I did created the routine , but really wondered how it works..

because when I have put debugger in my routine it ia not at allgoing to the routine:(

So could anybody please help me in that

HI,

Yes it is possible.

Make use of the events available.

On the table maintainance generator screen go to Environment->Modification-->Events.

You can add your code in the events available.

Hi,

You can assign check table for the field and while doing the same in the messages to be raised you can simply provide the message that you want to raise.

Also you can use events in maintainence program as Ankur has specified above you can assign a routine for new entries which is event 5 and in the subrotine you can put you check.

Hi,

go to the table maintainence that is go to se11 display the table go to table maintaincene generator there go Environment->Modification >events.

You have to be in the table maintainence screen there you would find the events.

Hi,

It depends upon the event which you have chosen.

Currently which event have you chosen?

Hi,

Well check if every thing is activated properly because if it is the control should go in the subroutine that you have created i hipe you are using event 5 for create new entries for validation so for every new entry when you save the control should definetly go there.

I have saved with event 5.

but its not going to the routine.

is there any specific way to activate it??

[Former Member]

Hi,

When you create the entry give a subroutine name under form routine for that entry then you would see an icon appear under EDitor click on that to create the subroutine put your logic in the subroutine save and activate and then check.

Hi Himanshu,

did the same way.

put the debugger on my code and when I am entering a new entry in SM30 iot is not going to debugging:(

[Former Member]

Check the include where you ahve created is active, check the function group where you ahve your maintainence generator is active/generated. There is nothing else you ahve to do.

Hi Kusum,

For change it would suggest to come to your maintainence and at PAI in your between your chain-endchain on fieldbefore endchain create a module.

do thebelow check and put your validations:

IF STATUS-ACTION = 'U'.

so if the field status-action is u you are changing the entry for the current row.

Sorry Himanshu , Still not getting where exactly to code this..

could you please explain in more detail..

[Former Member]

Hi,

Go to the table maintainence generator and then navigate to the screen which has been created. There you would have some code like below

PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
 MODULE LISTE_EXIT_COMMAND AT EXIT-COMMAND.
 MODULE LISTE_BEFORE_LOOP.
 LOOP AT EXTRACT.
   MODULE LISTE_INIT_WORKAREA.
   CHAIN.
     <<<<<Here you would have your fields from the table
    MODULE SET_UPDATE_FLAG ON CHAIN-REQUEST.
    MODULE UPDATE_CHANGE.   <<<<<Add a module like this
   ENDCHAIN.

Then double click on themodule name and create it then put a code like below in the module

MODULE UPDATE_CHANGE INPUT.
IF STATUS-ACTION = 'U'.   <<< This is the check for change
field1 = SY-DATUM.
 field2= SY-UNAME.
ENDIF.

ENDMODULE.                 " UPDATE_CHANGE  INPUT

Thanks Himanshu,

really appreciate your reply:)

As i don't know much about module pool programing but it is so straight forward.

I will try this and let you know .
