WD Abap - simple question (required field)

hi folks,
quite a simple question i guess.
i have a field marked as required (gets a red asteriks). In the actions i have "Standard" so they should have to do all the validations, but i still can execute the action, i did not find a docu for the behaviour of the "required" features? i thought like in r/3 sapgui appl. a default error messages will be shown?
any ideas?
kind regards,
oliver

Oliver,
I guess there is no difference between WD ABAP and WD Java in this regard, so I will answer from WD Java developer point:
"Required" actually means visual hint to user that input is mandatory. What "mandatory" actually means is application-specific.
For example, in Java string could be either null, or empty, or contains only spaces, or rest. What is mandatory here? Not null? Not empty? Something besides spaces? Ok, even worth, let us assume that we are entering some number (material, order). So string with only zeroes is also "empty".
Hence WD does not handle "required" flag itself, this is left for application developer.
Certainly, some data type constraints like minimal text length, or minimal numeric value may be treated as "required", and here WD works well.

ABAP simple question on std sap report

Hi, thanks for this ABAP team on sdn. but please clarify 1. execute the table TRDIR with appl = M it gives the program list but when i copy the program name in se38 lets say program = /BEV3/FMCVFTOP_000002 then it say cannot generate so this means some of them are not report
can u suggest what is the start of tech name or identification to say that this program is a report so that i only execute the report and do not waste time on which are not report also if there is any way to find the report name from this TRDIR LIST
2. is any of ur team make such program that will fill application wise like M or F and have the filter set and give the list of report with report name
Please help
thanks
soniya

Soniya,

ABAP simple question

Hello everyone,
I have a question. In my Z program I have a zprogramname_top where my variables/tables are defined and a zprogramname_f01 where i make calculations.
in f01, i call another form where I fill a table, but when I retunr to the calling perform, that table is empty.
What am I doing wrong?
Example:
Data declaration:
data: ti_ftpost LIKE ftpost OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
F01:
form prepare_table.
loop at it_items.
    perform fill_table using      it_items-pos
                                changing ti_ftpost
endloop.
endform.
form fill_table using p_item
                       changing ti_ftpost.
ti_ftpost-item = p_item.
append ti_ftpost.
clear ti_ftpost.
endform.

Hello,
Try this
data: ti_ftpost like ftpost occurs 0 with header line.
types: t_post type table of ftpost.
data: begin of wa_items occurs 0,
pos type i,
end of wa_items.
data: it_items like wa_items OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
*&      Form prepare_table
*       text
form prepare_table.
loop at it_items.
    perform fill_table using it_items-pos
    changing ti_ftpost[].
endloop.
endform.
*&      Form fill_table
*       text
*      -->P_ITEM     text
*      -->TI_FTPOST text
form fill_table using p_item
changing ti_ftpost type t_post.
data: wa_post like line of ti_ftpost.
wa_post-fnam = p_item.
append wa_post to ti_ftpost.
clear wa_post.
endform.                    "fill_table
Though, I noticed that the type ftpost doesn't have a field named item.. in my ECC6 server at least

Now a simple question of Field exit.

well, im really very glad because my last post was a success and i can solve de problem!!!!thank you all...
this time i need in the VF01 on one field ('Reference'/Xblnr), when the user press save, to show some popup allowing entry data, so the user may choose some keys from a Ztable that i have to create, and then continue saving.
May i use a field exit for this?what steps shall i follow to activate a field exit and put my code?
Note: there isn't an User exit that appear in the moment i need, the one i asked in my last post doesn't work for this and any of the others finded in ZFindexit. when i'm debugging 'perform userexit_pricing_prepare_tkomk' 
appeared, is this an User exit? inside this perform i have changed manually while debugging the field i need and the proccess ended OK. how can i activate this exit?
well, i'm sure that someone know the asnwer....
i'll be very glad with the ones who can help me!!!!
and i'll give points in rewards for those who help me as a gratefulness of my part...
i'm waiting your help, thank in advance....

Hi andrew,
you will have a standard program RSMODPRF for field exits.
Execute that program and create a a field exit(function module) for 'XBLNR' giving the data element of XBLNR and number of the field exit as inputs.
There you can write the related code...
Hope this helps you.
Regards,
Vinod.

