SET PF-STATUS - Screen
Short Reference • SET PF-STATUS - dynpro ABAP Statement
ABAP_BASIC_FORM_1 SET PF-STATUS status [OF PROGRAM prog] [EXCLUDING fcode].
ABAP Addition 1 ... OF PROGRAM prog 2 ... EXCLUDING fcode
What does it do? In screen processing, this statement defines the GUI status defined in status for the subsequent screen layouts. The components of the set status are active in the user interface from the next time a screen layout is sent, and remain active until the end of the program or until the next SET PF-STATUS statement. The name of the current GUI status can be read from the system field sy-pfkey.
status expects a character-like data object that contains either the name of the GUI status of the main program of the current program group, or the program specified in uppercase (or only blanks) in prog. If the status is not available, an empty status is displayed, in which no control elements are active except for the predefined system functions. Of these functions, only the Enter key, to which an empty function code is assigned in this case, triggers the event PAI. If the data object status contains only blanks, the standard list status is set and the additions have no effect.
Latest notes:The GUI status of a screen must be set at the latest during the event PBO. If no GUI status is set for a screen, the empty status described above is used. If the set GUI status contains dynamic function texts, the function texts are read from the assigned global data objects of the program in which the GUI status is defined. If these do not exist, question marks (?) are displayed. For dynamic function texts, an explicitly specified program prog is loaded into the current program group if it does not already exist in the internal session. This enables access to its global data objects. The statement SET PF-STATUS has a variant for the GUI status of lists. There is no guarantee that the statement SET PF-STATUS will work at PBO for the selection screen. This statement should no longer be used for selection screens. If a switch is assigned to an element of the GUI status in the Menu Painter, this controls the activation of this element. • OF PROGRAM SET PF-STATUS - dynpro
