Custom field in table VBAP for incompletion log not functioning as expected

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I am facing a strange problem while checking for incompletion log in sales order.

I appended the table VBAP with a custom field and configured it as well.

It works fine if there is any other entry in the incompletion log but doesn't works all alone.

I think SAP is not able to recognize the appended fields.

Is there anyway I could get through this?

Thanks in Advance,

Sumit .

Hi,

Have you added the field to the PAI section of the relevant subscreen in VA01? You need to add it to the chain, which triggers module VBAP_FULLEN. Otherwise the processing of validations (including incompletion log) will not be triggered for you field.

I.e. if you have added the field to the sales order item overview screen, you should make following adjustment to PAI of screen SAPMV45A 4900:

*----------------------------------------------------------------------*
* Füllen der Position, falls eine Eingabe in der Fußzeile war          *
*----------------------------------------------------------------------*

    CHAIN.

            VBAP-YYFGALOC,    "custom field name
*}   INSERT

HI Marcin,

Thanks for your reply.

I have added the custom field in Additional data A tab - screen 4459

I have inserted two new modules in PBO and PAI.

Here there is no MODULE VBAP_FUELLEN.

So I am not able to make out where to exactly code.

Please advice.

Thanks,

Sumit

Hi Sumit,

You need to create your own PAI module, which will execute similar code as in the VBAP_FULLEN (for new item) and VBAP_BEARBEITEN (for changed items) modules. I believe you can call the modules also from the screens you've mentioned. You need at least to execute the form VBAP_BEARBEITEN, in which the system executes the incompletion log check.

If you do not run the standard modules, the system will also not execute the user-exit USEREXIT_CHECK_VBAP (include MV45AFZB) mentioned in the above post when you field is changed.

Marcin

HI Marcin,

I have created an ALV on the additional data A tab.

I check for the some of the fields in ALV and update an indicator in table VBAP.

I am not using this indicator on the screen.

I want to use this field to update the incompletion log.

Please advice.

Thanks,

Sumit.

Hello All,

I was able to solve the problem.

What I did is I made an invisible field which was updating in VBAP.

And moved my PAI module before the modules that were updating VBAP as suggested

by Marcin.

Thanks to All,

Sumit.

Hi Sumit,

I appended the table VBAP with a custom field and configured it as well

It means you are filling this field and if it is an empty you need to show in in-completion log?

It works fine if there is any other entry in the incompletion log but doesn't works all alone

Can you explain this.

I think SAP is not able to recognize the appended fields

As i know through configuration itself you can keep in in-completion log but custom fields wont display in list.You need to handle with custom code.Check in MV4AFZZ

Madhu.
