Hi Chandrasekhar

To make particular input field mandatory

DATA lr_inputui1 TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_fe_input_field.

CREATE OBJECT lr_inputui1

EXPORTING

value_elementname = 'CARRID'.

lr_inputui2->set_state( 01 ).

Thanks and Regards

Hello Friends,

Thanks for your reply. I just wanted to elaborate more on this so that others will benefit from this thread.

I used method SET_STATE from class CL_SALV_WD_UIE_A_INPUT which is super class for class CL_SALV_WD_UIE_INPUT_FIELD.

The code looks as below,

Data: lr_input_field TYPE REF TO cl_salv_wd_uie_input_field.

CALL METHOD lr_input_field->set_state

EXPORTING

value = cl_wd_abstract_input_field=>e_state-required.

well, I just forgot to check super class and its available methods...But got clear hint from Tulasi.

Thanks to all.

Hi Chandra,

I don't think there is direct way to achieve the same,However you can use following approach to achieve it.

1.Set Table Cell editor(Input Field) property "state" to required so that you will get mandatory symbol(*) for that field

2.check the value of input field in the event handler of "ON_DATA_CHECK" event.if the value is initial,display appropriate message on screen.

Hope this helps..

Hallo Chandra,

yes there is no method for it. You can set the field property required set to true to indicate visually it is mandatory. On server side you need to do the control if it is empty or valid value is filled in.
