Hi,

Use Transaction Code SM30 - VWTYGB01 (Table) to include the fields under substitution.

Check the field that is required to substituted is not excluded in above table.

It's existing substitution or new one? Sometime what happen if you are trying to write on existing substitution and want to add some field in prerequisite you need to add relevant character to able to add some more condition: For example: If my existing prerequisite is as below:

State/Prov = 'CT' OR State/Prov = 'DC' OR

State/Prov = 'DE' OR State/Prov = 'MA'

If now i want to add some field from the BSEG table so i need to first put some function data first, for example OR, AND etc to add that field. otherwise we will get the error :

You cannot select the element here

Correct Substitution :

State/Prov = 'CT' OR State/Prov = 'DC' OR

State/Prov = 'DE' OR State/Prov = 'MA' OR

after adding OR select relevant field from the tables

So please make sure you are writing substitution in right way.

Please remember OBBH is to activate substitution and GGB1 is the place to write the substitution.
