Make PR header text mandatory in ME51N or atleast error message if initial

[former_member16044]

HI all,

I need to make PR PR header text mandatory in ME51N or atleast error message I have to display in case PR header text is not entered. I tried with SHD0 and tried to chek the BADI's and user-exits,I didn't find any answer. Please tell me if I have followed the incorrect step or solution

Check BADI "ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST", method "CHECK".

Edit : Call the method IM_HEADER->IF_LONGTEXTS_MM~GET_TEXT with parameter IM_TDID = 'B01' to get the header text in the above mentioned BADI method. If the internal table structure for EX_TEXTLINES is initial, raise an error message.

Thanks alot. But I am not able to create IM_HEADER object of type IF_LONGTEXTS_MM, as IM_HEADER is the parameter of main CHECK method of ME_PROCESS_REQ_CUST BAdi. if I try to make some other object of type IF_LONGTEXTS_MM in get_text method, the ME51N is giving dump while saving a PR. Please elaborate your answer.

I don't think there is any problem in implementing the validation in CHECK method. See the sample code below

DATA : lt_textlines TYPE mmpur_t_textlines.
REFRESH : lt_textlines.
CALL METHOD im_header->if_longtexts_mm~get_text(
  EXPORTING
    im_tdid      = 'B01'
  IMPORTING
    ex_textlines = lt_textlines ) .
IF lt_textlines[] IS INITIAL.
   MESSAGE 'Header text not available' TYPE 'E'.
ENDIF.

Thanks Vinod, I was wrongly using the object class definition syntax, as this is the first time I am working with BAdi
