Hi i am creating a table with few date and time fields as well. while i generate TMG for that as two screen, it doesnot show date and time fields on the overview screen. it shows those fields only on the single screen. any idea?

hi kumar,

i also had same kind of issue. you can solve it by using it as one step, then it will show the date and time fields as well.

Still if you want it as two step then let me know.

HI

One step, two step in Table Maintenance Generator

Single step: Only overview screen is created i.e. the Table Maintenance Program will have only one screen where you can add, delete or edit records.

Two step: Two screens namely the overview screen and Single screen are created. The user can see the key fields in the first screen and can further go on to edit further details.

Hi Kumar,

In 2 view TMG, you can see only the key fields in 1st screen. Date and time fields which you are mentioning might not be the key fields for you. Hence you will not be able to see them in the first screen. You should be able to see them only after checking the key fields and in second screen.

Hello,

In the SM30 , if some of the fields are missing in the single screen, which is other than u201CCHARu201D or u201CNUMCu201D type, then we should follow the below step:

1. Execute the program MSVIMF21.

2. Put the break- point on the line 621.

3. Now go to the ztable, Go to Table maintenance generator enter all the fields based on our requirement, like function group, authorization group, screen no, recording and click on create button to create TMG.

4. It will take us in the debugging mode of the standard program.

5. Click on <w_dfies>-rollname in the debugging mode, if this comes empty or other than char or numc, take the cursor to the concatenate statement with the help of u201CGO TO Statementu201D, or we can change the roll name as CHAR in the debug mode

6. The above we need to done at the time of TMG creation.

7. The reason for the above is:

with release 4.6B, SAP has redesigned the screen generator for SM30 according to usability guidelines that had been approved at that time. And it was one point, that usually character fields contain data to be shown in an overview screen while numbers, values, dates etc. should be placed on a detail screen.
