Required on date to null value

[Former Member]

Hai SRM gurus,

My requirement is to make the delivery date to null value i.e user has to enter the date manually. i wrote a code in BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI. so that when i click 'shop' and start creating shopping cart in 1st step it displays the default current date in delivery date. when i click add to shopping cart and goto 2 nd step the date is set to null value now. Now when i enter the date and click continue to 3rd step again the date is set to null value. This BADI is triggering often whatever action i perform in Shopping cart. am i coding in the write badi? or do u have any solution for this?

Hi Chinna,

Your requirement can be met in another (easier) way:

1. Let the system put the current date in the Shopping Cart - this is standard behaviour.

2. The user has to complete the Shopping Cart, including all the delivery dates.

3. Code a custom check via BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI - if the delivery date for an item is the current date (it means the user forgot to maintain it), issue an error message: "Item n: Please specify the correct delivery date."

This way, you don't have to do anything in BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI, which is a good thing if you ask me.

Hi Serguei,

But how would this ensure that the date is set to null???...The user might change the date to any other value(other then the current date).

Hi Deepti,

The way I understand it, the main business requirement is for the user to enter/change each date manually. Setting the date to null is just one of the ways to achieve this requirement, not the requirement in itself.
