Reg Table maintenance generator

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have created a table maintenance generator for a custom table and assigned T-code .

while creation T-code , i have passed view name and update = 'X'.

here my requirement is to display the data in table only, it should not allow to edit.

can you please guide me how to make all the entries in display mode.

user will maintain the table in another program using FM 'VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL'.

Thanks

 CALL FUNCTION 'VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL'
    EXPORTING
      action               = 'U'  " S=display / U=update 
      show_selection_popup = ' '
      view_name            = k_view
    TABLES
      dba_sellist          = rangetab
    EXCEPTIONS
      foreign_lock         = 2
      no_tvdir_entry       = 8.

in the report block the field in range tab and check by keeping action = 'S' for display .

You can make it display only by using authorization object(S_TABU_DIS) or by modifying the layout. But, then Even by using "'VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL' user will not be able to change the data.

As per my understanding the table maintenance should only display data when the transaction is run. In transaction maintain SHOW = X instead of UPDATE = X.

Hi sai,

Did u create Manintance view for that table?

In the Maintenance view one column with name P pass 'R' for all teh fields.

It will not allow to edit any field.

hmmm when you just need to show the entries in the table, why dont you just build a simple SALV report to read the table contents and display them?

I mean there is no need to work with 'VIEW_MAINTENANCE_CALL' for simple display options.

[SuhaSaha]

Or create a parameter transaction for SE16

This has an advantage that it will give the user a selection screen to choose the entry from ....

I think Satyajit's solution wont work as you will again have the toggle display/change mode button & the user can change the entries by pressing it.

On the other hand Pravin's idea of creating a maintenance view with all the fields having the attribute R does sound promising....
