I have a requirement to add a new field which has values maintained as 0 and 1 to an existing planning cube.The user wants this new field in the existing planning layout where in he can enter the values for this field as 0 or 1.I have created a new field and maintained values for this field as 0 and 1.I have added this field to the existing planning area and have created variable with fixed value with range 0 to1.I have added the same in selections in existing planning level and package as well along with other existing selection conditions.
In additional functions of adhoc package they have made setting as set to all possible char combination.
In this planning area all the selections are locked in planning level and package.
Now when i execute the planning layout to enter data,my new field is grayed out,it does not allow me to enter the values.need help with this as to how can i make this field input enabled.This is an independent characteristic.

EEWB - In BP, adding a new field regenerates append structure

Hello,
After adding or deleting a field using EEWB, I have the following issues -
1. The new append structure that was created for BUT000 gets regenerated
2. Field labels get overwritten by field names
3. The order in which the fields were seen on the screen gets altered
Is this a known behavior of EEWB? How to alleviate this?
Thanks!

Thanks for your input Satish!
I searched using the application component suggested and the keyword and it was not very useful.
Some more details -
I created some new fields using EEWB. When you go to transaction BP, the standard tabs are displayed - ex - address, bank data, notes, etc. But now there is a new tab - Customer Data that has my custom fields on it.
In the backend, SAP has created an extend structure for table BUT000 that has these fields in it.
When I go to this extend structure, my fields are there with a ZZ prefix - Ex: ZZFIELD1, ZZFIELD2, etc. If you go to the details of these fields in data dict - transaction SE11, the Field labels - Short, Medium, Long and Heading are the same as the field names. Ex: in the first case, the four field labels will be - ZZFIELD1. I then changed the field labels to something meaningful - Ex: Renter name and rental date. After generating the structure, these labels are then displayed on the Customer data tab. So far so good.
However if I add a new field - ZZFIELD3, then all the label names that I had given (Ex: Renter name and rental date) get erased and replaced by the fieldnames again.
Also the order in which the fields were diplayed gets altered. Ex: earlier the Customer data screen was showing - ZZFIELD1, ZZFIELD2. Now it shows - ZZFIELD3, ZZFIELD2, ZZFIELD1.
I hope I have explained this issue.

Adding a new field in extract structure

Want to include New field in the Extract Structure in the Standard Extractor.
Please let me know what are the steps are needed to bring the data for that field in the cube level.
Thanks
Taj

Hi ,
if the data soource is belongs to LO extraction
Option 1- Enhance in LBWE
1. check in LBWE- Maintenance -> check if your required field is available in pool (right hand side).
2. If it is available then send it to left hand side.
3. Save and you will find the new field as part of your extract structure.
4. In LBWE go to datasource maintenance and uncheck the Hide check box for newly added fields and Save the data source.
5. No need to write user exit code for these fields.
after this replicate the data source
and activate the transfer rules using RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL
Hope you are clear now!!!!!!!!

Adding a new field in existing Genric Func Module extractor

Hi,
I have created a generic data source of type 'Transaction' with Function module and it was working fine and loading data into ODS succesffuly . Recently I needed to add one field.
I have enhanced the function module and the extract structure accordingly. However I am not sure what next to do to have that new field visible in the data source.
I went to transaction SBIW --> Maintain Generic data source in change mode. However I am not able to see the newly added field in there.
Need help.
Thanks

Hi,
Just check the ROOSFIELD table in se11 for your datasource. Possibly the newly added field is hidden. You can execute this code and the field would appear in RSO2.
tables ROOSFIELD.
update ROOSFIELD set SELECTION = 'X' where
Datasource = ' <Data source>'
and field = '<your field>'.
This would make the field appear in RSO2/RSA6.

Adding a new field to Existing data Datasource

Hello,
If I want to add extra field to the existence Data Source in SAP R/3 how will you do? and how will you extract the data in SAP BW .could you please explain the steps. I would appreciate.
Thanks in Advance.
Sri

1)Go to RSA6 and find the data source you need to enhance.--> Display
2)Double click on the Extract structure.
3)Now click on the append structure button to add the required field on to the existing structure.
4) add your required fields with ZZ appended to your field.
5) Save & Activate the append structure. Then go back and make sure you activate the extract structure also.
6) Now again go back to RSA6 and select your Data Source. But this time go to change Data Source to remove the hide option to the enhanced fields. By default theyll be in hide mode. If you dont remove the hide field then this field will not be seen in BW side.
7) Now go to SE38 to write the logic to populate the data into the enhanced field. Program name to write the logic is ZXRSAU01.
8) Check + Save + Activate.
9) Check in RSA3 if data is populated as per your requirement.
10) Replicate your Data Source.
11) Now go to Data Source/ Trans. Structure screen. Now you can see the enhanced field on the right hand side.

