Disable few fields in SM30 (TMG)

[Former Member]

Hi Friends,

I have a database table which can be maintained via SM30. This table has let's say 4 fields (Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4)

Field1 has a sequence 1,2,3,4,5.......

My question here is all the 4 fields (Field1, Field2, Field3, Field4) should show up as display(non-editable) if the sequence is <= 9.

If the sequence is >9 then, show only Field1 as display(non-editable). How can I achieve this? Appreciate if anybody could help me doing this.

Example:

Field1	Field2	Field3	Field4
1 (display)	A (display)	B (display)	C (display)
2 (display)	D (display)	E (display)	F (display)
3 (display)	G (display)	H (display)	I (display)
.  (display)	. (display)	. (display)	. (display)
. (display)	. (display)	. (display)	. (display)
9 (display)	J (display)	K (display)	L (display)
10 (display)	M (Enable)	N (Enable)	O (enable)
11 (display)	P (Enable)	Q (Enable)	R (enable)

Thanks,

Honestly, the answer is to write your own screen and not use SM30.

Hi.

Create ur own program to do that and do not change the standard SM30.

Thanks Neal and Miguel for the replies. But, can you give me few ideas on how to achieve this instead of touching standard SM30.

I'd do it as a modifiable ALV Grid.

Hi,

search EDIT ALV or EDITABLE ALV

sth like this:

Even though the recommended Solution is to Create a separate program, The solution for Your Problem can be achieved as:

Hope that TMG has been generated for your table.

There are Events available in TMG which can be made used for achieving this functionality.  There are various in built events available to handle the various situations like validations etc.

Go to Table ->TMG -> Environment -> Modifications -> Events  specify the routine against the specific event and  do the required screen customization in that routine.

Hi nani,

You can also use in Module Pool using Table control.....

Hi Nani,

Your Basis/Security team has the capability to set what are called "Field status variants" that allow for certain fields to become editable/non-editable, visible/non-visible, required/not required.

As far as custom development goes, I recommend an SALV report -- try looking at the tutorials at

Hi Nani,

your can to use Menu environment on TMG. Try Modification option, those 4 options can you allow get your aim.

I think that you worked with table control will be easy for you!!!
