LSMW - Batch input - missing field

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I have an LSMW with Batch input Recording. There is a field on one particular screen which was not recorded (populated) at the time of LSMW creation. Now I want to populate this field. Is it possible to populate this field without going for a new recording.

In other words - is it possible to add this field in the exisitng LSMW recording now.

Thanks

Hi,

You can add the field in source structure and also would need to modify the recording that has been generated earlier. i.e. you would need to insert the field name and field value(newly added field).

Procedd same as you would have normally do.

Hope this will help.

hi Raju,

You can add a screen field to your LSMW recording. On the main window of the recording editor screen, click on the line for the screen you want to add the field for (therefore highlighting it), then click on the "Add screen field" button. A list of possible fields will be given to you to choose from.

Find out the name of the field you need to add by using the F1 help on the actual transaction screen.

The proceedure to add screen fields to existing recording :

1. Choose the Ist step in LSMW

2. Place the cursor in ur recording name and choose Edit recording.

3. Now Choose the screen in which u need to add the field.

4. Click add Screen Field option from Menubar and choose the field.