Change Pointers - adding a new field to existing Change Document

Hi,
We have a requirement to capture the changes made to the Material object through the transaction C223. The changes to field MKAL-PRFG_F have to be captured.
There is an exisitng Change Document Object - MATERIAL. This is included in Message Type MATMAS. These are the steps we have done:
1. In SCDO - added the Z structure to the Change Document Object - Material. [Z structure contains the field MKAL-PRFG_F. Change pointer option is checked for this Data element.
2. Created a Z Message Type with reference as MATMAS.
3. In BD52 - we have listed the fields for the new Z Message Type created.
4. The Change Pointers - reactivated after the steps are done.
The changes to the field MKAL-PRFG_F through C223 Tcode are not recorded in BDCPV table.
Have we missed any steps here?
Thanks,
Pallavi

HI,
I don't think a new zmessage type is required in this case.. is the structure added to MARA table??The change document programs are there which triggers the iodcs... In SCDO transaction code , click on generation info for MATERIAL.. You will find the includes. The FM MATERIAL_WRITE_DOCUMENT creates entries in CDHDR and CDPOS, if we maintain entries in BD52 , the entries wil be written in BDCP and BDCPS tables.
Try to add your structure in MARA table as append strucre and then you can debug the IDOC from WE19 and use the FM "MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_MATMAS" and then you also need to switch on Update Debugging on, to debug the changes in update FM MATERIAL_WRITE_DOCUMENT.
Please see if the change is reflected or not....
ELSE.
may be you need to create a new entry in SCDO and do all the ALE configurations for change pointers.
Please find the link for change pointers and also you can get lot of information on change pointers in SCN.

Adding new fields to existing cube

Hi all,
We have a cube with data, now we added 2 new fields to the datasource. And want to add two more fields in the Cube to correspond to the new fields. What would be the impact on the data that is already there in the cube? Can I go ahead and add the fields in the cube and start extracting data? What I want to know is what would be the implications in such a scenario?
Any insight or help would be appreciated and fully rewarded.
Thanks,
Mav

Hi,
At least from the experience I had there were no performance issues. The only issue would be in terms of the time taken to transport. The larger the amount of data ,longer the transport time.
You can continue extraction of data for those 2 fields from that point on. No need to empty the data from the cube and reload again. Only thing is that the data in the past for these 2 fields may not be mapped to the existing data in the cube. If you want to do that dump the cube and reload. Otherwise the data will be mapped from the time you start extracting the new fields with the data in the cube.
Cheers,
Kedar

Adding a new field to search of Service Contracts

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where in to add an existing field i.e your ref (sold_to) your_ref_sold field into the search criteria of Service Contrct .
How to add the field to the Search .
I have few questions here.
1 need I use EEW to add the field to Search but its already existing?
2 If not How to append the Structure crmst_query_src_btil and enhace it with field required?
3 how to implement the BADI crm_rf_search_eew?
Thanking You,
Sree.

The search help exit allows you to modify functionality of search help. If you add a new field to the
parameter list that is not contained on the selection method you can manually populate it within the search
help exit.
This would be performed within the u2018STEP DISPu2019 section. Once within this section all search help
data has been retrieved and is stored in table RECORD_TAB (record_tab-string) as one long string value.
Therefore you need to read table SHLP in-order to locate position of value within string.
Example:
To find position of personnel number (PERNR) within elemenory search
help M_PREMN you would use the following code:
Loop at record_tab.
     read table shlp-fielddescr into wa_shlp
                                   with key tabname   = 'M_PREMN'
                                            fieldname = 'PERNR'.
You could then use this information in the following way, for
example, to find a persons organisation unit:
      select orgeh endda
        up to 1 rows
        from pa0001
        into (ld_orgeh,ld_endda)
       where pernr eq record_tab-string+wa_shlp-offset(8)
                                                  u201Cpernr length is 8
       order by endda descending.
      endselect.
      select single orgtx
        from t527x
        into ld_orgtxt
       where orgeh eq ld_orgeh and
             sprsl eq sy-langu and
           ( endda ge sy-datum and
             begda le sy-datum ).
If you have added a new field to the end of the parameters list
the next step is to populate it by adding this data to the end of
the record_tab string:
concatenate record_tab-string ld_orgtxt into record_tab-string.
modify record_tab.
endloop.

