Making Equipment field mandatory not allowing to select equipment from structure list?

[Former Member]

Hello All,

we have configured a notification for "Equipment failure " as EQ.

Now when a person is trying to create a notification the system asks for to fill-up the  fields which are mandatory.

but when it comes to "Equipment" which is mandatory in OIAO( influence setting),system is not allowing user to select the same using structure list as the field is mandatory, so no chance to access for structure list unless the equipment field is updated.

It is not a good practice as no one will know for which equipment number  the process is going on as there are thousands of master equipments are there.

please suggest solution if any on same.

please check attached file.

thanks,

Kiran.

Hello Kiran,

Such are the problems with checks using customizing. These can be easily overcome through user-exits. Use user-exit QQMA0014 for this purpose (After removing your OIAO settings). The following code (in the include ZXQQMU20 of the above exit) gives you the result.

IF i_viqmel-qmart = 'EQ'  and i_viqmel-equnr IS INITIAL.
     MESSAGE: 'Please fill Equipment field' TYPE 'E' DISPLAY LIKE 'I'.
ENDIF.
