how to modify standard programs

[Former Member]

HI FRIENDS..........

is there any way to modify standard programs.....

[amit_khare]

Copy it to Z program and make your changes accordingly, we never modify custom programs.

If only enhancement to that program is require then check for the OSS Note for the report or Tcode and also for User exit/ BADI to write the code.

If nothing else helps, & modifying standard code is the only way out, you will ahve to register the Object for change & obtain the access key from SAP. When you enter the Std program in change mode, you will have to pass this key to the pop-up.. always use Modification Assistant, thsi will help track changes during version/patch upgrades.<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/60/d6ba5aceda11d1953a0000e82de14a/content.htm">Modification Assistant</a>

Hi Suresh,

in the past it was necessary to modify standard programs. Today SAP offers lots of possibilities to modify programs without doing what SAP calls MODIFICATION.

Have a look at the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/94/9cdc40132a8531e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm">Enhancement Framework</a>, especially the different <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/70/63da4023a28631e10000000a1550b0/content.htm">Enhancement Technologies</a>

If you do not understand everything, don't worry: Nobody does but it gives you some hints.

Let us know why and where you think about modification. I'm convinced there are many nice solutions on hand.
