Hi,
I given table maintenace for 'Z' table.
When i went to SM30 transcation, the fields which are taken as Built-in type instead of Data elements are not having caption( Field names ) . It is showing '+' in the place of Fieldname .
What may be the reason. In table i given short description of the field . Even though it is not displaying.
Please suggest me.
Thanks in advance
Pavan.

Hi Pavan,
If you used the built-in types, then that is how it appears in SM30. It will <b>not</b> take the field short descriptions you entered in the table.
Only way to get around it is to go to the screen of the table maintenance and change the field lables there. Caution though, is that whenever you change the table maintenance, you need to do this screen change again.
Let me know if you need more info on how to do it.

Far better solution is to create data elements instead of using built-in types. You can still use a built-in type for the domain, but by creating a data element, you can specify the headings.
