Transaction SM30 enter T024d press button Find dialog ... it will find the corresponding view (V_T024D) and you could press Customizing to find where this view is manage in the customizing

And after you could play with SM30, LSMW, ecatt, Gui Scripting whatever you want

As said Frederic: "ecatt, Gui Scripting". And I add "batch input".

There's also the function module VIEW_MAINTENANCE_NO_DIALOG, but it's not intended to be used by customers, and I don't even know if it's really for the goal that its name let suppose.

Sandra Rossi VIEW_MAINTENANCE_NO_DIALOG requires to provide the Transport Request number which will capture those entries But the problem and the Business Analyst who will be using this program will never have authorization to create trin production

 VIEW_MAINTENANCE_SINGLE_ENTRY does not require but I have to submit save and return to the previous screen :(

if it is too complex do a simple batch input or a program that call the transaciton

you could record your bdc using SHDB transaction

the problem is not complexity ,the problem is 1.I have to remain in the same program 2.I have to catch the error also..if there is any

Re: Update T024D table

FredericGirod — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 10:30:05 GMT

so use CALL TRANSACTION ... USING bdcdata ..

https://wiki.scn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/Batch+Input+-+BDC

you could catch error, and you stay in your program

Sandra_Rossi — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 12:29:46 GMT

Jonathan Blavatsky Can you explain why you think Frederic did not read your comments?

Re: Update T024D table

former_member2492 — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 12:43:31 GMT

Sandra Rossi them do not answer my question on how t o catch the error...

Re: Update T024D table

FredericGirod — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 12:47:44 GMT

I assume you read the help

CALL TRANSACTION ta WITH|WITHOUT AUTHORITY-CHECK
USING bdc_tab { {[MODE mode] [UPDATE upd]}
| [OPTIONS FROM opt] }
[MESSAGES INTO itab]

Addition 4

... MESSAGES INTO itab

Effect

Using this addition, all the messages sent during batch input processing are saved to an internal table itab of the type BDCMSGCOLL from ABAP Dictionary.

Jonathan Blavatsky Okay, it was just a misunderstanding, Frederic probably supposed that you would read the whole wiki and documentation of CALL TRANSACTION. It's a little bit offensive to say that your comments are not read, though. It happens to anybody to not read enough, it's human, just repeat, possibly in a different way because maybe your first comment was read but not understood.

Sandra Rossi Frederic Girod thanks but how do you solve the part that it requires a customizing request? do you create one and transport it into production? let me know

Re: Update T024D table

FredericGirod — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 13:53:45 GMT

Run your CALL TRANSACTION in mode 'E' means Error. When you will save the data, SAP will open a windows requesting the transport request. You will just have to specify it manually at this moment.

I think your initial question is now fully answered, and I think you should start to work in your side

Good luck

the transport request is a problem...I will wait for an alernative solution hopefully ,if not then this is not an option from my side.I have awarded your effort with an upvote.

Sandra_Rossi — Fri, 01 Nov 2019 14:43:44 GMT

Jonathan Blavatsky Why is it a problem? If the users want to maintain the table in the DEV system, they will have to assign the changes to a transport request and transport it to the production system. If the users want to maintain the table in production only, then you have the possibility to deactivate the transport in the production system by using the "current setting" flag (cf notes 523213 - Set maintenance view in production system to changeable, Note 135028 - Transfer IMG activity to current setting, 356483 - Customizing: Current settings in the test system, and eventually 351041 - Recording routine for table content to deactive the transport request also in DEV system...)
