Make custom Class inactive

[Former Member]

When I try to deactivate/inactivate a custom class I get

"Message no. OO175

There is no inactive version of ZCL_PD_PO_PROCESSING_BBP" (Superclass CL_SF_PROCESSING_PPF).

How can I deactivate without having to actually delete the custom class?

Hi Matt,

See if your class is present in table <b>DWINACTIV</b>

It's not, but possibly becuase I've had to delete it (in an extreme rush). This table is empty in non Development systems so I can't check there.

All I can say is that the only OO objects listed in DWINACTIV now are methods from 1 other custom class. We have several others custom classes (not listed) and this one <u>can't be Deactivated either (same message) even though it's listed in DWINACTIV</u>.

Cheers,

Matt.

Hello Matt

If I am correct than the only phase where we have <i>exclusively </i>an inactive repository object is prior to the first activation of a newly created object. As soon as you activate a repository object you will always have either an <i>active </i>version or an <i>active </i><b>and </b>an <i>inactive </i>version. Thus, it is not possible to inactivate a repository object.

However, if you need to get rid of the class yet do not want to loose its coding then I would simply copy the class (e.g. to ZCL_PD_PO_PROCESSING_BBP_) and delete the original one.
