Finding user-exits

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

1.How to find the screen Exits and Menu Exits for any Transaction code?

I know how to find thru SMOD by giving package name and thru MODSAP table.I also know a Z-program is there to find.But i want to find thru SAP program.Like Call Customer function is there any way for finding menu Exits and Screen Exits?

2. Is access key required to implement Menu and Screen exits in ECC6.0 version?

3. I will be great full if any body let me know the step by step procedure for implementing screen exit and Menu Exit with an Example in ECC 6.0 version.

Regards

Ravi.

1. Finding user exit/BADI

SMOD, is where you can find the system modifications provided by SAP. CMOD is where you will implement them. If you are looking for all the enhancements provided, then go to CMOD, follow the menu, 'Utilities-->SAP Enhancements'. This will take you to a screen where if you just execute it, you will get all the enhancements provided by SAP.

It is always difficult to find a user exit if all you have is a program name or a transaction code, unless you do a program like Rich suggested. But even there, you will not be able to find user exits that are implemented as sub-routines(also called forms not sapscript forms). Most of the user exits are documented under the corresponding task under IMG structure. So use transaction code SPRO, go to the IMG structure, choose the application area that your program or transaction might be and then you should find a task that talks about enhancements. If you execute that task most often it will take you to CMOD and sometimes to SE38. But all you want to know is there in the documentation attached to the task. Then you can go to CMOD and see which components are there.

Finding BADIs
Business add-ins are enhancements to the standard version of the system.

Business Add-In is a new SAP enhancement technique based on ABAP Objects.
They can be inserted into the SAP system based on specific user requirements.
Each Business Add-In has:
• at least one Business Add-In definition
• a Business Add-In interface
• a Business Add-In class that implements the interface

In order to enhance a program, a Business Add-In must first be defined
Subsequently two classes are automatically generated:
• An interface with ‘IF_EX_’ inserted between the first and second characters of the BADI name.
• An adapter class with ‘CL_EX_’ inserted between the first and second characters of the BADI name.

The Application developer creates an interface for this Add-In.

There are multiple ways of searching for BADI.

• Finding BADI Using CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE
• Finding BADI Using SQL Trace (TCODE-ST05).
• Finding BADI Using Repository Information System (TCODE- SE84).

1. Go to the Transaction, for which we want to find the BADI, take the example of Transaction VD02. Click on System->Status. Double click on the program name. Once inside the program search for ‘CL_EXITHANDLER=>GET_INSTANCE’.
Make sure the radio button “In main program” is checked. A list of all the programs with call to the BADI’s will be listed.
The export parameter ‘EXIT_NAME’ for the method GET_INSTANCE of class CL_EXITHANDLER will have the user exit assigned to it. The changing parameter ‘INSTANCE’ will have the interface assigned to it. Double click on the method to enter the source code.Definition of Instance would give you the Interface name.

2. Start transaction ST05 (Performance Analysis).
Set flag field "Buffer trace"
Remark: We need to trace also the buffer calls, because BADI database tables are buffered. (Especially view V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT)
Push the button "Activate Trace". Start transaction VA02 in a new GUI session. Go back to the Performance trace session.
Push the button "Deactivate Trace".
Push the button "Display Trace".
The popup screen "Set Restrictions for Displaying Trace" appears.
Now, filter the trace on Objects:
• V_EXT_IMP
• V_EXT_ACT

Push button "Multiple selections" button behind field Objects
Fill: V_EXT_IMP and V_EXT_ACT

All the interface class names of view V_EXT_IMP start with IF_EX_. This is the standard SAP prefix for BADI class interfaces. The BADI name is after the IF_EX_.
So the BADI name of IF_EX_CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA is CUSTOMER_ADD_DATA

3. Go to “Maintain Transaction” (TCODE- SE93).
Enter the Transaction VD02 for which you want to find BADI.
Click on the Display push buttons.
Get the Package Name. (Package VS in this case)

Go to TCode: SE84->Enhancements->Business Add-inns->Definition
Enter the Package Name and Execute.

Here you get a list of all the Enhancement BADI’s for the given package MB.

2. No access key will be asked

In addition to the methods suggested above :

To find enhancement options for any given program try this:

Get the package/ development class of the program or Tcode.

go to SE80 and put in the package name.

Listed in the hierarchy will be a few of the enhancement options. But, you find customer exits here.

To see customer exists, Expand the function group node. Every function group which begins with 'X' will be an customer or user exit option.

Hope it helps.