Regarding ABAP interveiw question

HI experts,
Will u tell send me ABAP interview question which can help to prepare for getting job in abap.
will you send me some guidelines that how to prepare for abap interview.
Thanks
Raman

Hi
1. How data is stored in cluster table?
Each field of cluster table behaves as tables which contains the no. of entries.
2. What are client dependant objects in abap/sap?
SAP Script layout, text element, and some DDIC objects.
3. On which even we can validate the input fields in module progams?
In PAI (Write field statement on field you want to validate, if you want to validate group of fields put in chain and End chain statement.)
4. In selection screen I have three fields, plant mat no and material group. If I input plant how do I get the mat no and material group based on plant dynamically?
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR MATERIAL.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4IF_INT_TABLE_VALUE_REQUEST' to get material and material group for the plant.
5. How do you get output from IDOC?
Data in IDOc is stored in segments, the output from Idoc is obtained by reading the data stored in its respective segments.
6. When top of the page event is triggered?
After excuteing first write statement in start-of-selection event.
7. Can we create field without data element and how?
In SE11 one option is available above the fields strip. Data element/ direct type.
8. How do we debug sapscript?
Go to SE71 give lay set name , go to utilities select debugger mode on.
9. Which transaction code can I used to analyze the performance of ABAP program.
TCode AL21.
10. How can I copy a standard table to make my own z_table.
Go to transaction SE11. Then there is one option to copy table. Press that button. Enter the name of the standard table and in the Target table enter Z table name and press enter.
Following are some of the answers which I gave upto my knowledge.
1. What is the use of 'outerjoin'
Ans. With the use of outer join you can join the tables even there is no entry in all the tables used in the view.
In case of inner join there should be an entry in al the tables use in the view.
2. When to use logical database?
Ans. Advantage of Logical databases:
less coding s required to retrieve data compared to normal internel tables.
Tables used LDB are in hierarchial structure.
3. What is the use of 'table index'?
Ans .Index is used for faster access of data base tables.
4. What is the use of 'FOR ALL ENTRIES'?
Ans. To avoid nested select statements we use SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES statement.
If there r more than 10000 records SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is used.
Performance wise SELECT FOR ALL ENTRIES is better to use.
5. Can you set up background processing using CALL TRANSACTION?
Yes,Using No Screen Mode.
6. What are table buffers?
Table buffers reside locally on each application server in the system. The data of buffered tables can thus be accessed
directly from the buffer of the application server. This avoids the time-consuming process of accessing the database.
Buffering is useful if table needs to be accessed more no. of times in a program.

