If u have acess key to change the data element then during the activation time the automatic up dation takes place but one thing is essential that it canot broken earlier things.suppose if that data element is used in key field if u change the domain automatic that leads to loss of data .

Hi Karna,

You cannot change the SAP standard data elements or domains. Instead create new Z elements

Hi Karna,

You may able to change the data but you cannot able to change the Domain or datatype of the already existing Standard table, for that as said earlier by other, you have to create a Z-table for that.

Thanks and regards

Hi......

Data Element and Domain are Independent Objects in SAP so if u want to change the domain then u need to provide the access key for domain if u want to change the data element then provide the access key for that Data element ....

Hi Karna....

if u give the correct access key it will definitely open in the change mode

if u give wrong access key it will prompt u to try again.....

Just check it once.......

Hi,

May be the structure is set to 'cannot be enhanced'. Open the structure -> Click 'Extras' -> Click 'Enhancement Category....'.
