Hi,

As mentioned by Tom, Activate required char's in Control data.

At UD system will pop up the req char window at the time of UD.

Hello.

I don't agree with you.. It seems when i have charac. long duration the system don't show message.. if i have charact with not long duration it show me message if i didn't fill charact. before.

regards.

You are correct. If a characteristic is marked as a LT characteristic, it will not cause a warning message at the time of UD even if it is a required characteristic.

Many places make all characteristics as LT simply so they can make changes and corrections to the results after the UD. But this is not how and why LT characteristics were designed by SAP. This is not an SAP best pactice and characteristics should not be set up as LT characteristics unless they are truly LT tests that you don't expect to be available until after the UD. But many consultants don't do this.

But, once having done so, the only solution you have that I can see, is to utilize a user exit to make the checks you want.

Dear,

If we are locking the Char's at the results recording stage, the req Char pop up will not appear in the UD stage.

Check without locking the chars at the results stage.

It doesn't make a difference if they are unlocked or not. A long term characteristic will not block or provide a warning at the UD.
