Validation for Project definition

Hi Gurus,
We create project definitions with 12 char. Some time user misses out some characters hence I want to restric the same. I am trying to check the blank fields in the project definition using validation. I could succeed in stopping the user from proceeding in IDES through validation but when I applied the same logic in dev. client, it is checking but not stopping it from going ahead (I have given Error message only). The difference in the dev. client is that I have already created some validations for the PROJ-PSPID field. Is this disallowing the check or what should be the logic I should use to ensure all the 12 characters of the project definition fields are filled.
thanks in advance
Vinodh

Hi Vinodh,
Try this,
Pre-requisite:
PROJ-PSPID Not Equals Symbol ' '
Check:
PROJ-PSPID :1-12: Not Equals Symbol ' '
This should help.
Note: The place where i have written Not equals symbol, there you insert not equals symbol. Its not getting displayed here.
Also, input validation name in OPSA in Project defn. field and Tick on Automatic Validation

    Hi,
    Have you tried to save the project? Because validation rule will call at time of saving the Project.
    I have created the same but for start with 'U'
    When I create project and at time of saving, validation rule will call and system throw error if I don't create project start with 'U'.
    Now If I am creating here, start with 'J'. System  is throwing error as per validation rule.
    Also Pl check if you have assigned same correct rule on project profile.

  • Validation in Project Definition No Range

    Dear Expert,
    I am creating a validation of project definition number range specific for a project profile but not get sucess.
    Scenario is like this..i have a project profile Z000001 for which there is a number range of project code 1000 to 1999
    i had created a validation as :-
    Prerequisite :-  PROJ-PROFL = 'Z000001'
    Check :-     ( ( PROJ-PSPID :4-7: >= '1813' ) AND ( PROJ-PSPID :4-7: < '2000' ) )
    Project Code logic is  XX/XXXX , ex PL/1814
    But While creating Project Code system is giving the error massage in both right n wrong condition

    Hi,
    PSPID & POSID both dont consider special characters.
    PROJ - PSPID = "SN-001".
    Here :1-6: means "SN001" for 1-5 & "0" for 6 as characters.
    PRPS - POSID = "SN-001-CIV"
    Here :1-6: means "SN001" for 1-5 & "C" for 6 as characters.
    In Your case just try changing your check statement to.
    Check :- ( ( PROJ-PSPID :3-6: >= '1813' ) AND ( PROJ-PSPID :3-6: < '1999' ) )
    and update the test result.

    Hai Experts,
          Please help me 'How to find next number range for project definition in tcode "CJ20N". I was trying in function module NUMBER_GET_NEXT. Is it right function module? If its right what input i need to give for this tcode and for the field project definition?

    Hi,
    For project defination internal number is assigned by system.
    When you saves's project then system allocate one number to project defination, you can view it,
    SE11 >>> table  PROJ >> Click on contents >>> execute,
    here you will get your project defination & number is assigned to project defination.

  • PS: Setting Project Profile as a mandatory field for Project Definition

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to set Project Profile as a mandatory field for Project Definition (CJ20N or CJ01).  I tried to look for controls at OPUK config but the Project Profile is not available for definition - either mandatory, optional, suppressed, etc.  Would appreciate if you can share your expertise on this.
    Thanks!

  • Including customized fields in Field selection for Project definition

    Hi Experts,
    I have created additional zfields in Project definition,
    But those fields are not coming in customization node " Field selection for Project Definition".
    Is there any way , by which we can include those fields in the list of " Field selection for Project Definition"  in customization ,
    so that i can hide/disable for diff project Profile.
    Thanx in adv.
    Regards
    Ashis

