Table maintennace generator is used to create screen to maintain values in a table. Once you create maint generator you can goto transaction SM30 and add data to table . In SAP it is more relevant to customizing data.

Hi Vijay,

Besides the above, you can create a table maintance program for a z table.

In transaction SE11, in the attribute tab of your Z table check table maintenance check box. Go to SM30 transaction, enter the ztable name and click on maintain button. Here you can enter new entries into the ztable .

You can create a PARAMETER TRANSACTION for the transaction for SM30 .

Follow these steps :

1. go to transaction SE93 , give your own transaction code say ztran_tab, for maintaining your ztable.

2. Click on create button and check the radio button Transaction with parameters (PARAMETER TRANSACTION) and click on the tick button.

3. In the next screen enter default values:

transaction : SM30

check the check box skip initial screen

4. Scroll down you will find a table control for default values

Name of the screen field | value

VIEWNAME | your ztable name

SHOW || X

Save your work.

Now as you have created a custom transaction for maintaining your ztable this transaction can be called from any program with CALL transaction 'XXX'.

Hi buddies,

I never expected these many helpful replies. Thank You anyway.

Let me explain you all the complexity i am facing.

In the table Maintenance screens, While the user enters the first field the second field which is a mandatory field should be automatically filled up the data which i should read from a table.

What i thought is i might write the code for that in the screen which it created, ( I am able to access the screens' code in

" 'SE11'entering my tablename...then

Utilities--->Table Maintenance generator

There...Environment--~~>Modification~~-->Maintenance screen..

There by selecting the appropriate screen i can able to reach the code.

There i should write the code for that i think in the PAI module. But the problem is .

I try to enter a module an module name, It asked me whether to create the module...i said yes. But after that it is saying that particular program is locked by the user "...".

Why this problem..is this because i am trying this in a practise development server or something else?

Also guide me whether my approach is right or wrong? If not pls guide me in a proper way.

I have an interview for the topic table controls and dialog programming along with some other topics. I know the concept of table control but trying to know the syntax of the statements and all and i was wondering what questions can be asked on that topic.
