Classificaion UIBB for custom object

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

I am working on a custom object & I am a little lost on how to deal with classification, Can anyone share some insights into how I can include a classification UIBB (WD Component WDC_MDG_BS_CLF_GEN) into the generic OVP ?
I would really appreciate any help.

Thank you!

If you're using the same OVP as that of Material, the standard UIBB for Classification can be used and ABAP logic needs to be written during data save in BADIs to associate the equipment number with the class/char.

In this case, the custom object is equipment & not linked to material UI, We've create an custom OVP page which is copied from Generic OVP temple USMD_GEN_OVP_TEMPLATE , we've included the classification UIBB (WDC_MDG_BS_CLF_GEN) in the generic OVP page, As of now the Classification UI not even visible in the OVP page, is Is there something I have do in the connector classes ?
Any input /direction would be really appreciated!

Please state the use case, if you are using 'Lean Classification' which is UIBB for class and characteristic as separate ones, you would have to include both in your OVP and write logic to assign that with your custom object. In MDG-M, the Classification is assigned to Material by standard. Your use-case would determine what you are planning.

Dear Partha, Thanks for taking time to answer, The custom object we are building is for equipment master, I don't have a preference (Lean Classification vs Classification) as long as I am able to handle the classification in the change request.
