u r not allowed to change data element for sap provided tables...if u want change that u have to copy to z tables then u have to change..or if u want to change ztables .. first check whether it is transported or not..if it transported,, u can't do it.. u should take permission from basis team...they will create transport request for that...

You should have access key to edit the data element.

Incase if you are trying to change the domain of the standard table then it is not possible at all and not recommended to do.

Incase of your Z table you can but do your changes in Development system and transport it to the next level of systems.

Cheers,

Hakim

Hi,

If you want to change SAP standard table you need the access key. First you check whether it is SAP standard table or Table with the name space Z/Y.

Thanks & Regards

hi varun

u can only change the Z/Y data elements (without access key)

Procedure for Fields with Data Elements

1. Double-click on the name of the data element.

The data element maintenance screen appears.

2. Double-click on the name of the domain.

The domain maintenance screen appears.

3. Choose Domain -> Display / Change.

Make the required changes and save your entries.

Note that this change affects all the table fields that refer to the particular domain. Foreign keys could become inconsistent and conversions required. You should therefore consider the effects of this action before changing the domain by choosing in the maintenance screen of the domain and checking if the domain is used in other tables.

Note that

The table is activated again and the table field is adjusted to the domain change.
