Custom Table coversion problem

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have custom table e.g. ZTEST which requires to change the key fields. I tried to follow the conversion table steps. Here I am confused. In Dev environment, I rename ZTEST To QCMZTEST at database level. There is no runtime (dictionary) object. How could I get runtime (dictionary) object for QCMZTEST? Do I need to create inactive version of dictionary object for QCMZTEST? Without dictionary object QCMZTEST, I can't write ABAP program to copy data back to ZTEST table.

Thanks,

Do I understand correctly that you are performing these steps all yourself? This is actually done by transaction SE14, there is no need to create own QCM tables or conversion programs.

Yes, you are right. I am performing all these steps. How could I use SE14 to create QCM table and copy data from QCM to actual table?

Thanks,

This is all well explained in SAP online documentation.

Here is a starting point:
