Modify Screen statement works for screen-active but doesn't for screen-input

[saudshaikh]

Hi All,

I tried to make Req Date field changeable on the Components tab of Order Screen programmatically by setting screen-input = 1 within "loop at screen". But it has no effect and I noticed that in next "loop at screen" statement itself as it's set back to 0. However, screen-active behaves alright (default is active = 1 and I changed to active = 0), see below the color change:

Location of Enhancement:

I tried via FM "CO_MF_COMPONENT" and also at other places (FM "CO_MF_COMPONENT_MODIFINVISIBLE") but same issue. Now, this field and others on it's right are provided via Switch "EAM_SFWS_OPER_COMP_LIST_ENH". This odd behavior is only for these fields, others for example: Description, is also, by default Display only, but on setting the input = 1 it works.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

I suspect it's due to the attribute Ouptut Only being checked.

Yes, it is due to that Program Attribute: Output Only being checked.
