Making Object link a required entry

[jennifer_kramer2]

Hi Gurus-

I need to make the entry of the Network & Activity number (from Project Systems) object link a required entry in the DIR.  Is the best place to do this in the BADI method Before_Save?  Or is there a better way to accomplish this? 

Thanks for your assistance, in advance!

Hi Jennifer,

regarding your request I think that this kind of check can only be achieved with a BADI implementation of DOCUMENT_MAIN01 or DOCUMENT_OBJ. Because in the standard customizing there is no flag which could be set to made an object link mandatory. The only standard flag which might be useful here to support a BADI implementation would be the "Object check" flag for a document status. This flag can be set for each document status and you can maintain it in transaction DC10.

I hope that this information could be useful for you.

Best regards,

Christoph
