SM30 / View Maintainance Call problem with Position button

Former Member — Mon, 09 Nov 2009 16:21:55 GMT

We are having an issue with the position button on Tcode SM30 and Function View Maintenance Call. When we press the position button and try to enter a material number (matnr element, with links to the correct databases) and then click on ok, it doesn't found materials that we know are on the Ztable.

Experimenting, I found that entering the complete number with all the leading zeroes finds the correct item, so my guess is that the Position button doesn't use the conversion alpha exit. A test with a Ztable where the made up code fills up the entire code space shows it finds the data correctly, so it seems that completion is the issue, reinforcing the idea that the conversion alpha exit (wich is correctly associated to the matnr domain) is not working in positioning.

Any pointers or ideas will be appreciated.

This was a problem with the place we had coded the solution. It wasn't that incomplete were not found and complete were, it was that it requiered two tries to find the material. In other words, it worked half the time, misleading us in the problem detection phase.
