We have some input textbox on the screen and want to process this textbox before user's next actionabap-visitor.jpg. For example, there is an employee textbox. When user entered employee number, we have to capture some details of employee based on entered employee number. A screenshot attached herewith.

I don't understand at all. Can you give a real example? Maybe with a screenshot to make it more clear?

If I understand your unasked question correctly, you want the input/tabbing from one field to the next to trigger a processing in your program (thus a PAI/PBO cycle)

In classic dynpro, this is only possible on a limited set of screen elements (checkbox, options, dropdown list, etc.) and trigger by selection of value click on box and not the tab key or a move of mouse cursor...

It is therefore not possible in your example.

You could

  • disable the input of the following fields and force the user to use the Enter key to move to the next field, but but it's not really user-friendly?
  • add a dummy function code to the two dropdown lists defined in the screen, but the data will be updated only when those are used.
  • fill the name field when user select an employee with the search help
