Planning - input enabled query validation

[#1]

Hi. I have an input enabled query displayed in a crosstab in Lumira. We are able to save values back to BW thru this. Question is, can we build any custom validation in Lumira before the planning.save executes? For example, if the user leaves a field blank and hits the save button, it throws an error message saying the field is blank. We want to return this message even before the panning.save is executed. Is this possible? Thanks.

Hi,

you can implement a planning function that does this check; you may expose this planning function in the UI and you should also use this planning function 'before save' (to be configured in RSPLAN) to ensure that invalid data cannot be saved.

Thanks Gregor. We tried using SAP's custom planning functions but they only take values if they already exist in the infoobject master data. With the crosstab approach, we are able to save new master data. The only issue is that we cannot validate the data before save.
