Former Member — Wed, 30 Dec 2015 08:43:32 GMT

Hi gurus. I Have screen no 100 ( main screen). in this screen i have kunnr field. Then i called a sub screen 110. In the sub screen 110 i have 'land1' is mandatory and 'name1' is optional. And TWO PUSH BUTTONS 'DISPLAY' AND 'SAVE' . After giving 'kunnr' if i entered a 'display' button

land1 and name1 should be fill.Because of Land1 is mandatory in sub screen the error raised 'fill required data' after i enter KUNNR . if i changed land1 is mandatory to recommended the problem is solved. so i want solution with land1 is mandatory but i want details.

Thanking you.

Hi Srinivas,

I suggest you to remove the mandatory to the land1, and try to raise the popup to warn that that the mandatory field should not be blank do you wish to continue.

Please refer the below code.

data: land1 TYPE land1,

LV_ANSWER TYPE STRING.

IF land1 is INITIAL .

CALL FUNCTION 'POPUP_TO_CONFIRM'

EXPORTING

TEXT_QUESTION = 'Land 1 is mandatory field and cannot be blank do you wish to continue still'

IMPORTING

ANSWER = LV_ANSWER.

IF LV_ANSWER = '1'.

* Proceed further

ELSE.

* Stop ,

ENDIF.

Output:

Thanks and Regards,

Girish Kumar V.

Hi girish ,

thanks for giving replay. here i have two push buttons i.e., 'DISPLAY' And 'SAVE'. We don't know the end user may click on 'SAVE' at that time he takes help( drop down) at that time the empty space occurs so my client ask i don't want to see that empty space. Then i need to use 'LAND1' field as a mandatory.

Firstly I hope that the push buttons are standard (ie the save in the toolbar) etc ?

Secondly, SAP generally has different transactions for display and edit variants, the screen attributes are changed at run time dependant on either the Transactiuon type (defined in T180-TrTyp), or with reference to the transaction code.

In your PBO have a module that loops around the screen (LOOP AT Screen) and modify the field attributes according to either a transaction coede or a transaction type.

hi,

In PAI of main screen...

use statement CALL SUBSCREEN <subscreen area> after the module where you are fetching data for name1 and land1..

the flow of the screen will be PAI(100)-->> PAI(101)--->PBO(100)--->PBO(101).

now it's up to you where you want to assign the values to screen field (before PAI of 101) and you can also change the properties of screen field using LOOP AT SCREEN based on whether field is blank or not.

thanks!!

Hi,

are you passing this mandatory field to any select query??

Re: mandatory fields

Former Member — Thu, 31 Dec 2015 04:50:34 GMT

yes, while customer click on DISPLAY data fetch from kna1 and fill on screen for this i write.

in pai.

if sy-ucomm = 'DISP'.

select single * from kna1 into corresponding fields of w_kna1 where kunnr = w_kna1-kunnr.

elseif sy-ucomm = 'save'.

data should be saved in kna1 table.

endif.

what's the use of making LAND1 field mandatory when you are not passing it to any select query, make it recommended and put validation according to field values, it will resolve all your issues.

Re: mandatory fields

Former Member — Thu, 31 Dec 2015 05:36:54 GMT

Thanks but if i make as recommended while he take drop down option( i dint show that. I forgot to add in the screen) Empty space will come. If i make as required only data will appear with out space. Actually my scenario is different for analyze purpose i post small scenario.

hi,

check the screen shot.. in my select query.. give customer number does not contain name which I am passing to mandatory field (after putting validation not actual mandatory), if it is initial it will give error message.

and then I manually enter data to it..

it give an information message that field is not initial.

make your logic like this by putting validation on LAND1 field after USER-commands

thanks!!

my actual image.

output screen.

Re: mandatory fields

Chintu6august — Thu, 31 Dec 2015 06:13:32 GMT

first write statement CALL SUBSCREEN <subarea> after USER-COMMAND module, so your user command's get execute first then in PAI of sub-screen validate LAND1 field simple.

thanks!!

no not working chintu.

PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
CALL SUBSCREEN SUB1 INCLUDING SY-REPID '0300'.
MODULE STATUS_0210.

PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE USER_COMMAND_0210.
CALL SUBSCREEN SUB1.

MODULE EXIT AT EXIT-COMMAND.

Hi Srinivas,

By default make land1 file non-editable and after pressing 'DISPLAY' button use loop at screen in PBO event and set screen-input and screen-required equal to 1.

LOOP AT SCREEN.

IF kunnr is not initial.

IF screen-name = 'LAND1'.

screen-input = '1'.

screen-required = '1'.

MODIFY SCREEN.

ENDIF.

ENDLOOP.

Thanks and Regards,
