UDF Mandatory

Hi all,
In UDF, can we create Mandatory fields?
eg: if we are adding inventory transfer we need to set particular UDF field as mandatory, if we forgot to add that field it need to show error? is it possible?
Remarks: i know by Customization Tools , mandaory field.
i want to enter data manually or by FMS?
Thanks

Hi,
you can do it through SP transaction notification.
Try following code (For example at Sales Order)
UDF Mandatory at Sales order----
IF @transaction_type IN (N'A', N'U') AND @object_type = '17'
BEGIN
If exists
(Select t.U_AB From RDR1 t
Where t.DocEntry=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del and t.U_AB = '-')
Select @error = 1,
@error_message = N'UDF is must '
END
You can change object type ,udf name and tables as per your requirment.

Making UDF Mandatory

Hello Experts,
I want to make this UDF mandatory in my item master data. I was referring to: Making UDF's Mandatory .. I tried the code given there and it works!
However, I also want to make another UDF mandatory in the Business Partner Master Data. I used the same code but it didn't work:
IF @transaction_type = 'A' AND @object_type = '4'
BEGIN
If exists (SELECT T0.CardCode FROM OCRD T0 where T0.U_Telno is null and T0.CardCode=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
begin
SET @error = 10
SET @error_message = N'Please Fill In Telephone Number'
end
END
Where did I go wrong? Thanks in advance!

After reading through some forums on SP, I went on to change the Object Type to 2 and redo the UDF and it works fine now.

UDF mandatory based on item group?

Hello -
Can someone help me make a user defined field in the BP mandatory only when certain item groups are selected on a sales order? The idea is that we have some products that we sell which require a license to obtain. I would like to force my employees to enter that information (license number and expiration) in the BP if one of those items is selected, knowing just eh groups of items is enough. Ultimately it would be even much better if the expiration date of said license was check for validity as well...but I'd be happy enough knowing that the license was at least referenced.
Looking forward to your help!
Best regards,
Rob

I assume the UDF-s are row level UDF-s, because they are connected to the item.
You need two FMS to set the row level UDF-s according to the item and partner and some code in the SBO_SP_TransactionNotification procedure to prevent adding the document, if it contains an overdue expire date.
With your real UDF names try to connect the next queries to the U_expiredate and U_licencenumber fields autorefresh according to the itemcode:
IF (Select i.ItmsGrpCode from OITM I Inner join OITB g
      on i.ItmsGrpCod = g.ItmsGrpCod Where i.ItemCode=$[$38.1.0]) in ('zyx','xyz')
   Select p.U_bpexpdate from OCRD p where p.CardCode=$[$4.1.0]
IF (Select i.ItmsGrpCode from OITM I Inner join OITB g
      on i.ItmsGrpCod = g.ItmsGrpCod Where i.ItemCode=$[$38.1.0]) in ('zyx','xyz')
Select p.U_bplicensenumber from OCRD p where p.CardCode=$[$4.1.0]
Else Select u2018000000u2019
and insert this in your SBO_SP_TransactionNotification stored procedure after the line
--     ADD     YOUR     CODE     HERE )
IF @transaction_type IN (N'A', N'U') AND @object_type = '17'
BEGIN
If exists
(Select t.Price From RDR1 t
   Where datediff(d,t U_expiredate,getdate())> 0 and U_licencenumber != u2018000000u2019
        and t.DocEntry=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
Select @error = 1,
   @error_message = N'Licence expired ! '
END

UDF mandatory for specific sales/purchasing doc.

Hi,
Is UDF can be made mandatory for a specific sales/purchasing document ?
Jeyakanthan

Hello,
Once UDF has been defined with mandatory checked, It will affect all relevant documents.
You can use approval procedure to monitor this for specific documet types.
If the UDF is in header level, you also can use query to set up an approval procedure to trigger it if the field is empty.
Hope this helps.

