Validation needed

Former Member — Wed, 13 Feb 2008 06:37:46 GMT

1. I have a field for pancard no which should allow you to enter "apup678n" ( alphanumeric only). It should not allow to enter the special character like $#%^&. How to validate this field?

2. I have a field called name which should allow you to enter only alphabets. How to validate this?

Thanks in advance.

Pon,

DATA : v_num TYPE i,

v_cnt TYPE i.

EX: PARAMETERS : p_pancard LIKE xxxxxxx.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.

v_num = strlen( p_pancard ).

Do v_num TIMES.

v_cnt = v_cnt + 1.

IF p_pancard+o(v_cnt) CA '$#%^&.'.

Message e000(zmp).

ENDIF.

ENDDO.

Validation For Alphabets.

EX: PARAMETERS : p_alphabets LIKE xxxxxxx.

AT SELECTION-SCREEN.

v_num = strlen( p_alphabets ).

Do v_num TIMES.

v_cnt = v_cnt + 1.

IF p_alphabets+o(v_cnt) CA '0123456789'.

Message e000(zmp).

ENDIF.

ENDDO.

Don't forget to reward if useful....

Hi,

For checking name, use sy-abcde. This will ensure only alphabets are there in the name.

Reward if Helpful.

Hi dude,

Declare the PAN No., and Name fields to type c ,

if the entered value is not of the type C,the system will automatically generate error message.

I suppose you need not carry out any validations.

Reward if useful.

Hi Laxmanan , i think the special charachters like #*% are also considered as characters so the system will accpet that.

Hi,

For checking PAN number, please try the following.

data: pan_number(10) type c.

data: first_five_char(5) type c.

data: sixth_to_ninth(4) type c.

data: last_char(1) type c.

*for the characters of PAN card having 10 characters

*checking the first five characters to eb alphabets, the sixth to ninth as integers and the last character as an alphabet

first_five_char = pan_number+0(5).

sixth_to_ninth = pan_number+5(4).

last_char = pan_number+9(1).

*check whether the first five characters are alphabets

IF NOT ( first_five_char CO 'aAbBcCdDeEfFgGhHiIjJkKlLmMnNoOpPqQrRsStTuUvVwWxXyYzZ' ).

MESSAGE S(001). "error message

ENDIF.

IF NOT ( sixth_to_ninth CO '1234567890' ).

MESSAGE S(002). "error message.

ENDIF.

IF NOT ( last_char CO 'aAbBcCdDeEfFgGhHiIjJkKlLmMnNoOpPqQrRsStTuUvVwWxXyYzZ' ).

MESSAGE S(003). "error message

ENDIF.

Reward if Helpful.
