Just a question guys. I am creating entries for my table and I got this message - "CAUTION: THE TABLE IS CROSS-CLIENT". I was able to put entries after that message. I just like to understand what that message means. Thank you.

pls see image: http://i338.photobucket.com/albums/n440/googleb0y/album1/caution.jpg

That is just a warning message which indicates that the table is

client independent.

It means that if you try to update the table then the record is updated in other clients also .suppose ur table in client 100 and 400,then if u update in 100 then 400 is also updated

hi,

its a warning message ...That is because you don't have MANDT (CLIENT) field in the table. Modify the table to add the field MANDT as the field field, mark it as key - regenerate the table maintenance, you will not get the warning.

thanks

The Message Simply means that your table is without the "MANDT" field & thus it is client independent

In SAP it's recommended that you create a client dependent table but it's not mandatory.

The Message u got is just a warning message.

so can further enter more fields in your table.

Thanks

Hi,

When ever we create a table with out the field MANDT it will give that warning.

MANDT is the client through which we enter,and it must be the first field.If you create a table with the first field as MANDT which also has predefined dataelement as MANDT only then the warning

cross-client will not appear.

So try by inserting field MANDT in your table.

Regards,

jaya
