When updating key figures, it is often necessary to define complex update rules.

This includes the definition of requirements which either allow or prevent the update.

The definition of requirements is subject to widely differing conditions; for this reason, a flexible medium is necessary for the definition.

Maintenance of the requirements is subdivided into the specific applications.

Activities

Select the application for which you want to maintain requirements.

An overview of all existing requirements for the selected application appears.

Create

  1. If you want to define a new requirement, enter a new number for it in the field Routine number.

    Note

    A specific name range is reserved for standard SAP requirements.

    For that reason, please use numbers 600 through 999 for your requirements.

  2. Enter an explanatory text for the requirement.
  3. If you want to save a long text which describes the requirement, proceed as follows:
    1. Position the cursor on the requirement.
    2. Select the function Long text.
      3. You branch to the SAP editor.
    3. Enter the text.
    4. Save your text.
    5. Return to the overview screen.

Create/Change

  1. To change a requirement, place the cursor on the line of the respective requirement.
  2. Select the function Source text.

    The system branches to the program editor.

    Caution

    A name is automatically predefined for the FORM routine when the requirement is defined.

    You may not change this name.

  3. Now define your requirement using ABAP language elements.

    To define the requirement, you can use all the source fields that are valid for the event you have selected for the relevant update rule and to which the requirement is to apply.

    Note

    If you use transaction SM30 to evaluate the view V_QUTAB, the system displays an overview of the source tables permitted for each event.

  4. When you define requirements, you must assign the result of the check to the Return code field.

    The following then applies:

    • Return code equals 0     requirement was satisfied
    • Return code does not equal 0     requirement was not satisfied

      The field Return code has already been defined in a common data area.

  5. Save the requirement definition.
  6. Return to the overview screen of the requirements.

Example

You want to define a requirement so that data from sales order processing is only updated if the document has been completely processed.

The completeness of document processing is recorded in the document via a status field.

FORM MCV1_600.

IF MCVBUK-UVALL = 'C'.

RETURNCODE = 0.

ELSE.

RETURNCODE = 4.

ENDIF.

ENDFORM.

Activate

A requirement definition can only be used in updating if it is active.

To activate a requirement, proceed as follows:

  1. Place the cursor on the line of the requirement you wish to activate.
  2. Select the function Edit -> Activate.

Delete

You can only delete a requirement if it is inactive.

If you want to delete a requirement, proceed as follows:

  1. Place the cursor on the line of the requirement you wish to delete.
  2. Select the function Edit -> Deactivate.
  3. Select the function Edit -> Delete line.

    The requirement is then deleted.
