append structure

[Former Member]

we have added some fields to MARC with append structure.

not yet transported to Quality.

after my structure someother structure is there which is already transported to quality. so when i transport mine SAP has to rearrange the fields.

what are the implicaitons of not having my fields at the end?

if now we want to have our fields at the end by choosing someother name for the structure, how to delete?

You will not have any problems, during transport, the system will <b>adjust and activate</b> the table. This is very simular to what happens in the SE14 transaction.

hi,

i dont know what SE14 is.

anyway, is it an advantage having the structure at the end?

if not, then how can i delete the existing from MARC ?

[RichHeilman]

I don't really think that it matters, once the table has been adjusted and activated, there will be no difference. SE14 is the transaction code that you can use to manually activate and adjust database tables and indexes.

Hi you can contact the basis team to synchronize the request that has been already sent to quality to same in the development and then you have to redo the changes this is the general procedure that is followed.

Before doing this you have to take the permission from the TL.

Hi,

if you want to delete the structure then you can delete the Structure from SE11 and add it again, and then Adjust the Database. and using the Database Utility from menu Utilities.

so now if i delete the appended structure, i will just activate the table.

i dont have to go to SE14. will system adjust and activate it when i transport?

[RichHeilman]

You can try to activate from SE11, if you get errors, you will need to go to SE14 and do activate and adjust. The activate and adjust will happen automatically when transported to the target system.

Hi,

No , it is Must once you change any thing to DB , so try to Adjust the DB and Activate to make it Active.

in se11 itself you can ADjust the DB.

from menu Utilities->Data base Utility-> Activate and Adjust the Data Base

this will Do.

then Activate your Table.
