MDG C custom fields issue

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I created some z fields in KNVV table. I followed a document on how to add custom fields in standard entity in customer master. I added the fields in Data model, generated structure, checked the fields in USMD_DATA_MODEL, did editting in SMT and then configured the fields in UI. When I activate change request in MDG , the fields are not transferring in active area nor in ECC.

I m not sure what I have missed. Is there any suggestion?.

Muhammad,

I am assuming that Data is going to Staging Area and you are able to see the data in the Change Request when the CR is in workflow and as soon as you activate it, data vanishes ? Is that correct.

To find out if there is an issue in SMT Mapping, try putting the data in the KNVV table directly for a Customer for your custom attributes and then open this customer in MDG. If you are able to view the data in MDG UI, then there must be some issue with CVI mapping but if you are not able to see the saved data in custom attributes then in that case there is an issue in SMT mapping.

Which version of MDG you are using. Is it happening to all of the Custom attributes you have created for Customers or specific to KNVV section?.

If you have done everything correct and still having issues, then try looking at NOTE 2496834. We have updated our system from MDG v9.0 to v9.1 and immediately after that all our custom attributes stopped working. We applied the mentioned note and then it worked. Reason being all the SMT extensions never inserted in the generated code so we have to do the workaround mentioned in the NOTE.

Cheers,
