Prepares generic maintenance on an owned test table.

01 · OVERVIEW

Overview

Exercise objective: verify prerequisites before opening simple maintenance. Prepare ZZ1 in SX2, SX3 fields and validation, indexes and test permissions; then check search, view, insert, edit and delete using fictional data. AxCadastro supplies these dictionary-driven operations. Scheron Martins’s source shows a short SA1 call; this adaptation avoids the standard table and uses prepared ZZ1. Alias presence alone proves neither full configuration nor suitability for complex business rules. (TOTVS, n.d., ref. 1; MARTINS, 2023, ref. 2)

03 · PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Commented example

#Include "Protheus.ch"
User Function Ed371()
    Private cCadastro := "Editorial laboratory"
    Private aRotina := {}
    // Owned ZZ1, dictionary and permissions already validated.
    If Select("ZZ1") > 0
        AxCadastro("ZZ1", cCadastro)
    EndIf
Return Nil

Expected result

With prepared ZZ1, requests an interactive screen; also check cancellation and validation rejection without claiming operations were tested. Under review: editorial example neither compiled nor run in Protheus. Check includes, release, RDD and context before testing.

BEST PRACTICES

Do not use SA1/SA2 for a generic lab. Define accepted/rejected cases and record each action’s actual outcome.
