ACCESS KEY:

The system generates a message asking for access key where you are trying to change or create an object which is not within the customer namespace(object beginning with "Z" or "Y") in this case you would need to register the object at service.sap.com and get an access key, which you then enter into the required dialog, then it will allow you to change the standard object.

How to get Access Key?

ACCESS KEY - First of all its provided by SAP. You can get the key from http://service.sap.com -> SAP SUPPORT PORTAL -> Keys & Requests -> SCCR Keys -> Registration. Here u can register a DEVELOPER or an OBJECT, by this time SAP will give the ACCESS KEYS.

**Note : To access http://service.sap.com u should have S number login or like that.

Only after obtaining that ACCESS KEY, SAP will allow the DEVELOPER to create some objects or change or modify Delivered objects.

Why ACCESS KEY - For creating or accessing any object some one should be responsible. Suppose, any issue arises with an object then can easily track the details who has created or modified.

You should have developer key to create 'Y' or 'Z' objects.It is provided by Basis people.

Access Key is required in order to modify/create standard objects.Can be taken from Service marketplace if you are registered there.

Hi Pritpal, this explains u the diff. between developer key and access key.

developer key is what you need to create objects in the system. You OSS admin should be able to get you one from service.sap.com. Object Access key is something else. This is where you are trying to change or create an object which is not within the customer namespace(object beginning with "Z" or "Y") in this case you would need to register the object at service.sap.com and get an access key, which you then enter into the required dialog, then it will allow you to change the standard object.

cheers,

Hema.

there r 2 kind of keys

1) developer key (which allows u to create ,change Z programs

2) Access Key ,which is required to change SAP standard codes

To be able to change programs, programmers must be assigned a "Developer Key". This is linked to the user's id.

To change a standard SAP object (eg Function Module) you will be asked for an Access Key. You get this key from OSS. It allows SAP to keep a track of which standard objects you modify.

You will need to log onto OSS and register this object. Once you do this, you will be given the Access Key. no other way.
