Adding new fields in the layout.

[Former Member]

Hi gurus,

I have a requirement in which i need to change the layout of a report v.25 through transaction VOKF. Actually i have added one field VDATU in the table VBMTV and the fields of this table are getting displayed in the output but not all fields. so through the transaction VOKF a variant has been created with some fields and there is also option for additional fields addition. But the field which I have added new through append structure doesnt appear in the possible value fields.

So do anyone have any solution for this or if anyone has ever encountered this type of issue.

Thanks in advance.

Use transaction SE51 to modify the dynpro with your new field

Instead of using additional fields menu option, go to the menu GOTO->FIELD SELECTION->CHOOSE

I did do what u said ..And pressed the create button and it led to me for a Pop-up for filling the field name. But when I filled the name VDATU it says Field VDATU not defined. Actually it is not in the Field List . so the main requirement is to add this field in the Field List..

Do u have any solution?

Thanks in advance.

After adding your field in the table is the table activated.

that could be the reason of field not visible.

Check which layout is default in the output. Then change the layout using tables T180A and T180S.Add  the new custom fields in those tables by creating new records. you can order the output fields also in the same tables.Try it out!!
