Checking and Changing Data 

Use

The PSA offers you the option of checking and changing data before you update it further from the PSA table in the communication structure and in the current data target.

Procedure

You can check and change data records to

If lower case letters or characters that are not permitted have been used in fields, you can remove this error in the PSA.

For example, if, when matching data, it was discovered that a customer should have been given free delivery for particular products, but the delivery had in fact been billed, then you can change the data record accordingly in the PSA.

You have two options for checking and changing the data:

  1. You can edit the data directly.
    1. Select the request for which you want to check and change the data in the PSA tree of the Administrator Workbench and select Context menu (right mouse button) ® Edit Data.

      2. You get to a dialog box where you can choose which data packet and which data records for this packet you want to edit.

    2. When you have made your selections choose Continue.

      3. You get to request data maintenance.

    3. Select the records you want to edit, select Change, and enter the correct data. Save the edited data records.
  1. Since the data is stored in a transparent database table in the dictionary, you can change the data using ABAP programming with PSA-APIs. Use the programming for a PSA-API with complex data checks or changes to the data that occur regularly.

Result

The corrected data is now available for update. You can find information on update options from the PSA in the section Types of Data Update with PSA.
