Hi

To update the standard table always try to use BAPI function module.

Check bapi function modules giving * or try bapi_salesorder_*.

Or you have to go for bdc.

BAPI is easy and recommendable.

Thanks

hi Portfolio,

you have to use transaction VA02 to change data in VBAK, or look for a function module, or BAPI. Never change data directly in table!

Yes you can use it .

Customized in the sense?did you add any z fields or already there?

incase if you added any z fields,then you will find extension parameter in bapi function module and you can use it.

Thanks

Hi,

Its better go for BDC to update the customized fields....no need to search for a bapi...record the screens whre u have added ur custom fields and populate the same with the data..It will automatically update the VBAK table.
