Message Class for Validations

[Former Member]

Dear Experts,

We are on SAP 4.6C. I am trying to create a validation on WBS elements

for a project. Using transaction GGB0. I would like to issue an error

message from a different custom message class. However, I cannot

change the message class for the WBS element validation. The "Message

ID" field on the Create/Change Validation screen is greyed out and the

Extras -> Change Message Class is also greyed out.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Venkat.

You need to take the help of the Abaper to create a new message class and message texts in Abap user ID in SE91.

You have to jump to the "Callup Point" level. You should be able to change the message class for the whole "Callup Point" and subsequently for all the underlaying Validations.

Can't help you with this one, I can just confirm the behaviour. However, this question is far from BPM and Workflow. Perhaps you should ask the same question in one of the ABAP Development forums (and add a pointer to it from here and close this question).

It's not easy to tell which forum is most appropriate. Perhaps the "Enhancements and Modifications" forum could be said to be appropriate, as the validations and substitutions can be said to be a sort of enhancement technique. I am sure someone there will disagree, but that's the only candidate I see besides "ABAP, General".
