Selection screen: Mandatory fields

Former Member — Fri, 14 Aug 2009 04:35:18 GMT

Hi,

As we all know, If the fields in a selection screen are mandatory, there will be a small tick box inside that field. Suppose if a field is not mandatory(obligatory), can we still push a tick box symbol to those fields. Is there a way to push the mandatory symbol into non-mandatory fields??

Thats a weird requirement. So you mean you just want to display a field as obligatory but not mandatory in real?

Hi Vishnu,

This is not possible.

we can actualy make a field mandatory with out using 'OBLIGATORY' key word, by adding validation on field like

IF field Is INITIAL.

Message .....

ENDIF.

but we cant add tick mark in the field without using 'OBLIGATORY' key work.

hi..

this is not good requirement

still u can try the following logic

create a check box and assign a user command for it

when we change the value of that field in at selection screen event will be trigered

in that loop at screen table and change the required field to 0

i didnt tried this logic. Seems it will work

you have another optio like doing it in program

by giving condition.

I think the requirement is misunderstood.

Vishnu , The mandatory check in requirement may be context specific i.e. The field is set mandatory based on the value of some other influencing fields.

If thats the case,you can change the property by loop at screen.endloop. in at selection screen output event.

we cannot have an optional filed with mandatory property.

Thanks,

AJR

I think the program still requires slight correction. Please find the below code and help.

REPORT  ztest_prg.

       c_insp  TYPE c.

SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK bal WITH FRAME TITLE txt3.

SELECTION-SCREEN: END OF BLOCK bal.

SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK val WITH FRAME TITLE txt1.
SELECT-OPTIONS  : s_specif FOR estrh-subid OBLIGATORY MODIF ID r1.
SELECT-OPTIONS  : s_plant  FOR plko-werks MODIF ID r1 .
PARAMETER       : p_chgnum TYPE aenr-aennr MODIF ID r1.
SELECTION-SCREEN: END OF BLOCK val.

SELECTION-SCREEN: BEGIN OF BLOCK upd WITH FRAME TITLE txt2.
