Where are you triggering the message? If it's at START-OF-SELECTION event, try using MESSAGE 'Your message' TYPE 'S' DISPLAY LIKE 'E', then a STOP to get back to selection-screen.

Hi Meriem,

You should write the validation and error message inside the event AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON <Field> where <Field> is the name of your selection screen field. Then it will show the error and only open that field as editable to correct the error.

You can check the below SAP help document.

Is it a SELECTION-SCREEN or a MODULE POOL, In both case, if you want that the field or group of fields to be input allowed, you have to code it correctly.

In module pool :

FIELD fieldname MODULE checkmodule.
CHAIN.
FIELD field1.
FIELD field2.
MODULE cheeckfields AT CHAIN-INPUT.
ENDCHAIN.

In selection-screen

AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON field.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON BLOCK b01.

For ressource consuming statement, before the SELECT statement add a check like

IF sscrfields-ucomm = 'ONLI' or sscrfields-ucomm = 'PRIN'.

so following statements will only be executed when user request execution and not when Enter is pressed.

Check via F1 or at help.sap.com for syntax of those statements. Read also MESSAGE statement documentation.

Raymond
