Hi,

I created one segment with 21 fields and calling from Zprogram.

in that segment some fields are Mandatory.

if i gave segment is Mandatory it is not validating fields.

Where i need to validate this Mandatory fields and how?

Thanks in Adv.

Hi,

You cant set the mandatory setting to fields of a segment. You can only set the segment as mandatory. Even if one fields of a mandatory segment is filled, it means the segment is filled.

You can check whether the field is populated or not in your code. I hope you are doing a outbound IDOC from SAP. In your case, you need to check whether field was populated in your Z program before generating the IDOC.

Hi,

Your approach is correct.

Check the table (or check the field in the segment). If initial/blank, drop the record.
