If I need to do this, I need to cancel release for the Basic Type to which the IDOC is associated with. When I try to cancel release for the Basic Type, I get the message 'The release of the basis types cannot be reset'. The reason for this message is that The basic type was released in basis release 640 but the current basis release is 702. I have tried Add Version with which I can only add new fields but I'm unable to edit existing fields. Can anyone let me know an alternate way of editing the fields of the existing segment?</P><P></P><P>Regards,</P><P>Felix</P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 05 Dec 2012 08:28:55 GMT https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/cancel-release-for-basic-type/m-p/9158759#M1711074 Former Member 2012-12-05T08:28:55Z Re: Cancel Release for Basic Type https://community.sap.com/t5/application-development-and-automation-discussions/cancel-release-for-basic-type/m-p/9158760#M1711075 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Hi Felix,</P><P></P><P>two proposals to change...</P><P></P><P>1.
