Hi All,

Can we use standard field in append structure?(Need to add standard field in condition tables). if yes, will it create any issue during upgrade.

I know for custom fields we need to follow ZZ/YY naming.

Rg,

Gaurav

You can use such fields (only warnings may arise)  but it may cause problem as SAP can use those fields in a furture version, and nobody could foresee that.

Hi,


SAP recommends below.


The customer creates append structures in the customer namespace. The append structure is thus protected against overwriting during an upgrade. The fields in the append structure must also reside in the customer namespace, that is, the field names must begin with ZZ or YY. This prevents name conflicts with fields inserted in the table by SAP.

Hi,

you can use but it's always preferable to use customer name space while appending structure, it will not strife during upgrading the system.

and do remember A condition table defines the combination of fields (the key) that identifies an individual condition record.

thanks!!

Hi,

You can create custom append with standard fields but the fields should not exist in that table. In future problem may come like if any new fields are added by SAP the same field name then it will be conflict so please use custom namespace in field name as well.
