Creating a view cluster

Hi ,

I created a view cluster which contains a hierachy of 3 tables .

In trasaction sm34 when I give the entries for 1st table and choose the 2nd table, the entries that i have given already in 1st table is not coming automatically for the 2nd table .. what will be the reason.

hi Gincy

You can first split 3 tables with a lot of fields into various views and then collect them into a view cluster.

Use tabs to format very wide tables with a lot of fields.

When you generate the maintenance dialog, (as u done by SM34) flag the key fields which are identical in the view and its higher-level in the cluster, with the maintenance attribute S. The system fills the key fields when you go from the upper to the lower level, with the values of the data record selected in the upper level

Hi,

Just check the dependencie u have defined and all the relatins between the tables and its predecessor and successor relations.

Something u have done wrong there in defining the relations...

Check it once...

Cheers,

SIMha.

(1) Establish foreign keys relations between the tables

(2) Create maintenance dialog for main table

(3) Create maintenance view for dependant tables, declare keys of the main table as fields used to for subset. (Maintenance attribute of field)

(4) Use this maintenance view and not the table for defining maintenance dialog

(5) Create and manage the cluster, defining the main table as starting table and the maintenance view, Dep as 'S', the system should be able to create field-dependencies alone.

Hi Gincy,

A view cluster is the set of objects, such as views, reports or tables which belong to one business function. The data can be arranged either hierarchically or non-hierarchically in view clusters.

A view-cluster transaction edits the complex cross-table data in a view cluster. The transaction navigation box shows the complex business object with its components or subobjects.

Some useful links are given below.