Deepti
1. There are other ways of entering data into a DB table. ex. B D C
2. Collect statement collect/adds the records basing on a key field. allows to create summarised data sets.
Append will append/add a record at the end of existing records
8. to release an object - use se10/se9
9. sales doc flow: S. A. - S. O. - Delivery - Billing
12. Delivery - invoice.
15. field symbols are used for dynamic allocation. at runtime u can assign a concrete field to field-symbol.
Kishore
1. you can go to abap editor (se38) and use insert statement for insertion update for update and modify for modifications.
2. collect will not allow duplicate entries, while append can allow duplicates.
3. if any changes are made to objects they are to be transported to different systems i.e, change and transport.
4. in user exits we go by general method for enhancements while BADIs we use objects (oops concepts)
methods for enhancement.
14. table controls are enhanced version for step loops where we can expand rows .main difference between these two
is step loop can be expanded to two lines table controls can`t.
15. field symbols are just like pointers concept which are used in C language. We use them when we want to refer to
the fields considered,it doesnt allocate any memory for it.
Venu Rapolu
1. Ans: Using BDC., LSMW,,ALE., BAPI
2. Ans: Collect: it adds the numeric fields to the existing non numeric key field records., thereby avoiding duplicate
values., and append will simply adds the record
3 . Ans: The CTS contains work bench organizer and transport system :
The workbench organizer is used to record and contol changes to the ABAP/4 development objects;
The transport system is used to move objects from an SAP dev.system to production system
6. Ans: Outbound interface is used to send IDocs to the ALE server.,
Inbound interface is used to Analyse the received Idoc.
7. Ans: We (ABAPers) don't do.
8. Ans: se09 or se10
13. Ans: MATMAS
CREMAS
DEBMAS
GLMAST etc...
14. Ans: to display records in table format., we use in Screens
15. Ans: we assign the field content at run time with ASSIGN stmt.
Satish D
1. goto se16 u can view the table contents
2. collect will collects all the numeric fields of nonnumeric field values
append will append record at the end of table
3. when we are creatiing new task like dev. a new prg.. after completion of dev. that will be trnsported to testing system or production system to do that we are assigning an
transport request from our dev.class(system) by using se09
4. badis are dev. by class and inheritence methods where as user exitsdev by SAP only and empty shells filled wit user logic
5. go to system then status
6. outbound generating an idoc in ale layer with master_idoc_create_messgetype,
inbound is receivng system with idoc_inbound_process, gives an return variable wether it is sucess or not
7. no we have to configur that
8. go to se09 or se01 there write your task no and use release button it will asks whats the other system name
and number enter them and relase by pressing jeep button
9. inquiry
quotation
sales order
shipping
delivery
invoice
return goods
12. after creation of delivry note invoice is prepared
13. master_idoc_distribute will generate standard idoc
Deepti
I am enclosing some of answers which I know.
1. We can use t.Code SE16 to enter values into table only if table maintainence is allowed for that table.
2. Append will add new entries into the table where as collect add into the numeric type fields if other charatcer fields
matches to your selection criteria.
3. CTS used for creation of ABAP development transport requests.The transaction code for this is SE10.
4. UserExits r used for adding additional functionality to the existing SAP standard transactions.Using UserExits we can add additional functionality standard SAP functionality without making any changes to the original code.BADI is a standardized interface for ABAP sources that enables partners and customers to enhance SAP-delivered programs in their namespace.
5 .We can identify User exits by using transactions CMOD and SMOD.
6. After entering transaction code SE10 select the transport request which u want to transport and click on transport icon(Truck symbol) to release it.
10. Purchase Requistion->RFQ->Vendor Evaluation->Purchase Order(ME21).
14. Table control is the only facility provide thru dialog programming when we come acrosse the use of updating standared,deletion,insertion and all database operations.
15. Field symbols r pointers to the existing data types(like 'C') which does not allocate any memory space. These are used faster access of data.
Answers to some ABAP Interview Questions:
Questions which I have faced in an interview:
1) What is runtime analysis? Have you used this?
2) What is meant by performance analysis? Have done anything to improve the performance?
3) How to transfer the objects? Have to transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
5) What is the difference between SAP Memory and ABAP Memory?
6) In order to upload Purchase order details, how you handle multiple values for a single field?
Eg: Item field may contain no. of values for a record
7) What is the procedure you followed to upload the data?
8) How did you handle errors in Call Transaction?
9) Among the Call Transaction and Session Method, which is faster?
10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?
11) How to pass the variables to forms?
12) How to create a link between modified form and modified print program?
13) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms?
14) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?
15) What are Standard Texts?
16) What is the difference between Clustered Tables and Pooled Tables?
17) What is pf-status?
18) Among "Move" and "Move Corresponding", which is efficient one?
19) What are the output type and Tcodes?
20) Where we use Chain and Endchain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop endloop, how will be the performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004
Go thru these answers:
1) What is runtime analysis? Have you used this?
It's checks program execution time in microseconds. When you go to se30.if you give desired program name in performance file. It will take you to below screen. You can get how much past is your program.
2) What is meant by performance analysis? Have done
3) How to transfer the objects? Have you transferred any objects?
4) How did you test the developed objects?
I was testing a developed object. There are two types of testing
- Negative testing
- Positive testing
In negative testing we will give negative data in input and we check any errors occurs.
