change default values for fields

Former Member — Thu, 17 Aug 2006 22:24:23 GMT

Hi All:

The following is a part of my problem..

I am trying to create a new contract using tcode RECN. I give the company code and click on the create object button(f7). When the pop up is displayed, I select the type of contract. When the Create Contract screen is displayed, I would like the "Account Determination Value" field on the "Posting Data" tab be filled with the value say "ABCD". Also, I would like to be made display only. I tried a variety of method using BADIs and BAPIs. If anyone can help me, it will be greatly apprecaited. Thanks.

BAPI wouldn't help in this case, but a BADI or a traditional user exit might. Look for user exit for this tcode.

REgards,

I tried using BADI, but the methods in the badi do not serve my purpose. I am looking at customer exits now..but seems like there are now.. will keep looking...

search for customer exit in the main program of the corresponding transaction.

Field exits might help in your case, they are obsolete but they are still available.

Use program RSMODPRF to activate field exits for screen fields. Refer to the documentation of the program, it's very detailed.
