
Can anybody give me a hand with this?
thanks,
Alejandro.

Hi Alejandro,
Things to check:
1. Do you have the "Select" event coming form the table to display further info?
2. Does it work with Web Dynpro?
Did you know that if the compiler option is portal and on deployment you would see 2 deployed versions 1. HTML and the 2. Flex?
Let me know.
Good luck,

DELETE does not work with XP

Hi
I am using Apple Keyboard. The keyboard doesnot have backspace, but it has DELETE button only. I cannot use that DELETE button to lock the window or log in. Does any one have any idea.
Thanks

Hi Kuchel
Apple keyboards have a backspace key but don't have a "Delete" button like Windows keyboards. When your are in Windows (assuming you have the Bootcamp drivers installed), you can hold the "FN" key down and push "Backspace" and Windows recognises it as "Delete".

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.

Hi Abbu_sap
I am agree with Rock's answere.
go to utilities->table maintenance generator and delete it.
After it recreate it in a similar manner as you created earlier and save it.
it will work fine.
As I also do this every time I change the table and it works fine for me.
Thanks

Regarding table maintenance generator

hi
i have one scenario . supppose there are 4 fields in a table. user enters data into it using table maintenance generator. he enters data only for 2 fields remaining 2 fields should get populated automatically.
is it possible?

Go to SE11->Table Maintenance generator -> Environment->Modification-> Events
Here you can define events and the form routines that will be invoked on that particular event.
Say for example you want to populate details for the user who created the records, define the form FRM_CR_DATE (any form routine name) for populating the Create Details using event 05.
Event 05 is fired for "Creating a new entry".
Click on the EDITOR Button and write the following code for saving the user details while creating a new record.
*       FORM FRM_CR_DATE                                              *
form frm_cr_date .
ztablename-created_by      = sy-uname .
ztablename-created_on      = sy-datum .
ztablename-create_time     = sy-uzeit.
endform .
The current username, system date and time will be moved to the table work area for each record created.

EVENT problem in Table maintenance generator

Hello all
             I m working on 4.6C sytem. I m facing 2 problems in events in table maintenance generator
(1) I am using 04 event (After deleting records from table)   I have written BREAK-POINT in the Form .....ENDFORM... But the control doesnt stop there , when i select an existing record and press delete record button? not able to understand this
(2) When i implement even t 03( Before deleting records from table) , and select an existing record and press delete record button . Control successfully Go to corresponding FORM ...   BREAK-POINT ENDFORM .
But now the problem is.. in debuggin i can see the contents in TOTAL table but when i try to code LOOP at TOTAL ..ENDLOOP...it gives me syntax error saying " table TOTAL doesnot exists or not defined..but similar field TOTAL_S , TOTAL_M , TOTAL_L exists.. ???
how come i can see the same during debugging but cannot code it ?
Plese help
Nilesh

Hi Nilesh,
(1) I think the control will stop there after you delete AND save. Not sure about that but give it a try.
(2) I believe you are trying to access fields inside table TOTAL, is that right?
Actually you have to declare a work area with your Z table type.
DATA: w_workarea type ztable.
LOOP at total.
w_workarea = total.
endoop.
Then you can work with w_workarea.
Best regards.

I have created a event 03 in table maintenance generator. Because I need to check if the deleted key is still referenced in an other table.
I tried the following code, but only if I use the message the entry will not be deleted.

Event code in table maintenance generator

Hi All, Need to call event in Table maintenance generator of the z table. I have to use 1st event (Select ’01’ – Before saving data in the database). Need to do fallowing job: Table cleaning : Delete all records with value year =< 2011 -New rule : No save can be done with value (Pst Var, PA,PSA, Cost = ‘ *,*,*,*’). I am attaching table entry with this mail, I have written the code for this but not sure please suggest me modification if required for this.Because i have never done this before. Thanks and Regards Sankil

hi Sankil
Some variable is not available in your code and you did not modify EXTRACT table.
Try to modify your code as blow:
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

Table maintenance generator events

Hi,
I have created a table maintenance generator and want to populate sy-uname and sy-datum into two fields during SAVE. So I went to Environment -> Modification -> Events and selected "01" event i.e. "Before saving the data in the database" and entered Form routine as "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE". Then if I go to SM30 transaction it goes to dump.
Could you please tell whether I am missing any point?
Regards,
Balaji Viswanath.