In positive testing we will give positive data in input for checking errors.
8) How did you handle errors in Call Transaction?
We can create a internal table like 'bsgmcgcoll'. All the messages will go to internal table. We can get errors in this internal table.
Below messages are go to internal table. when you run the call transaction.
- Message type
- Message id
- Message Number
- Variable1
- Variable2
- Variable3
9) Among the Call Transaction and Session Method, which is faster?
Call transaction is faster then session method. But usually we use session method in real time...because we can transfer large amount of data from internal table to database and if any errors in a session. Process will not complete until session get correct.
10) What are the difference between Interactive and Drill Down Reports?
ABAP/4 provides some interactive events on lists such as AT LINE-SELECTION (double click) or AT USER-COMMAND (pressing a button). You can use these events to move through layers of information about individual items in a list.
Drill down report is nothing but interactive report...drilldown means above paragraph only.
11) How to pass the variables to forms?
12) What is the table, which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms?
Table contains vertical and horizontal lines. We can store the data in table as blocks. We can scroll depends upon your wish. And these all are stored in database (data dictionary).
Which contain the details of all the name of the programs and forms? (I don't know).
13) How did you test the form u developed? How did you taken print?
14) What are Standard Texts?
16) What is the difference between Clustered Tables and Pooled Tables?
A pooled table is used to combine several logical tables in the ABAP/4 dictionary. Pooled tables are logical tables that must be assigned to a table pool when they are defined.
Cluster table are logical tables that must be assigned to a table cluster when they are defined.
Cluster table can be used to store control data they can also used to store temporary data or text such as documentation.
17) What is pf-status?
Pf status is used in interactive report for enhancing the functionality. If we go to se41, we can get menus, items and different function keys, which we are using for secondary list in interactive report.
18) Among "Move" and "Move Corresponding", which is efficient one?
I guess, 'move corresponding' is very efficient then 'move' statement. Because usually we use this stamtent for internal table fields only...so if we give move corresponding. Those fields only moving to other place (what ever you want).
19) What are the output type and Tcodes?
20) Where we use Chain and End chain?
21) Do you use select statement in loop end loop, how will be the performance? To improve the performance?
22) In select-options, how to get the default values as current month first date and last date by default?
Eg: 1/12/2004 and 31/12/2004
SAP ABAP interview questions
Thanks to the reader who sent in this question set:
1. What is an ABAP data dictionary?- ABAP 4 data dictionary describes the logical structures of the objects used in application development and shows how they are mapped to the underlying relational database in tables/views.
2. What are domains and data element?- Domains:Domain is the central object for describing the technical characteristics of an attribute of an business objects. It describes the value range of the field. Data Element: It is used to describe the semantic definition of the table fields like description the field. Data element describes how a field can be displayed to end-user.
3. What is foreign key relationship?- A relationship which can be defined between tables and must be explicitly defined at field level. Foreign keys are used to ensure the consistency of data. Data entered should be checked against existing data to ensure that there are now contradiction. While defining foreign key relationship cardinality has to be specified. Cardinality mentions how many dependent records or how referenced records are possible.
4. Describe data classes.- Master data: It is the data which is seldomly changed. Transaction data: It is the data which is often changed. Organization data: It is a customizing data which is entered in the system when the system is configured and is then rarely changed. System data:It is the data which R/3 system needs for itself.
5. What are indexes?- Indexes are described as a copy of a database table reduced to specific fields. This data exists in sorted form. This sorting form ease fast access to the field of the tables. In order that other fields are also read, a pointer to the associated record of the actual table are included in the index. Yhe indexes are activated along with the table and are created automatically with it in the database.
6. Difference between transparent tables and pooled tables.- Transparent tables: Transparent tables in the dictionary has a one-to-one relation with the table in database. Its structure corresponds to single database field. Table in the database has the same name as in the dictionary. Transparent table holds application data. Pooled tables. Pooled tables in the dictionary has a many-to-one relation with the table in database. Table in the database has the different name as in the dictionary. Pooled table are stored in table pool at the database level.
7. What is an ABAP/4 Query?- ABAP/4 Query is a powerful tool to generate simple reports without any coding. ABAP/4 Query can generate the following 3 simple reports: Basic List: It is the simple reports. Statistics: Reports with statistical functions like Average, Percentages. Ranked Lists: For analytical reports. - For creating a ABAP/4 Query, programmer has to create user group and a functional group. Functional group can be created using with or without logical database table. Finally, assign user group to functional group. Finally, create a query on the functional group generated.
8. What is BDC programming?- Transferring of large/external/legacy data into SAP system using Batch Input programming. Batch input is a automatic procedure referred to as BDC(Batch Data Communications).The central component of the transfer is a queue file which receives the data vie a batch input programs and groups associated data into sessions.
9. What are the functional modules used in sequence in BDC?- These are the 3 functional modules which are used in a sequence to perform a data transfer successfully using BDC programming: BDC_OPEN_GROUP - Parameters like Name of the client, sessions and user name are specified in this functional modules. BDC_INSERT - It is used to insert the data for one transaction into a session. BDC_CLOSE_GROUP - This is used to close the batch input session.
