How to Validate the data entered in the 'Input Field' web item in Web App Designer for Netweaver 7?

[saurav_das]

Hello Experts,

This question is specific to Web Application Designer for Netweaver 7 for use in Integrated Planning.

We need to validate the input provided by a user.

I have a "Input Field" web item in which the user should enter the value.

Based on the entered value i have to call separate planning functions which i can do by the script web item.

The field is to be mapped to a characteristic without Master Data reference.

The use case is to check if the entered values is already existing if yes then just apply a filter on the data with this value,
if it is not present then a planning function is to be called to copy the data and changing this characteristic.

So i need to only check if the entered value is existing or not.

Thanks in advance

Saurav.

Hi Saurav,

I used the input fields ever only for values which were transferred to a variable.

So maybe you could use this as well - transfer the value to a variable, use the variable in a function (probably an exit function) comparing it´s value with some master data list.
