After adding field to Datasource not getting data for it

Hi All,
I have extended the datasource 2lis_11_VASCL and added three keyfig to it.
I have changed it accordingly in EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001 (trans. data).
In RSA3 when i go to debug mode it is fetching correct data, But the problem is that when i check the data in the rsa3 using displaylist it is not showing newly added fields in the structure.
I have replicated the datasource to BW here i can see newly added fields.when i ran the delta update still it is not extracting anything for newly added fields.
I think my problem is in R/3 only coz it is not showing fields itself in rsa3 or rsa7.
Pls. help me out.
Regards,
Viren.

Hi,
In RSA3 after you display the list choose a record and selected Choose detail(CtrlshiftF3) and check.
Or from the menu select > settings > display variant > current and see if it is in the hidden list.

Adding Fields to DataSource

I am trying to add REFBN and REFBT (TCRSA6)and it is not allowing me saying "Not Permitted" when I choose "Change dataSource". Any help appreciated.

Hi Tou Sy,
Follow these steps..
1. Goto RSA6
2. Select your datasource and click on enhance structure on the top tool bar.
3. then give any name to your enhance structure.
4. On the next screen in the components column enter the fieldname starting with ZZ (EX: ZZREGIO ....REGIO from LFA1)
5. In the componenttype column enter the DATAELEMENT type of the respective field from the table you intend to get the field from.
6. Enter Short description for your enhance structure.
7. Press ENTER...now you can see rest of the colums are filled.
8. Save it and activate it.
Then go back to RSA6...
1.select your datasource
2.click on CHANGE icon
3.IF you see a check mark in HIDEFIELD and FIELDONLY columns for the just added fields UNCHECK them and SAVE it.
4.GOTO RSA3 check if the data is coming.

Adding fields to custom idoc type

Hi,
i have a query regarding adding fields to custom idoc type.
To add fields to custom idoc type we are trying to cancel the release from we30, but we are facing error that 'The release of basis type cannot be reset'
When we are trying to cancel release from we31we are facing error 'Error while ressting release of segment z type'.
Kindly suggest the solution to add fields in basic idoc type.
Thanks & regards,
Farheen.

Reason that you are getting these errors is that you cannot cancel
the release of an extension made in previous version . Instead you have to create a new extension.
1.It is not possible to change a segment definition which is released in a
lower release.
2.You must create a new segment definition for the new release e.g. 620 with a new segment
field with the appropriate length.
In transaction WE20, outbound parameters, you can specify
the "segment release in IDoc type" for the communication.
Please read the F1 help of this field for further information.
3.For your own segments you can define a new version of the segment
tcode WE31 -> Add Version
Thanks!

You should also add the field into the screen through program MP .. 0002.
I advise you to add it from the P0002 structure which is the red dotted icon on the top part of screen maintenance screen.

Cutover approach - new fields added to existing DataSources / DSOs / Cubes

My current project has been phased across multiple releases. The phase 1 go-live was a few months ago and there is already a reasonable amount of data in the production environment. We will soon cutover from our QA to production environment. Some of our developments involve the addition of new fields (not key fields) to datasources.
For existing delta-enabled DataSource we are going to adopt the following approach:
1- Source system transports deployed
2- DataSources replicated in BI system
3- Before InfoObject / InfoProvider transports are sent we will delete data
4- The INIT flag will be deleted
5- Full Repair loads will be executed
6- INIT without Data Transfer will be executed
For new delta-enabled DataSources we are going to:
1- Source system transports deployed
2- DataSources replicated in BI system
3- INIT loads executed
4- DELTA loads executed
Does this approach seem correct? Does this avoid the risk of losing any data? Will it lead to delta loads functioning correctly? Will we get data loaded in the new fields for existing records?

