I am a little confused now about Mandatory field in SAP definition.
is it Standard that for mandatory fields SAP only shows the asterisk (*) beside the field name, but SAP would not prevent saving the document and not even giving error or warning while saving?
I didn't pay attention to the behavior of mandatory fields in the past until this project. This behavior seems very odd to me. If I configure a field to be mandatory, I expect SAP prevents saving the transaction and give error message in hte message area. It just isn't happening in my current system, it simply saves the document without giving any message, but when I change the document to Edit mode, SAP then realize that the mandatory field is empty and show the error message then. But I need the error message to be displayed when saving, not when switching to Edit mode.
Is there any system config missing for this/
Anyone has any idea?
Thanks
