should I include standard sap screen into my program?

Hi all,

I have a custom program, where I need to modify the values of material batch classification values (like in trans. msc2n).

What is the best way to do it?

I tried to copy the screen from standard sap function pool CHRG (screen 2300) to my own, but I failed.

It has few subscreens included (e.g. screen 5000 from pool CTMS), which use lot of data provided in the standard program and I am unable to follow all the logic included there to make it work in my program.

A dynpro screen is just a "window" into the global data and business logic of the main program, so copying the screens alone won't help much. How different will your program be to the standard - can you enhance the standard instead to provide the functionality you want?

I have a custom transaction where I should modify some of the material batch characteristic values for some certain batches. I was trying to build my own UI and logic to perform this, but I can't find any FM's to change the characteristic values (I am using CLAF_CLASSIFICATION_OF_OBJECTS to retrieve the values but have no idea how to change and store them).

That's why I thought of including some standard functionality in my program but as You said, screens alone won't help me much.

Anyway, thanks for reply. Any further suggestions appreciated.

Hi,

long time ago - did you get this fixed?

I have done the same and have the screen and can update the batches and movements but not the F4 help for the characteristics (see thread [;).

Did you manage to do this?

Thanks.
