Purpose:

To move the cursor to the desired field when a Tab is Pressed.

Syntax:

tab("[From-Screen-Field]","[To-Screen-Field]");

Example: Below example, explains the navigation of "Cursor", when a tab is performed, with Liquid UI script tab command defined.

when a tab is performed, while cursor is stationed in "PO date" inputfield, the cursor focus moves to "Deliver.Plant" inputfield and then when the tab is performed again from "Deliver.Plant" inputfield cursor focus is moved to "Payment Card" inputfield.
Then again when the tab is performed, when the cursor focus is on "Card Verif.Code" inputfield, the cursor focus shifts to "All Items Table Item Column First Row".


1. Create a script file "SAPMV45A.E4001.sjs" with the following code and save it in your ws scripts directory as configured in "guixt.sjs" file.

       tab("F[PO date]","F[Deliver.Plant]");
       tab("F[Deliver.Plant]","F[Payment Card]");
       tab("F[Card Verif.Code]","cell[All items,Item,1]");


2. Navigate to the transaction VA01. Input "Order type" as "OR" and hit enter.
3. Set cursor focus on "PO date" field, by clicking inside the inputfield, now press "Tab" on the keyboard, now the cursor moves to the "Deliver.Plant" inputfield, when the Tab is pressed again, the cursor will move from "Deliver.Plant" inputfield to "Payment terms" inputfield.

                               enter ();

   

• Before going further, we need to know the working of goto label in order to Implement onmessage.

   goto-label:
   goto label is used for altering the program flow in Liquid UI.

   Syntax:

                           goto labelname;
                          ---------------------

                           ---------------------
   Note:

   •   onmessage should be used after the onscreen/enter block.

   •   An Action is Needed to Exit out of the onmessage block   

   Example:
   Below is the Example that Illustrates the Usage of onmessage.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      if (_message. substring(0,2)=='E:') {  --------------------------------------------->If Error found then do the following

      set('F[Functional loc.]',''); ----------------------------------------------------------->Setting the value to Empty

      set('F[VIQMEL-QMDAT]',''); ---------------------------------------------------------->Setting the value to Empty

      message(_message); ---------------------------------------------------------------->Displaying the Message

      enter();

      goto SCRIPT_END;-------------------------------------------------------------------->After Enter go to End of the Function

   }

 else
   {   
     enter();--------------------------------------------------------------------------------->If it is not an Error then continue to the Script
