call transaction PB40

[Former Member]

hi folks,

I have an issue related to the transaction 'PB40' I am trying to perform certain action event like 'First interview' for an applicant on a date before the advertisement posting date for which I have programmed to generate an pop up error message when I check that box, it brings me back to ' Applicant action' (PB40) screen. Now if I change the action date to date after advertisement date instead of creating just one new record for the given startdate it creates two records one for previous action also.

Only if I come out of 'PB40' transaction after performing the first action and start fresh to perform a new action event, it created the current record.

Can anyone help me understand what is going on here? How can I fix it?

Thanks,

Well, it sounds like you need to refresh an internal table after the first error is generated.

Thanks, for the reply. I have the 'refresh' command given in the code that empties the internal table. Infact I ran the program in the debug mode and I found the internal table had no records while performing the action for the second time.

Is it related to some dynamic action while using the transaction 'PB40'?

If you use ST05, you should be able to see exactly how the table is being updated.