UDF MANDATORY FOR SALES INVOICE

Hi ,
We have created a UDF (Type Date)
U_Payment ,
I want to restrict user to add Sales Invoice Without entering the Date in UDF.
Please Help.
Thanks,
Anitha

Hi Anitha,
I am assuming that UDF is U_Payment:
Please use this SP:
---Payment Mandatory for Sales Invoice--
if @object_type='13' and (@transaction_type='A' or @transaction_type='U')
begin
if exists(select docentry from OINV where (U_Payment is null or U_Payment='') and docentry=@list_of_cols_val_tab_del)
begin
select @error=1, @error_message='Payment Date is Must'
end
end
This Code will also Restrict user to update existing Sales Invoice.
Hope This Help.

Mandatory fields while creating masters in SAP B1

Hi All
can some body tell if is there any manual where i get to know the mandatory fields while creating the masters in SAP B1 9.0
Thanks
Nidhi Trivedi

Hi Nidhi.
In Standard you can make UDF mandatory while Creating it by Checking Mandatory Option in UDF Window.
If you want to make Standard Field Mandatory then you have to use SP Transaction Notification to make that field Mandatory.
For other options, Please check below links.

Formatted Search Querry for UDF

Dear All,
        My client is using SAP B1 2007 B PL10. Now I am facing a issue like, I have made a UDF in the A/P Invoice Form and hence made it mandatory. But when i make a UDF field as mandatory I have to write a particular default value. Hence i have written default Value as 0.
      Now whenever i open the A/P Invoice Form, the mandatory UDF Field is showing default value as 0. But I want to write a Formatted Search Based Querry in a way that the UDF Field should become Nil whenever I Open the A/P Invoice Form.
      Please guide me in writing the Formatted Search Querry by which the UDF Field which is having a Default Value as '0' should become Nil.
    Regards
Hitesh Parsawala

Hi Hitesh ,
You have two option :
1.Either donot make ur UDF mandatory at the time of creation
Use sp_transaction notification to validate
2. Define UDF manadatory at the neginning
if user donot change the value , triggger approval procedure through FMS
I think it is
Select Distinct 'True' from tablename where <userdefined field =''i
If user donot change, it is going to triger approval procedure
<You can look for code in forum if that is not working >
Hope this helps

User Created in OIM 11.1.1.5 with null value for mandatory field.

Hi,
We had updated one UDF as mandatory field on OIM user form. We can see the * in front of that field. Now if we create the user using web console (Using UI), we are not able to create the user without giving some value in that UDF as it is mandatory. However if we created the user with UDF value as null using Trusted recon, User sucessfully created in OIM. I had attached the screen shot for that user which create in OIM with UDF value as null.
Is any thing else also need to do to make UDF as mandatory field.
Regards,
Sid

I am not sure this is a bug. Such mandatory checks will often only apply to administrative changes from the GUI. You may not always be able to enforce the same quality of data in reconciled data as you wish to impose for changes made through OIM, and it may prove an issue in some cases if such users could not be reconciled. In this case the use will go into OIM, but you will be forced to populate a value in the mandatory field if you later try to update them in OIM.

Issue with the UDF in MM

Hi All,
I have trying to use a user defined function in the XI message mapping.
Here is the code of the User defined function :
if (a != null)
return "test";
else
return "fail";
The mapping looks like :
a -> UDF -> result.
If I am sending the tag for "a" ; I get the result as "test".
But I am fully avoiding the tag itself. ( not even the empty tag); I get the error saying " Cannot produce the target element ...result".
Can anyone help me in resolving the issue ?
"a" is defined as an optional field.
The above case is just a prototype for a big problem.
Good Day!!!

Hi
use the UDF in the following way.
if(!a.equals(""));
return("test")
else
return("fail");
if u r getting the error as "Cannot produce the target element ...result"
then check the occurence for the target field whether the filed is mandatory or not.
if it's occurence is 1..1 then u have to map this filed with some source filed.
Thanks
Rinku
