Hai Shivakumar
go through the following Document
1. specially function group.. what is its significance
When we generate table maintenance,
the system , based upon the table fields,
automatically,
generates
PROGRAM CODE, SCREEN FOR ENTERING DATA,
LOGIC FOR SAVING DATA, LOGIC FOR DISPLAYING DATA
ETC.
2. All this are BUNCHED under
a FUNCTION GROUP
(if you open that function group in se80, after
creatting table maintenacne,
u will see the program code, screens, gui status etc)
3. Hence, to BUNCH all these various objects,
SAP uses the concept of function group.
*----
4. And also why do we need to give two screens there
Its not necessary to have to screens.
5. ONE SCREEN MEANS:
only one screen with table control to enter data
TWO SCREEN means :
first screen : only primary key fields will appear
second screen : rest of the fields will appear to enter data
6. When the table consists of many fields,
its practically more convenient to have two screens,
so that all fields come vertically downwards.
(instead of scrolling horizontally in the table
control, in case of one screen concept)
The use of the FG is only this the Table Maintainance Generator part. Neednt be declared anywhere else.
yes u need to create a FG and the use it in Table maint. gen.
