Hi,
Append strucutre is not a modification to the DDIC strcutre itnstead it is just an addition to the DDIC strcutre.
Append structure is intended for Customer Enhacnements of the existing strcutrues
where as Include strcutres are intended to reuse already defined strucutres in another strucutre.
When as Inlcude structure is a modification to the strucutre and triggers table conversion if it is a table.
You need to edit the strucutre in SE11 and add a column .INLCUDE.
For Appened you need to use menu option Goto->Append Structure(This is possible only when the enhancement category of the strucutre is "Can be Enhanced".
Regards,
Sesh

hi,
with append we can add the strucure to the database table but this we can't reuse,
with include we can add the structure to the database table but this we can reuse,that means we can add the same include structure to N number of database tables.

HI.
append structure:
A special grouping for extending standard SAP tables.
An append structure is a structure assigned to just one table. When a table is activated, all append structures for the table are found and appended to the table. Append structures are used to add customer fields to SAP tables.
Include structre:
In addition to listing the individual fields, you can also include the fields of another structure in tables and structures. Individual fields and includes can be mixed as required.
Reward all helpfull answers.
Regards.