    Hi,
    actually one can try to add customer fields to field configuration using transaction SFAW alike SAP own fields.
    It is usually possible to extend the list of the modifiable fields of the  field selection in transaction SFAW within the framework of a            
    modification (as long as the fields are relative to tables PRPS or  PROJ). The relevant module pool is SAPLCJWB.                             
    Example
    E.g. for the SAP field 'functional area' (field  PRPS-FUNC_AREA) one would proceed as follows:                                                                               
    In the transaction SFAW, Module pool SAPLCJWB, Screen group PRPS 
    -Select 'Modified fields', and choose 'Change'.                          
    -Enhance the list of the modifiable fields by the following entries :    
    PRPS-FUNC_AREA. Answer yes to the question : do you want the field to   
    be modifiable?.                                                         
    Don't forget to save and then click on the 'generate button' of the     
    transaction SFAW.                                                       
    - The relevant field for distribution profile would be PRPS-PGPRF.         
    In the same manner one can try to add the Z field.
    Please note: This procedure is considered as a modification, so please review note    
    114390 which discusses a problem which can occur during an upgrade.      
    Kind regards

  • Validation in project definition

    Hi,
    We have a requirement where in we need a validation on the project definition while creating a project in the project builder (CJ20n).
    The validation is that, if the project definition starts with the letter 'V', there should be an error message thrown and the project is not saved.
    Can any one please let me know how is this done??????
    Cheers,
    Raghav.

    Hi;
    for the validation on project defination, you should create project coding masks for you projects.
    As soon as the user creates a new project not on the criteria defined by you on coding mask it will generate error message and project will not be created/saved.
    There is the way how u do it.
    Go  --> SPRO --> Project Systems --> Structures --> Operative Structure -->
    Work Breakdown Structure --> Project Coding Mask.
    Now here first of all u need to define special characters for Coding mask if u have any requirement.
    Then on second step you will define Project Coding mask.
    If you need any further assistance plz dont feel hesitant to ask ..
    If u find it Valuable, plz close the issue and reward points.
    Regards.

  • Validation on Project Definition

    Hi,
    We configured a validation in Tcode OPSI where:
    Prerequisite is -> PROJ-PSPID :1-4: = 'XXXX'
    Check is -> PROJ-VBUKR = '####'
    However, when we tried to create a project definition with special characters, system allowed us to save the project. Please note that the prerequisite is alpha and the check is numeric. How can we limit that the first 4 characters in PROJ-PSPID are alpha only and no special or numeric characters?
    Thank you.

    Hi,
    I suggest you to check first your Project Coding Mask. And change according to your requirement.
    OPSK - Maintain Special Characters Project Systems
    OPSJ -Project Number Editing
    System will not allow to create Project definition beyond its coding mask.

  • Conversion exit for project definition

    Hi
    I have created a generic extractor to get some data of table PRPS. The project-definition number in this table is in field PSPHI. When you display the result of the extractor in the extractor checker (RSA3) the correct number (e.g. PG5707) is showing, however, when it comes into BW, it is showing the internal number (e.g. 000002). In BW I use this field to populate 0PROJECT, but due to the internal number being sent, I cant use it.
    Can anyone please tell me what conversion exit I can call in my extractor to get the external number?
    I also notice in SE16 for this table there is a selection in the user parameters to tick under the "Format" section in the data browser tab. If it is not selected, it shows the internal number, but if selected, the external number is displayed. I want to do this in my extractor.
    Thanks

  • System Status Change for Project Definition

    Hi,
    I am working on a requirement to notify the Project Manager when the Project Status changes to REL.
    I couldn't find any user exits where I can add the code to send an e-mail notification at the time of status change of the Project Definition or the WBS elements within the Project.
    I checked for events in Business Objects BUS2054(WBS) and BUS2001(ProjectDefinition) which might get triggered at the time of status change. I couldn't find any events relevant to Status Change.
    Any ideas how to handle this requirement ?

  • Grey field for project definition and WBS element

    Dear all,
    I have created a project and WBS element in CJ01. Now I go via CJ02 to the change mode and the project ID and WBS element ID is not greyed out. But I would like that the system shows these key fields as not changeable anymore, only fields like description should be changable. Can you please tell me, which customizing step I missed to get the grey field for project ID/WBS element ID?
    FYI  I do not use a project mask to create the project.
    Thanks for your answer.
    Heidi

    Hi Heidi ,
    I don't think you can grey out the Project Definition and the WBS Element fields after the creation .
    If you want to restrict the users to change the Proj definition and WBS , a better way is through
    Authorization objects and restricting only specified users to change the WBS