Adding a new field to a Z table

We have a Z table on which we have created a datasource. We have created a virtual cube on this datasource and queries are built on this cube. This setup is present on Dev, Quality and Prod environment.
Now we have added a new field to the Z table in Dev. We will be creating a new Infoobject for this new field and will be adding it in the Virtual Infoprovider and also in the queries.
1. Do we need to replicate the datasource so that newly added field is visible to the datasource? If no, is there any way?
2. When I have to transport this to Quality and Prod, do I have to capture all the components and objects (Table,Datasoure,Virtual Cube Queries)? If no, what should I capture in the transport request?

Hi,
First, you have to regenerate the datasource in order to add the field:
1) Log on to source system (where Z table is stored) and go to transaction RSA6.
2) Select the root node and click Expand (icon with '+' sign).
3) Search for your datasource (you can use the binoculars icon).
4) Click on Change.
5) Verify that the field appears on the list. Make sure that "Hide field" and "Field only known on client exit" options are not marked for this field.
6) Click on Save.
7) Select "Datasource" -> "Generate" (CTRL+S) menu option.
8) Use RSA3 transaction in order to verify the new field appears on test extractions.
Then, to replicate the datasource in BI:
1) Log on to SAP BI and go to RSA1 transaction.
2) Go to "Modeling" -> "DataSources" section.
3) Search for your datasource and right click on it. Select "Replicate metadata" from context menu.
4) Add the new InfoObject to the VirtualProvider.
5) Update the transformation which joins the DataSource to the VirtualProvider.
As far as transport requests are concerned, even though it requires more work, it is a good practice to group objects in different transport requests according to their type:
In the source System (R3 for instance):
1) One transport request with the table.
2) One transport request with the datasource and its structure.
In BI:
1) One transport order with the datasource replica.
2) One transport order with the new InfoObject(s).
3) One transport order with the modified VirtualProvider.
4) One transport order with the modified transformations from the datasource towards the VirtualProvider.
5) One transport order with the Queries and their elements.
I hope this helps you.

Maximiliano

SAP Work Manager customization - adding a new field to equipment details screen (Syclo Agentry)

Hi Experts,
I am trying to add a field (NAME1) on the Equipment details screen under work orders in work manager 5.3 application.
I have performed the following steps, but I am getting an error while connecting to the application.
1) Create extension for Equipment class to add a new field.
2) added the new field (Name1) as the property to the standard object Equipment.
3) Added the field on the screen.
4) Added the field (name1) to the complex table ctEquipment.
5) Added the JAR file to Agentry.ini file.
6) Changed the Class mapping for parameter "Equipment" under group "SAPOBJECT" to point it to the custom (Extended) class.
7) Changed the class mapping for complex table parameter "ctEquipment" under group "CT_SAPOBJECT" to point it to the custom class.
8) after publishing the changes and re-starting the server, I get following error.
the log file generated (message.log) also has the same description.
What am I missing here? Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi Emanuel,
Thanks for looking into this issue.
I have performed the following steps as suggested by you, still it doesn't seem to work and gives the same error.
Below are the changes done on the ECC Side.
1) Copied the standard equipment class /SYCLO_CL_PM_EQUIPMENT1_DO to custom class ZSYCLO_CL_PM_EQUIPMENT1_DO. Changes made in the GET Method to get custom equipment related data
2) Modified the standard equipment structure /SYCLO/PM_EQUI_STR by adding one custom field
3) Configured this custom class as the object handler in the equipment mobile data object
4) Configured this custom class as the object handler for the equipment complex table
5) We are still using the standard BAPI Wrapper itself for getting the equipment data and the added field is reflected in the BAPI Wrapper table parameter
Is there something we are missing?

Adding a new field to the Address Data for a business partner

Hi Experts,
I am trying to add a new custom field to the address data (all structures and tables) that is linked to a business partner on SAP CRM via EEWB. Structure is the address structure wthin BUS_EI_EXTERN. Table is BUT020. I have been told that it is not possible as there is no Business Object that allows this. When doing an EEWB, the only business object is BUPA, which when selected, adds the new custom field to BUT000. I would like the field to be added to BUT020 (Address Table). This leads me to believe that there is no standard way of doing this, which ultimatley means that it would need to be done manually. Please help me with this predicament.
