Hello indhumathi.kts,

When you call SM30, you will see a block "Restrict Data Range." Select radio button labeled "Enter conditions." You will see a pop-up box labeled "Field Selection" or something similar. Click on fields you want to filter on. Then another pop-up box labeled "Determine Work Area: Entry" will appear. Put the values you want to display here.

Kind Regards,

Hi Rae Ellen/Kiran,

Thanks for your reply,

There are no issues when i process the option in menu 'Selection criteria->by contents'. My only problem is same fillter process will not happen for 'Position'. Perhaps its filltering by first column alone but i need to fillter any value which presents in TMG as i have created TCode for this.

best regards

Indhu,

POSITION and Filter are two different things.If you have 2 records say

BUKRS WERKS

1234 ABC

5678 XYZ

Iif you feed the value 1234 in the bukrs field in the pop up after clikcing the POSITION button,then that particular record will be the first record of the display view in the TMG.means the cursor will be there on the record.It will not FILTER.

If you choose the BUKRSr field in the pop up that came after choosing the radio button ENTER CONDITIONS and then give the value 1234 then the TMG will show ONLY that paritcular record.

yes , you are right. it will not fillter but the cursor should come to the exact position right? It is not coming. This is the case here...

Indhu,

I hope you would have created a tcode for this table maintenance generator.If so,go to se93 and in the default values sub screen give it as UPDATE_LTD = 'X' that will give you a pop up to define filter criteria which is similar to the one mentioned in the above reply but that is through SM30 and what I am saying is through the Ztransaction code.Ideally once you generate a TMG there should be no problem with the POSITION.
