Use of Value table

257 Views

Hello All,

While go through SAP documentation for Value table, i found the following information:

"The value range of a field can be also defined by specifying a value table in domain.

In contrast to fixed values, however, simply specifying a value table does not cause the input to be checked.

If you enter a value table, the system can make a proposal for the foreign key definition.


A value table only becomes a check table when a foreign key is defined. If you refer to a domain with a value table in a field, but no foreign key was defined at field level, there is no check."

What I understood from the above is that, value table validation does not work, unless and until we define foreign key. Then what is the use of having a value table at domain level, giving a foreign key relationship will act as input check?

Thanks in advance,
