Reg table VBKD

[Former Member]

Hi,

I want to know on what basis entries are made in the table VBKD.

Even if a sales order has multiple line items, it is not having the data for those sale order and line items.

This is not the case with all the sale orders, but only some sale orders.

Why is it so.??

Regards.

Hi,

When you define a table lookup for the table VBKD (Sales document: Business data), data does not have to be present for every item in the sales document. If the item data is no different than the header data, the system does not store it in the item as well. In this case, you can find the valid values in the header data, which is stored in table VBKD under the item number "000000

As per SAP documentation,

Table Lookup in Table VBKD 

When you define a table lookup for the table VBKD (Sales 
document: Business data), data does not have to be present 
for every item in the sales document. If the item data is no 
different than the header data, the system does not store it in 
the item as well. In this case, you can find the valid values in 
the header data, which is stored in table VBKD under the item 
number "000000".

Thus, if you want to read characteristic values from VBKD, you 
always need to define two table lookups.

1. First look up against VBKD table using the corresponding 
    sales document number and item number. 

2. If such an entry does not exist, look up using the 
    corresponding sales document number and item number 
    as '000000'.

This rule causes the system to first try to read the item data. If 
this information is not stored explicitly in VBKD table step 2 is 
carried out, which reads the header data.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,
