Adding new field to BOL object

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a requirement to add a field 'Middlename' in the BP search screen.

I am able to identify that, BOL 'BuilHeaderSearch' is associated with the model node. But, i am not sure from where the structure is sourced. ie, if it is sourced from BUT000, then the fieldname 'namemiddle' should be appearing when i try to 'create' the attribute. So, where should i search for mapping between an BOL object and corresponding structure ?

If there is no mapping defined, then how should i enhance/add a field to an existing BOL object ?

Any useful links/blogs will be helpful.

Thanks,

Gaurav.

Hi Gaurav,

Each BOL object will have its own attribute structure. You can find this in the tcode: GENIL_MODEL_BROWSER.

Look under the Root Object BUIL Header.

For search there will be search objects and you can find the attribute structure for them too.

You can add the field on the UI using the AET , if it is available in the attribute structure else you can add it anyways.

Hope this helps.

Thanks.