10. What are internal tables?- Internal tables are a standard data type object which exists only during the runtime of the program. They are used to perform table calculations on subsets of database tables and for re-organising the contents of database tables according to users need.
11. What is ITS? What are the merits of ITS?- ITS is a Internet Transaction Server. ITS forms an interface between HTTP server and R/3 system, which converts screen provided data by the R/3 system into HTML documents and vice-versa. Merits of ITS: A complete web transaction can be developed and tested in R/3 system. All transaction components, including those used by the ITS outside the R/3 system at runtime, can be stored in the R/3 system. The advantage of automatic language processing in the R/3 system can be utilized to language-dependent HTML documents at runtime.
12. What is DynPro?- DynPro is a Dynamic Programming which is a combination of screen and the associated flow logic Screen is also called as DynPro.
13. What are screen painter and menu painter?- Screen painter: Screen painter is a tool to design and maintain screen and its elements. It allows user to create GUI screens for the transactions. Attributes, layout, filed attributes and flow logic are the elements of Screen painter. Menu painter: Menu painter is a tool to design the interface components. Status, menu bars, menu lists, F-key settings, functions and titles are the components of Menu painters. Screen painter and menu painter both are the graphical interface of an ABAP/4 applications.
14. What are the components of SAP scripts?- SAP scripts is a word processing tool of SAP which has the following components: Standard text. It is like a standard normal documents. Layout sets. - Layout set consists of the following components: Windows and pages, Paragraph formats, Character formats. Creating forms in the R/3 system. Every layout set consists of Header, paragraph, and character string. ABAP/4 program.
15. What is ALV programming in ABAP? When is this grid used in ABAP?- ALV is Application List viewer. Sap provides a set of ALV (ABAP LIST VIEWER) function modules which can be put into use to embellish the output of a report. This set of ALV functions is used to enhance the readability and functionality of any report output. Cases arise in sap when the output of a report contains columns extending more than 255 characters in length. In such cases, this set of ALV functions can help choose selected columns and arrange the different columns from a report output and also save different variants for report display. This is a very efficient tool for dynamically sorting and arranging the columns from a report output. The report output can contain up to 90 columns in the display with the wide array of display options.
16. What are the events in ABAP/4 language?- Initialization, At selection-screen, Start-of-selection, end-of-selection, top-of-page, end-of-page, At line-selection, At user-command, At PF, Get, At New, At LAST, AT END, AT FIRST.
17. What is CTS and what do you know about it?- The Change and Transport System (CTS) is a tool that helps you to organize development projects in the ABAP Workbench and in Customizing, and then transport the changes between the SAP Systems and clients in your system landscape. This documentation provides you with an overview of how to manage changes with the CTS and essential information on setting up your system and client landscape and deciding on a transport strategy. Read and follow this documentation when planning your development project.
18. What are logical databases? What are the advantages/ dis-advantages of logical databases?- To read data from a database tables we use logical database. A logical database provides read-only access to a group of related tables to an ABAP/4 program. Advantages: i)check functions which check that user input is complete, correct,and plausible. ii)Meaningful data selection. iii)central authorization checks for database accesses. iv)good read access performance while retaining the hierarchical data view determined by the application logic. dis advantages: i)If you donot specify a logical database in the program attributes,the GET events never occur. ii)There is no ENDGET command,so the code block associated with an event ends with the next event statement (such as another GET or an END-OF-SELECTION).
19. What is a batch input session?- BATCH INPUT SESSION is an intermediate step between internal table and database table. Data along with the action is stored in session ie data for screen fields, to which screen it is passed, program name behind it, and how next screen is processed.
20. How to upload data using CATT ?- These are the steps to be followed to Upload data through CATT: Creation of the CATT test case & recording the sample data input. Download of the source file template. Modification of the source file. Upload of the data from the source file.
21. What is Smart Forms?- Smart Forms allows you to create forms using a graphical design tool with robust functionality, color, and more. Additionally, all new forms developed at SAP will be created with the new Smart Form solution.
22. How can I make a differentiation between dependent and independent data?- Client dependent or independent transfer requirements include client specific or cross client objects in the change requests. Workbench objects like SAPscripts are client specific, some entries in customizing are client independent. If you display the object list for one change request, and then for each object the object attributes, you will find the flag client specific. If one object in the task list has this flag on, then that transport will be client dependent.
23. What is the difference between macro and subroutine? - Macros can only be used in the program the are defined in and only after the definition are expanded at compilation / generation. Subroutines (FORM) can be called from both the program the are defined in and other programs . A MACRO is more or less an abbreviation for some lines of code that are used more than once or twice. A FORM is a local subroutine (which can be called external). A FUNCTION is (more or less) a subroutine that is called external. Since debugging a MACRO is not really possible, prevent the use of them (Ive never used them, but seen them in action). If the subroutine is used only local (called internal) use a FORM. If the subroutine is called external (used by more than one program) use a FUNCTION.

