Go to SE11, give the table name and click on change. Then Go to utilities--> Table

maintenance generator.

In the table maintenance generator screen, we should give Authorization Group,

Function Group name (Function Group name can be same as table name),

Maintenance type can be one step or two step, usually we will create with one

step. we should give maintenance screen number. After clicking on create button,

a table maintenance generator will be created.

To check it go to SM30 . In SM30, we find display, Maintain options.

We can view the table contents by choosing Display and we can create table

entries by choosing Maintain.

I hope it helps.

Thanks,

Vibha

Hi,

If the custom table is created without dataelement i.e predefined type then in Table maintainace generator can't see headings for fields f the table.

solution : you need to maintain the custom table with dataelements then you will get the description of the fields in Table maintainace generator

Check the Field label for the data element, if it is not there , maintain the filed label and recreate the table maintenance.
