User Exits

Former Member — Thu, 03 May 2007 03:59:04 GMT

Hi Gurus,

I search the forums for the difference between the userexit and customer exit. But I dont have clear idea for that. What I know is

1) For userexit the exit is stored in the SAP namespace and for customer exit exit is stored in the customer namespace. Please clarify me if it is right or wrong?

2) for userexit we need a access key and for customer exit I think we dont need access key for implementing the exit. Please clarify me in this?

3) In customer exits like screen exit, menu exit, Function exit and Field exit which exit we need access key to implement?

<b>Points will be awarded</b>

Thanks in advance

Ravi

Hi,

1) USEREXITs doesn't require project activation..ex..sales order user exits..Like USEREXIT_SAVE_DOCUMENT_PREPARE in the include MV45AFZZ.

customer exits require a project and that project needs to be activated...Otherwise the code written in the exit will not be triggered..

2) Yes..Userexit require access key and for customer exit...access key is not required..

Thanks,

Naren