How do I use 'submit' as complete pdf, and use 'drawn my signature' with required fields?

I have created a form with required fields, no problem. The form can be completed with adobe reader, and a signature added using Sign > Place signature > Draw my signature, great. But i need the required fields to be checked and then sent by email, so I have add a button and set the action to "Submit a form" and selected "PDF The Complete Document" from the options. I then add the javascript URL - mailto:????@????.com, but now the "Draw my signature" option is greyed out.
I have asked this question a number of times, and cannot get a proper answer, please can someone help or offer a work around.

George,
Thanks for your response, but I am not sure it fully answers my question. I have attached a screenshot to show what I mean - here I have created a simple form, with one required field for some data, using Acrobat XI. If I open the form (I have not reader enabled the form) in Adobe Reader XI, I am able to add a drawn signature, I could save the document then attach to an email to send as you have suggested.
But, If I now add a Submit button, set the URL to mail it to [email protected] and select "PDF the complete document" as below
When I open the document in Adobe Reader now, the signature options are all greyed out as you can see.
Hope this clarifies my predicament

If RowIndicator is H then required field is RowIndicator,FName,ID.
IF RowIndicator is D then required field is RowIndicator, ID_Detail,Cost,GL_String.
Now if any required field is empty then store the name of these Elements in a file and send this file in the attachment in mail.And how can I uniquely identify that these information is for particular student.
H stands for header and D stands for details.
One Record (which RowIndicator is H) belongs to other record (which RowIndicator is D) only when ID of
record (which RowIndicator is H) equals to ID_Details of record(which RowIndicator is D).
Any Help would be appreciated.I want to do it orchestration after getting the message by calling a c# function. I have written the attachment function for sending mail.I just want to put those information in a file.
Prakash

In Orchestration, you can call a helper method as the following, where you can apply the validation log and either constructs a XML-Message with error details or a simple error string message with error details appended which you can pass to your email program
and send email.
public static string ContractValidationMsg(XmlDocument xmlInput)
string sErrorMessage = String.Empty;
//Get the HeaderID
XmlNodeList headerNodes = xmlInput.SelectNodes("/*[local-name()='Students' and namespace-uri()='http://CallTemplate_Increment.StudentSchema']/*[local-name()='StudentTransactions' and namespace-uri()=''][RowIndicator='H']");
//Loop thur all the filtered header node
foreach (XmlNode headerNode in headerNodes)
string sHeaderID = headerNode.SelectSingleNode("/*[local-name()='Students' and namespace-uri()='http://CallTemplate_Increment.StudentSchema']/*[local-name()='StudentTransactions' and namespace-uri()='']/*[local-name()='ID' and namespace-uri()='']").InnerText;
//Get the DetailID for the filtered ErrorID
XmlNodeList detailNodes = xmlInput.SelectNodes("/*[local-name()='Students' and namespace-uri()='http://CallTemplate_Increment.StudentSchema']/*[local-name()='StudentTransactions' and namespace-uri()=''][RowIndicator='D'][ID_Detail='" + sHeaderID + "']");
//Loop thru the DetailID
foreach (XmlNode detailNode in detailNodes)
string sCost = detailNode.SelectSingleNode("Cost").InnerText;
//Check Cost in detail is empty, if so then construct the error message
if (sCost == String.Empty)
sErrorMessage +=sErrorMessage + " For HeaderID:" + sHeaderID + " , In its Detail node, value for Cost element is missing /n" ;
string sGL_String = detailNode.SelectSingleNode("GL_String").InnerText;
//Check GL_String in detail is empty, if so then append the error message
if (sGL_String == String.Empty)
sErrorMessage += sErrorMessage + " For HeaderID:" + sHeaderID + " , In its Detail node, value for GL_String element is missing /n";
return sErrorMessage;
This is just to give you an idea and you and fine-tune it to fit your requirement. The above code is a working code.

Check for required fields before locking subforms and submitting

Hello,
I have a 5-page form with many questions, to be completed by the original requestor and multiple approvers. What I'm trying to do is have the original requestor's Submit button on p. 3 lock the input on the first three pages, but first check if all those fields have some content. I currently have all the fields on pp. 1-3 set to "Required" in the object properties, but my script still locks them when there's is one empty one. Here's what I have:
//Lock portions of form
Page1.access = "readOnly"
Page2.access = "readOnly"
Page3.access = "readOnly"
//Save document, allow user to change name
app.execMenuItem("SaveAs");
//Submit via e-mail
Submit_REAL.event__click.submit.target = "mailto:[email protected]" +
"?subject=Subject text" +
"&body=Message";
Submit_REAL.execEvent("click");
The automatic check for required fields happens after the pages get locked. I would like the check to stop the process before it locks the pages. Is there any way to check all at once that all "Required" fields on those pages have some content before allowing the script to proceed? I know how to script it to manually check the 50 or so questions on those pages, but I would like to avoid that. Thanks for any help.

There are a few problems that I can see from the start. First, your code is going to pick up EVERY node that exists on these pages. Some of those nodes will not have a rawValue, and some will not have an actual name. As an example, you can take your code and create a text field to dump all of the names of the nodes that you get when you pull in all of the nodes this way. Here's an example:
The result:
Now, the question is, do you have a consistent naming convention for your fields that might be empty? That could be text fields, radio button lists, etc. For instance, I always prefix the names of objects in order to more easily keep track of what they are in scripts. Since I'm doing that, I can check the name of the field for tf, nf, rbl, cb, or whatever I have included to make sure that I'm checking an actual field before I check for things like rawValue.
var nodeName = oNodes.item(nNodeCount).name;
if (nodeName.indexOf("tf")>-1 || nodeName.indexOf("rbl") > -1 || /*check other field types*/) {
//insert your code to check for empty answers here
As for your line 7 issue. The syntax problem is that you've put extra parentheses in your if statement. Take out the parentheses that are just before and after the or "||".
*This is my fourth attempt to reply. Something was going on with Adobe/Jive earlier, I suppose.

