Hi All,

I have a requirement to add a new field in the structure VBMTV but the problem is I am able to add a new field using Append structure this will add the field at the end I want the new field in the middle of the existing fields which can be possible with only include but the include option in the structure is disabled?How to do this ?Do we need access key to include the structure in the middle of the existing fields?

Thanks&Regards

Mahesh

HI Magesh,

you can only add your fields in the bottom using Append structure. if you want to include in the middle you have to get the access key for include.

Hi Mahesh,

to include in the middle, include structure you require access key,

beter option is append structure, later as per your requirement arrange the order in the program.

using append structure, you can only add the fields at the last. if you want to add in the middle include structure is the option.

but if you want to add new fields to the z-tables or z-structures, include structure is suggestible. whereas if it is an SAP standard table or structure, it is suggestible to use append structure.

according to my knowledge, wherever the field is in the structure, that doesnt make any difference.

Hi Mahesh,

Custom include usually starts with CI_ and this table has no customized include. So you only have these options:

a. use Append structure

b. Use some Z table

c. Get the access key from SAP amd modify the structure. But this should be the last option U should think about.
