Hi Priyanka,

To add a new field or fields to a standard SAP structure 2 options are there

a) Incude a structure

b) Append a structure

<u><b>

steps for option a) :</b></u> Goto se11 transaction.

Create u r own structure with the fields u need and activate it.

Now take the SAP Standard structure, include ur structure ( for eg: zstruc ) in to the standard structure as<b> .include zstruc</b>.

<u><b>

steps for option b) :</b></u> In se11 , take the standard structure, u can see a button named append structure at the top. Click on it and it will give u a screen were u will be able to create ur structure with the required fields and jst activate.

Hope it helps.

Hi

Wat is the actual reason that is making u change a standard

Structure, if u have to apply the already mentioned options

u need access key as ur going to change standard object and that is not advisable.

If u particularly mention ur requirement, maybe then u will get a solution

Hi Priyanka,

There are two methods of adding fields in standard tables i.e through append structure and include structure , as started in above posts.

But I would like to knw why do you want to add new fields in system table.

Please elaborate your requirement , may be some one could guide you to alternate solution.

Hi,

Type ur field name and then click append ...it will get added

For ur requirement u have to include the structure...

1.create ur structure...

2.goto the sap structure,there after the last field of the structure give the .include command..in the component type give ur structure name..

3.save and activate