Power view in SharePoint - Required fields not working!!!

Hi,
We have SharePoint 2013 and SQL Server 2014 and SSRS in SharePoint integrated mode.
We have a "Microsoft BI Semantic Model for Power View"-data connection in a document library and by clicking it users can create their own Power View reports.
We have in the document library defined a couple of columns as required.
When a user saves their Power View report(File->Save as) to the document library, the required fields are left blank. They are not checked!!!
WHY?
Does Power View use REST when saving to the document library?
This question should be in SQL Server/Power View/SharePoint -forumns, but MSDN forces you to select only one.
How can we enforce the checking of required columns???

It might be the result of nested script tags.
<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
<!--
Remote one of those opening tags and remove the closing tag in between the scripts.
Also, I'm not sure if you are aware, but your site looks completely broken in Firefox. Edges are ragged and the text runs off the page in places. This is the result of using a graphics program to create your html. Image ready slices are fine for prototyping, but not suitable for production work because they create code that is fragile and too rigid.
I also would not use the Flash header you have used just to display imges. I suggest using a more accessible method.

A simple Question about % in CR Chart!

Hi, I have another simple question.
When i use SQL to storage data and wanna Crystal Report to display the data in chart using %
which data type should i use?
float or string?
and I found when i use 0.12 as 12% in database , It could not display in Crystal Report line chart normally.
What should I do??
Please Help!!!
Thank you VERY MUCH!!!

If you have the datatype as string from your database then try adding the string field as a summary field in chart and select maximum instead of count and if you have them in number format then you can directly select the percentage in chart.

Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400

While posting a Good receipt document using MIGO for a PO I am recieving the following error
Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400
Though both the document date and Posting date fields are filled with appropriate date.
The detailed message reads as follows, now my question is how to change the baseline date for the Cocd 1200 for GL account 122400
Field Bline date is a required field for G/L account 1200 122400
Message no. F5 808
Diagnosis
The value for field "Bline date" in the interface to Financial Accounting is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field selection for G/L account "122400" in company code "1200" linked to the field selection for posting key "81".
System Response
Error
Procedure
It might be an error in the configuration of the G/L account field selection. The initial application, used to call up the interface must otherwise define a value for field "Bline date". If this is the case, contact the consultant responsible for the application used to call up the interface or get in contact with SAP directly.

Hello Ravinagh,
Heres what I did:
OB41> Double clicked on posting key 81> clicked on field status> Payment transactions> Both Due date and Value date have already been set to optional.
For OB14 it asks me to input a field status variant.
There are three of them. Now here is the tricky part, how do I find out which field variant has been assigned
0001     Field status for 0001
1000     Field status for CoA 1000
3000     Field status for CoC 3000
I went further and check for all the three variants one by one
and found out that in the field status> Payment transactions for the following entry in the field status group
G045     Goods/invoice received clearing accounts
The DUE DATE and VALUE DATE are suppressed. What do I need to do here?
Next I checked OBB8 to find the following three Options I dunno which one of them is applicable to the GL account 122400 for Cocd 1200. Where can I find the assignment? How can I find which payment term is being used.
   PayT        Sales text
Day limit   Explanations
0001
0           Payable immediately Due net
0002
0           Within 14 days 3 % cash discount
              Within 30 days 2 % cash discount
              Within 45 days Due net
0003
15          Within 14 days 2 % cash discount
              Within 30 days 1.5 % cash discount
              Within 45 days Due net
              Baseline date on 30 of the month
Entry 1 of 40
Well I went ahead and clicked on each of them
For 0001 the Default for Baseline date is set to Posting date (Do I need to change anything here?)
For 0002 the Default for Baseline date is set to Document date (Do I need to change anything here?)
For 0003 the Default for Baseline date is set to Posting date (Do I need to change anything here?)
Please guide me here. If you need screenshots I would be glad to mail it to you.
I hope you understood the scenario.
Thanks
Ron

Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 5500

Hello Experts,
I need your help for one of the issue related to the cost center.
While posting the accounting document I am getting the below error -
Invocie Nr are: 95867831 and 95876503
Message is: Field Cost Ctr is a required field for G/L account 5500
52301203
Message no. F5808
Diagnosis
The value for field "Cost Ctr" in the interface to Financial Accounting
is an initial value but you are required to make an entry in the field
selection for G/L account "52301203" in company code "5500" linked to
the field selection for posting key "40".
Looking in the history of one of the two contracts I find the following:
Invoice 0095639591 from 16.11.2010, an accounting document was created
and in the accounting document CO object is cost center (and not COPA)
14901.
Account 52301203 has Field status group Z103 (cost - mad CostCenter)
Our user is saying that (eq 3529183592, invoice 95639591)
should have a cost center assigned in the equipment master. After
entering that cost center (14901) the accounting document was created
correctly.
However when we checked the "DefaultAcctAssgmnt" of the cost element 52301203, the filed Cost center is empty.
Can you please help with your suggessions?
Regards,
Reshma

