Hi Sreedhar,

Validation is to restrict the user to enter incorrect/invalid entries at selection screen. Usually we do it by putting error messages on any incorrect entry.

For example: If we have any date field on selection screen and we dont want user to enter future date in the selection screen. Then we'll put an error message so that we can restrict the user to enter the future date in that particular column.

Hope this will help you.

Regards,

Nitin.

Hi Sreedhar,

Validation-> Means before executing your selection criteria in the Report you need to check whether the entry is valid or not...also check if the data is not maintained then do not process further for executing the output.. just display a message by which the user come to know that the data is not valid.

hi

Validation: Its Validate the system where ever you required means it restrict, controls and deisgns the

system how ever you like. Ex: suppose when company code 0101 and when g/l account is 200000 the business area

should not be 0001. The above example we can configure in validation. in Validation we have header leavel and line

item leavel, if you want to validate at header leavel you have to write validation at header leavel only, like the

same for line item also. Now our example we have to write at line item leavel. There we have 3 components as below

1 prerequiste 2 check 3 message in prerqueiste we have to keep company code and g/l account in check we have to keep

business area in message we can put error or warning message. Substuition: It will substiute the Requeirment.

its also almost like validation only but here it will substuite the system. I have a documents,

i will check once and send it you.

hi

1) validation: it is used to verify the entries given by the user in the selection screen. to verify whether the user is giving valid input.

2) for example: names will be of character. if some one trying to enter number in that field and try to run/execute the program, it may lead to dump..

3) so before even executing the program the validation will be carried out in selection screen for correct entries/input.

4) normally validations( condition statements ) will be carried out in AT SELECTION EVENT.

FOR UR REFERENCE:

at selection-screen.

  • *if material-low LT 200 or

  • material-high GT 2000.

  • * message e000(01) with 'ENTER VALUES WITHIN RANGE'.

  • endif.
