Adding Custom fields to PO Additional TAB in Header

ganu_k — Thu, 06 Oct 2011 13:56:55 GMT

Hello Experts.

We have a requirement to add 2 additional fields in the PO header - ADDITIONAL TAB. I have included the fields in CL_EKKO include and activated it. Can you please let me know the exit or BADI or sample to have this in Additonal TAB.

I understand that we can create a custom TAB in header and bring in those fields. But i would like to bring these custom fields in ADDITIONAL TAB of PO header only....not creating any new customer tab.

Please share your thoughts.

You need to use the enhancement MM06E005

Thanks Max,

I checked and there are lot of exits available EXIT_SAPMM06E_006.....EXIT_SAPMM06E_018 and many screen exit as well... do we have to use all these or is there anything particular that i have to use for Header Additional TAB.

Please advice. thx

You need to use the screen 101 for header data

and then you have 2 use 2 exit in order to import the data from standard program to the exit and export the data from exit to standard program, they should be: EXIT_SAPMM06E_006 and EXIT_SAPMM06E_007

Hi Max,

Using SAPLXM06 0101 is adding new Custom TAB in PO Header. As i mentioned i dont want new custom tab in Header. All I want is to add the new custom fields in the existing Additional DATA TAB of the PO header.

There is already existing TAB called Additional DATA, i need my custom fields to be available in that TAB, rather than creating a new tab for those fields.

Please let me know how to add it to existing Additional data tab in PO header. thx

You can't do it by enhancement or user-exit, but only to change the standard dynpro and so the program too,

In your case you should change the dynpro SAPLMEGUI 1229, but I think it should be better to use the screen-exit

Why do you need to change it?

Hi Max,

I totally understand your point in not advisable to change standard dynpro... but the requirement is to see whether we can leverage the existing Additional Data tab...rather than bringing in new tab and maintaining it...

anyway will check more on this. thx

The problem is probably you need to change many part of the code of SAPLMEGUI.

Every subscreen of SAPLMEGUI is managed by an own class defined as super class, so I don't know if it's a good idea or solution