from Note 518060 - FAQ: Physical inventory
12. Question:
Can I manually specify an account assignment (for example cost center) during the update of inventory differences?
Answer:
No. No. A direct entry of an account assignment for difference postings in the physical inventory (both MI07 and MI10...) is not possible.
A differentiation to different account assignments is only possible via a differentiation of the cost elements - refer to Note 13423.
In my words: FI has to change the field status

Pop up Window before saving remembering the need (forcing) to fill required fields in a form

Hi!
I searched the "old" forum and have very good help from UVSAR but unfortunately I'm not able to access my message sent to that forum anymore.
[I could never thank all the people who answered because I keep receiving "Your submission has triggered the spam filter and will not be accepted.""]
I've have never use Java scripts in my life: I started about three days ago.
1) I'm using Adobe Acrobat Pro X (Windows 7)
2) I've created a form using Microsoft Word and save it as a pdf file.
3) After I created a form using Acrobat Pro X;
3.1.) This form it's not going to be submitted over Internet. It will be send by e-mail to some persons. They will receive it, fill in the form and send it back to me via e-mail. Note: I will save it with extended rights in order to allow to be read with acrobat reader (I'm the only one of the group having Professional edition).
4) In that form I've created some text fields (for now it's just what I need - no radio buttons, dropdown
menus, and so...)
5) Choosed Properties and marked 7 fields as "required";
6) Used a script I found in here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/784322 (thank you for the authors of the thread)
if (!event.target.valueAsString) {
app.alert("My text My text", 3);
7) This script allows me to remember people to fill that 7 specific fields (when using mouse or tab).
8) So... What I really need? Here are the reasons for my request for help:
8.1.) When people use the Acrobat Reader Save button (not a button I created inside the form) it will pop up an alert message. Users will receive a pop up window telling them they need to fill those fields before saving the form and send it back to me. Can someone share a script, please? Thanks in advance.
8.2.) Is there a way to colorize the fileds that need to be filled? Again I only learned where to insert a java script yestaerday sou I'm not able to write one. I'm sorry for my newbie questions.
8.3.) Last question: In one of the fields there will be an e-mail address. On the end of the form I want to create a button like "Send by e-mail" and When someone press that button the e-mail will be sent to the address that was written in the earlier specific field. How can I do this (link a button to an e-mail address in a specific field)? Can someone help me with a script or ideas? Hope I was clear.
8.1.) UVSAR sent me the following code that works fine untill I save the document for the first time. Affter that he never shows me pop up window again.
var isFilled = true;
for (var i=0;i < this.numFields;i++){
var f = this.getNthFieldName(i);
if (this.getField(f).required && !this.getField(f).valueAsString) isFilled = false;
if (!isFilled) app.alert("You must complete all the required fields");
8.3.) With the help of UVSAR I used:
var mailto = this.getField('emaddr').valueAsString;
if (mailto!='') this.mailForm({ bUI:true, cTo:mailto, cSubject:"This is the subject", cMsg: "This is the body of
the mail." });
else app.alert("Cannot submit form until the email address field is completed");
but gives me an error (Note: I named the filed with e-mail "emaddr")
Once again Thank you so very very much to all the kind people who take their time to share knowledge...
I'm not a native speaker, sorry for some errors
Best regards
AC

Hi ACI wonder if you can share any responses on to your question above?I too have never used a script but, I have the same problems as you in regards to building a form. And wants to have the same 'protection' and message reminders for the end users. Any information, including a script and/or a contact email of experts you can share with me will help tremendously. Thank you so much in advance. Winnie

Posting on required field for CO-PA in MIRO

We are using MIRO for all our postings on vendors (one workflow)
When we are making postings is possible in a situation that we crated the CO-PA posting without the required field for CO-PA.
Steps:
We fill in all information from the posting like Business area and Profit center.
Click on Prof. Segment (now you see the required fields)
Click on Cancel
Click on Prof. Segment (now company code, Business area and Profit center are filed in and can not be changed)
Click on Continue
Now the Prof. Segment is green and we save the posting without the required fields for CO-PA
We are working on version 4.6. With the transaction FB60 it is not possible to create the same situation.
How we can solve this problem?
Thanks
Paul

Hi Anantha,
We are using only MIRO for vendor postings. The reason is that there is one central center that is scanning in the invoices and sent them around with work-flow. To keep it simple we are using only MIRO.
