syntax error in screen

[Former Member]

hello all,

i have a custom table for which i generated table maintenance dialog. its fine in Dev. system. when i transported it to Quality, the request had import error saying the screen has error.

particularly error is 'field PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT' has length zero.

as a way around, second time, i deleted the table maintenance, transported deletion. in Quality table maintenance is correctly deleted. i ,then,created table maintenance in Dev. system afresh and transported it to Quality hoping that it would be fine this time.

but still i have same import error.

can anyone pls help me !

points are guaranteed for useful answers.

thanks !

when i try to maintain table in Q, i get below dump.

<b>Syntax error in a screen

What happened?

While generating a screen, the system discovered that it contained a

syntax error, or that it could not be generated for some other reason.

What can you do?

Make a note of the actions and input which caused the error.

To resolve the problem, contact your SAP system administrator.

You can use transaction ST22 (ABAP Dump Analysis) to view and administer

termination messages, especially those beyond their normal deletion

date.

thanks,

doesn't help much to me...

so as the other commenter suggested, you have to check if the table is the same in DEV and Q.

just to be sure about the error, i created a new table afresh, created table maintenance and transported it to QCD. still i have same problems.

[JozsefSzikszai]

can you check if the new table exists in Q? Was included in the transport?

[Former Member]

yes the new table exists in Q. i can see it in SE11

hello all,

can you pls tell me if u have come across this situation.

field PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT has length 0. this is the error i am getting when i transport screen.

useful answers will be rewarded

Hi,

might it be that a request that changes the table's structure has not been transported to your Quality system and therefore, the maintenance view is OK in DEV but produces errors in the Quality system?

Hope this help, but, please do copy the entire error message.

George