Hi,
Pasted it below.
Runtime Error          PERFORM_NOT_FOUND
Except.                CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORM
Date and Time          01/31/2008 09:26:52
ShrtText
     Call (PERFORM) to a non-existent routine.
What happened?
     The current program attempted to call an externally defined routine
     that does not exist.
     Error in ABAP application program.
     The current ABAP program "SAPLZTEST321" had to be terminated because one of the
     statements could not be executed.
     This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
     The current ABAP program had to be terminated because the
     ABAP processor detected an internal system error.
     The current ABAP program "SAPLZTEST321" had to be terminated because the ABAP
     processor discovered an invalid system state.
What can you do?
     Print out the error message (using the "Print" function)
     and make a note of the actions and input that caused the
     error.
     To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.
     You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer
      termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion
     date.
    is especially useful if you want to keep a particular message.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below
    . The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORM',
     was neither
    caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure
     "PREPARE_SAVING" "(FORM)"
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception
     to occur, the running program was terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    The program "SAPLZTEST321" is meant to execute an external PERFORM,
    namely the routine "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " of the program "SAPLZTEST321 ", but
    this routine does not exist.
    This may be due to any of the following reasons:
    1. One of the programs "SAPLZTEST321" or "SAPLZTEST321 " is currently being
     developed.
    The name "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " of the called routine may be incorrect, or
    the routine "F_UPDATE_UNAME_UDATE " is not yet implemented in the program
     "SAPLZTEST321 ".
    2. If the program SAPMSSY1 is involved in the runtime error, one of
    the function modules called via RFC is not flagged as remote-capable.
    (see Transaction SE37 Goto->Administration->RFC flag)
    3. There is an inconsistency in the system. The versions of the
    programs "SAPLZTEST321" and "SAPLZTEST321 " do not match.
How to correct the error
    - Check that transports to the system are complete.
    - Conclude any developments already begun ("SAPLZTEST321" and/or "SAPLZTEST321
    - Check routine names
    You may able to find an interim solution to the problem
    in the SAP note system. If you have access to the note system yourself,
    use the following search criteria:
    "PERFORM_NOT_FOUND" CX_SY_DYN_CALL_ILLEGAL_FORMC
    "SAPLZTEST321" or "LSVIMF14"
    "PREPARE_SAVING"
    If you cannot solve the problem yourself and you wish to send
    an error message to SAP, include the following documents:
    1. A printout of the problem description (short dump)
       To obtain this, select in the current display "System->List->
       Save->Local File (unconverted)".
    2. A suitable printout of the system log
       To obtain this, call the system log through transaction SM21.
       Limit the time interval to 10 minutes before and 5 minutes
       after the short dump. In the display, then select the function
       "System->List->Save->Local File (unconverted)".

Table maintenance generator : EVENTS : please help me

I need to use table maintenance generator to maintain a custom table through a custom transaction.
I am using event BEFORE SAVE (01). It is working fine but small issues.
1)After entering new entries for some fields(KEY FIELDS), when I press save button, remaining fields values to be populated. Seletion statements have written in FORM of the EVENT 01 (BEFORE SAVE).
But the values for remaining fieldsare not populating immediately and but populating when I press BACK (F3). My requirement is with out presssing BACK or F3 , fields to be populated.
(note: SAP internal code..values are coming into TOTAL structure..then I manipulated this internal table)
PLEASE GUIDE ME, WHICH EVENT TO BE USED. importantly, which internal table/structure (like TOTAL we used for this requirement ) to be used for the proposed new EVENT? (Because lot of R&D to be done to find SAP structure)
2) second requirement is: even after entering new entries, if we press ENTER, then also it should behave like SAVE like in the previous requirement. Please help me to find the EVENT and Internal SAP generated structure (like TOTAL we used for this requirement ).

Hi Glen Anthony,
Thanks for replay,
I used foreign key relationship between those 2 internal tables....
I used event 05: When creating a new entry. I want to know the custom logic by which my 2nd Internal table gets automatically updated when i update my 1st Internal table
Thanks Glen.

Button "Position" can't work in sm30 when use Table maintenance generator

Hello guys,
i have created a table and use 'Table Maintenance Generator' to generate the code. When i run sm30 and click the button 'Position', it can not work.
i enter '/h' to debug it and find the value'POSI' is not assigned to ok_code.
Some tables created before are OK. What's the matter with it?
Many Thanks

hello daniel,
there is very possibility that some inconsistency might be occured while generating table maintenance generator. So i would advice u to create ur table maintenance generator once more after deleting the current one.
Reward properly.

How to forbid some deletes in table maintenance generator

Hey gurus,
I'm using table maintenance generator on my table and I would like to achieve that I could check whether to allow or not allow the delete action.
In other words I would like to forbid to delete those entries, which are referenced in some other tables, but I have no idea how to do it. I don't know where in the code is the Delete button is handled, or what to write in the right event to achieve my goal.
Can you tell me how. In details would be the best Thank you very much.
Best regards,
Robert

Did you add some foreign key relation between the maintained table and the dependant one, not a bad idea to add some...
You can also use Event 03: Before Deleting the Display Data create a form in your dialog. (Look for samples with search tool, e.g. Thomas's answer at thread event 03 in table maintenance generator)

Raymond
