How to append an existing custom structure to a standard table

[mark_fryu]

Hi,

I created a custom structure and I need to add it in append inside a standard table.

but if I click the "Append structure" button it tells me that the structure already exists:

I don't want to create the structure, because it already exists, but I just need to add it to the standard table. How can I do that?

thank you

Menu Edit > Include > Insert, or just type .INCLUDE followed by the name of the structure.

If you want to create an append structure, it must not exist. If you have created it, delete it, and recreate via the menu to create an append structure.

hi @Sandra_Rossi 

I need to insert a custom structure in multiple standard sap tables.

The custom structure is already created, but now I need to add it in multiple standard tables

You have to create one append per standard table and in each append include the custom structure.

go to--> the standard table definition and use the "Include" or "Append" option, selecting your custom structure from the list. If it shows as existing, ensure you’re referencing the correct structure name in the table’s definition.Please check the attachement

hi @umasaral 

I don't see "standard table definition" in the drop down menu:
