use MESSAGE with MESSAGE TYPE 'E'.

like:

paameters p_name type string.

if p_name is initial.

message 'please enter name' type 'E'.

endif.

if one don't enter ny value in the field p_name then message 'please enter name' will occur and once the error is corrected th code will execute ..

Hi Sushant,

If you want to correct the value entered in that case u need to give an information message type 'I' bcoz error message will not let u to correct the entered value.

Thanks & Regards

Anyway If it is the report use this validation part in AT SELECTION_SCREEN event.

Check following sample code:

data: p_data(4).

parameters: s_data like p_data.

at SELECTION-SCREEN.

if s_data = 'TEST'.
  write:/ 'User entered TEST as input'.
else.
  message 'Enter the correct input' type 'E'.
endif.

Thanks,

If you are using it in module pool programming. You have to code in under Chain..Endchain Statement. So that the field doesnt get grayed out and is available for input in edit mode.

For example:

In PAI write:

Chain.

field f1 module validate.

Endchain.

in Validate module give error message.
