Delimit does not copy dependent entries in customer-defined table

104 Views

Hi all,

I am facing out a problem with delimitation of dependent entries in a customer-defined table as the dependent entries are not copied. The problem seems similar to SAP Note 352096, but affects customer-defined tables.

Background:

I have two tables, which are linked via primary and foreign keys (inidicated with underline):

tab1: sgrp endda begda

tab2: sgrp endda step text

I generated the respective maintenance views and activated also the time-dependency for the tab1 maintenance. The maintenance is done in a viewcluster, where both tables are also linked with their foreign keys. The delimitation in general works for tab1, but the entries in tab2 are not copied, what I would expect (rf. SAP Note above and SAP standard functionality).

To describe more preciously the expected behaviour, I try to outline the circumstances:

This is, what I have maintained within the viewcluster:

Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 01.01.2000

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step1

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step2

After delimit the first entry I have the following result:

Stepgroup1 31.12.2000 01.01.2000

Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 01.01.2001

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step1

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step2

I would expect the following result:

Stepgroup1 31.12.2000 01.01.2000

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.2000 Step1

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.2000 Step2

Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 valid from 01.01.2001

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step1

|--- Stepgroup1 31.12.9999 Step2

So, the delimitation for the first table tab1 works fine, but not for the dependent entries. Does anyone of you has any idea?

Thanks a lot in advance
