Hai,

Debug SE16 to allow record changes

If you are not authorised to change table entries or the table has been create without table maintenance

allowed (all SAP tables), you can still change entries via data browser (SE16) by means of debugging. The

process is as follows:

1. Display record entries for desired table via SE16 or SE11.

2. Select record which requires updating by highlighting it and pressing the display icon (glasses, F7).

3. Type /h in command box and press enter.

4. Now press enter again and you should enter debugging mode

5. Change the value of code from ‘SHOW’ to ‘EDIT’, remember to press the ‘change field contents’

icon (pencil) in-order to store new value.

6. Press F8 (execute) to leave debug.

7. You should now have change access to the selected record.

8. Hit ‘SAVE’ to save any changes.

9. Remember there is a reason why you can’t do this without debugging it, one reason being that it could

introduce inconsistencies in the table data.

Is it possible actually i tried this but i unable to get result

i found out it in

This is possible.

You need to have authorisation for debugging.

You need to have authorisation for replace in the debugging mode

You cant simply put inconsistent data where a foreign key check exists.

Please explain the step wherein you are stuck up so that i can guide you further.

hi Surya,

Ya that is correct ... by the above explained fashion you must be able to change or insert new records on to your table ... if you are unable to do that may be you many not be having authorizations .... the other way to change the same is ... develop a small report and use modifiy statement to change the existing record this is how you can modify programatically... try out this way it works in your case ..
