Hi All,

I am using a field P0009-ZLSCH for payment method on a z screen taking it from dictionary. But when i run it taking any value, lets say 'P' , it throughs an error 'Entry P does not exist in T042Z (check entry)'. Though there is an entry for P in table T042z table.

also to add, when i remove the foreign key check on screen painter it does not through any error.

Please help.

Thanks.

Nazish.

This validation is set in the foreign key,

just check the foreign key details of the table, there will be a check box marked screen check required.

check the foriegn key details of field P0009-ZLSCH .

if you want the screen to accept any values then donot refer it to a db field name.

instead declare in the program .

data:field1 type p0009-ZLSCH.

now in screen field give name 'field1'.

I think validating the entry in PAI will solve the problem.

Thanks for you reply keshav...

i know what you are saying but i wantfield to check for the valid entry. Here the entry exist in table ,But still m getting this error.

i have checked in the check table that there are 2 key field one for payment method and other for land1 type but i have passed both the value still the error persist.

Hi,

I suspect there is a conversion exit exist for this field. If so, please refer your screen field also to the same exit.

Is the domain of the field case sensitive? Did you try selecting the value from F4 help?

Thanks,

Hi,

Not sure. As a last option, can you delete the field from the screen and recreate again? You can click on from dictionary option in the toolbar of the screen painter to inherit the dictionary attributes properly.

Thanks,
