LSMW message error

[Former Member]

Hi all,

i want to give my own error message in LSMW. i am doing coding for this in mapping step.

data : length type i.

length = strlen( sourcefield ) " source field is field that comes from flat file

if length > 15.

message ' length cant be more than 15' TYPE 'E'.

else

targetfield = source field.

now if i am giving field name more than 15 characters

it is not showing any error and record has been created. there is not any error in log

why is it so???

how would i get error for it in log.

thanks

Sachin

HI,

Incase you want to aovid the record creation then you have to give SKIP_TRANSACTION after the error message.

Hi,

LSMW steps cannot be run in background.

Only the session processing or idoc processing can be done in background.

HI,

In the field mapping step.

Validate the source field with your rules.

Use WRITe statement to display the message and use SKIP_TRANSACTIOn to skip the record.

Use FORMAT COLOR COL_NEGATIVE to display the messages in red color.

After you do the conversion step; the messages will be shown in the output of the conversion program.
