You must chain the module generating the error message with the on screen field.

Syntax in screen PAI:

FIELD <dialog_field_name> MODULE <module_name>.

Note: <module_name> should be the name of the module generating the error message.

If you need to keep multiple fields "open" then you raise the error message then use CHAIN ... ENCHAIN as follows:

CHAIN.

FIELDS: <dialog_field_name1>, <dialog_field_name2>.

MODULE <module_name>.

ENDCHAIN.

Hope this helps!

Hi Ankur,

You can give a message of type 'I' and after the message exit from the code so that the next steps are not performed.

code:

If Field1 is initial.

message 'Please enter a valid value for Field1' type 'I'.

EXIT.

endif.

Hope it helps.

Thanks Anju but this is not solving the purpose as it is showing information popup but still if user clicks on save button it is allowing him to save the data though the destination field is wrong.Requirement is not to allow user to save the data until the destination is correct and the same time it should not lock the screen so that he can change is destination field without starting from initial

Is your enhancement called at save also... If yes then check if you have written EXIT after the message.. If the enhancement is not called at save you need to find another exit that is called at save and write your code there as well

Hope this helps...
