Validation

[Former Member]

I m building a custom screen for characteristics .

If i refer the same dataelement for my screen wont be the validation done automatically.

i.e for characteristic name field i m refering the same dataelement as in CT04, in standard screen its not allowing the special character but in my screen its allowing.

I want to know whether we have to do validation even though we refer a standard dataelement.

Thanks in advance.

The screen field for Characterstics is Char data type. So it takes all the characters including special characters so Do some validation in ur program.

write some code in PAI of screen like -

IF f_pernr cn 'abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ '.

MESSAGE E000(000) WITH 'WRONG VALUE'.

ENDIF.

the domain ATNAM is char 30 field so it is taking any value .

you have to validate as per your screen field.
