Transporting append structure removal

Hi experts guys, in this occasion i have a curious issue. This is about ABAP Data dictionary.

The issue is about when you have added an append structure to an standard table (e.g.: MARA) and then you have to delete this insertion.

What we do in this case, is go through SE11 transaction and delete the MARA append structure wich we created previously.

As a result of this we have a workbench transportation order typed as development/correction in wich we have one entry as:

TablaR3TRTABLZCMARA"Icon of deletion"

When we transported this order to productive system, we found out that there was an inconsistence. If you want to see the entries of the MARA table going through SE16 transaction you got a DUMP in /1BCDWB/DBMARA program.

And the other problem was that the function group MALH was inconsistent and we had to regenerate it with GENERATE program through SE38.

One time we done that, we regenerated the selection screen of MARA in SE16 transaction and all will got working fine.

THE QUESTION IS: IS THERE A WAY TO DO IT AUTOMATICALLY ONLY WITH THE ORDER TRANSPORTATION?, WITHOUT RUNNING THE GENERATE REPORT AND TO REGENERATE THE SELECTION SCREEN?

Thanks a lot!

Hi Nahuel,

I think it is not possible automatically.

Hi,

You can use CMOD/SMOD to create enhancement spots.

In the enhancement spots you can include your various enhancement points i.e you can bundle all your related enhancements in a single enhancement spot which can be activated or deactivated all together automatically.

Thank You.

Hi Ashish, I appreciate your response and I understand your point, but I'm talking about the standard program for SE16 transaction. And the GENERATE program is doing the regeneration, but what I'm talking about is to put objects into the order and the changes will be affected into the destination system. In order to avoid doing the same into the destination system. Do you think there is a way?

Regards,

Nahuel.
