Hi,

Why you need a BADI to add new fields to your Custom Transaction Table control?

You can change them manually by changing the code? what's the problem?

There will be no BADI's for custom based Transactions.

If you want you can design a BADI for your own code, but it is simple to change the code instead of designing a BADI.

SAP provided BADI's for STD ENJOY transactions like PO and GR etc

reward if useful

Hi Mansi,

It's is not possible to add new fields in the table control simply because the underlying structure of the internal table on which the table control is based cannot be changed at runtime.

It's not possible to change table control ..adding/deleting fields at runtime thru any medium.

You can directly try to edit the SAP standard program .

Hope this helps

Okie let me try and explain.

If you open a transaction screen you'll find that if you go to

SYSTEM-> STATUS

u'll find the main program name , screen number and in case there is a subcreen then the subscreen program name and the number.

In case it does not have that then u'r table control is in main program else if it's also having subcreen you need to check the subscreen also.

Now, that you have found the table contol you can edit it in se80 or se51 .

This is standard SAP so you'll also need to get an access key from SAP to edit it.

Once you are able to edit it's like any Z program

so u can edit it.

Also, you'll have to put the logic to fill the added fields in the change table control so for that you'll have to analyze how the value is getting filled.

and in case it has a change and save option u need to handle it there also so that the value entered /changed in the custom added field get populated in the table you want.

Also, If there is a BDC using that then you need to change that also

hope this helps
