Fill automatically Custom fields in a table

Former Member — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 14:26:31 GMT

Hi all,

I have a custom table and many se38 reports or Bapi which modify or insert records in this table.

Now from se11 I must add 4 new fields to this table that have to contain system values.

Can I write a routine which automatically fills these new fields when an insert or modify command runs on this table?

Best Regards,

Raffaele

In the past, I have created a table maintenance dialogue and filled in automatic fields at event 01 (before saving data).

I tried to use this event but it runs only when I modify table data from SM30 transaction. But are you sure that this event runs also when a Bapi or an exeecutable program runs?

thanks

No, it doesn't. You will have to do it manually yourself.

I need, instead this type of solutions. Because I manage table data by Bapi or SE38 programs. Do you know any solution?

Thanks anyway

It would be awkward, but after the program or BAPI finishes, update the table.
