problem with message id

[Former Member]

Hi I use message statement like:

message id 'zwm' type 'W' number 018.

And as 018 text i write "Example text".

So when I call statement as above I should see "Example text".

But I can see "zwm:018" and don't know why 😕

What do I wrong ??

Please help

Hi,

There is no message-text for that message id so goto that class through forward navigation and write ur message and try it again. I think it will come .

for any futher clarifications post me again.

Plzz reward points if it helps.

Hi,

This may help you, just go through this one.

syntax.

... ID mid TYPE mtype NUMBER num ...

The message class, the message type and the message number are specified as content of the data objects mid, mtype and num (dynamic form). For mid and mtype, character-type data objects are expected that must contain the message class resp. the message type in capital letters. Invalid message types create an uncatchable exception. For num, a data object of the type n and the length 3 is expected.

Note

The explicit specification of the message class overrides the addition MESSAGE-ID of the statement that introduces the program.

Example:

As example for alternative 2, with dynamic specification of the message and the message type.

DATA: mid TYPE sy-msgid VALUE 'SABAPDOCU',

mtype TYPE sy-msgty VALUE 'I',

num TYPE sy-msgno VALUE '014'.

MESSAGE ID mid TYPE mtype NUMBER num.

nothing wrong with your statment..

use capitals ...it works

message id 'ZWM' type 'W' number 018.

*message id 'zwm' type 'W' number 018.
