ABAP_MSG - Maintenance Messages are created and changed using the message maintenance tool in ADT BEGIN_SECTION VERSION 5 OUT or using transaction SE91 END_SECTION VERSION 5 OUT . The message short texts are stored as language-specific texts in the database table T100 and are connected to translation tools. The following table shows the structure of the database table T100. ComponentMeaning SPRSLSingle-character language key. ARBGBMaximum 20-character message class. The message class assigns messages to a specific area, such as an application area or a package. MSGNRMaximum three-digit message number. The range between 900 and 999 is reserved for customers. TEXTShort text with a maximum of 73 characters. An explanatory long text must be created when the short text is created if the message itself is not self-explanatory. The message class and the message number are the language independent message key. The long texts assigned to a message are managed as SAPscript documents in the document class NA. Placeholders can be used in both short and long texts, which can be replaced by the content of data objects using the statement MESSAGE and the addition WITH. The placeholders in a short text can be defined in the form <(> i<)> or <(> <)> and the placeholders in a long text can have the form <(> Vi <)>, where i is a digit between 1 and 4. If the actual character <(> <)> is to be used literally, <(> <)> must be entered in the short text and <(> <)> in the long text.
Latest notes:
For reasons of downward compatibility, the character <(>$<)> is handled in the same way as <(> <)> in short texts. The same is true for <(>$i<)>. <(>$<)> should not be used as a placeholder. However, <(>$$<)> must be specified if <(>$<)> is to be used literally.
It is recommended that only one of the two forms <(> i<)> or <(> <)> is used as a placeholder in a short text. If a short text is to be translated into other languages, only the numbered placeholder <(> i<)> can be used, since the structure of the sentence may change. ABAP_HINT_END
Example ABAP Coding
The program DEMO_MESSAGE_TEXTS uses the class CL_DEMO_MESSAGE_TEXTS to read the short text and long text of a message. ABAP_EXAMPLE_END