One approach that we used for getting around having to delete and re-fill setup tables (which, by the way can be done without downtime - I wrote a blog on that about 1 year or more ago), is to create generic DataSources (some with generic deltas) for the additional data, ensuring that we had the keys for the target InfoProviders in the DataSource and then used those as an additional transformed source to the InfoProviders.
Example:
Was
2LIS_XX_XXX -> 0XX_DSXX
Now
2LIS_XX_XXX \
> 0XX_DSXX (with appended columns)
ZLIS_XX_XXX /

Hi Bala,
Use the following piece of code the selection will be invoked for the field
Select * FROM ROOSFIELD INTO table it_roos
              WHERE OLTPSOURCE EQ '9ademcrt'
              AND FIELD EQ <your field name>
LOOP AT it_roos assigning <lt_roos>
   <lt_roos>-selection = 'X'
   <lt_roos>-selopts = '1'

Date Added field blank in attachment

Hi All,
I am adding an attachment (through coding ) to an UDO.
The attachemmt attaches fine but the Date Added field is blank and non editable.
Moreover I cannot find any APIs to fill this field with the current date.
As a result, my UDO does not get saved.
Please provide pointers to fill the Date Added field either automatically or through coding.
Regards,
Himanshu

Since there are no standard API's to set the date added field., you can use getExtensionField to set the date. The field ID for date Added within AttachmentSubIBeanIfc is "MODIFIED".
You can use this line of code to set the date added:
attachmentBean.getExtensionField("MODIFIED").set(TypeFactory.createSysDatetime(new java.util.Date()));
where attachmentBean is of type AttachmentSubIBeanIfc.

Immanuel

Added Field, but no data displayed

Hello Experts,
I have added CITY field successfully in Relationship Assignment Block by creating a new Attribute using WIZARD.
Component : BP_DATA
View: AccountRelationshipsOV
Context Node: BUILRELATIONSHIP
Attribute: City
It has generated
GET_CITY
SET_CITY
GET_M_CITY
GET_I_CITY methods successfully.
I can see the added field in my WEB UI i.e. CITY.
But the problem is when a new Relationship is created or selected by clicking on 'New' on Relationship Assignment Block, it is displaying only NAME but not CITY.
While creating the Attribute thorugh wizard, in Attribute Definition
I have given
Attrib.name        : CITY                ( can this be city or should be ZCITY)
BOL Entity         : BuilAddress
BOLAttribute      : CITY.
What else have to be done to get the data for this particular field.
your suggestions are really appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.
Mythili S

You can add new field in the view as value node(data dictonary) or context node(BOL).
Value node field - in this case if you want to populate the values in the field, you can write code withing GET_CITY. See some sample GET methods
Context note field - since this will be part of BOL structure you do not need to do anything for populating the field. Standard SAP fetched data as whole BOL structure so it should take care.
Hi Anand,
I think this is Context Node field only,
I have created a adde these two fields by right clicking on ATTRIBUTE.
The coding is done in all the methods.
GET_CITY, SET_CITY...etc.
Where could be the mistake?
Thanks & Regards
Mythili

Adding field in Report Painter

Hello Gurus,
I am working in the Report Painter PR20-001.
My requirement is to add a new column in the output of the report but even when i am able to add a new field and save it on the reports execution i am unable to view the added field in the output.
Kindly tell me the entire procedure to add a new field in the output of the respective report painter output.
Regards,
Swati.

Hi,
Go to Global Parameters Definitaion in report painter, variable will be used only along with the field, just in global paramerters enter your desired field and click in next column, system will show you a pop up select your variable for that field...
now its just done run the report and test it!
If you still not make it refer to standard report of such kind, you will surely get it....

Newly added field not getting displayed in ALV output

Hi,
Fieldcat is buffered - so use
I_BYPASSING_BUFFER = 'X'
Since a while CL_GUI_ALV_GRID is available which does NOT need any fieldcat (is determined internally using RTTI). It is worth playing around whith this class if you have some time. This class is recommended for ALV Output by SAP (but no edit is possible - was never supported officially).
A simple use would be:
data: gt_output type standard table of (adjust!).
*simple ALV output
data go_alv type ref to cl_salv_table.
data go_functions type ref to cl_salv_functions_list.
data go_columns type ref to cl_salv_columns_table.
data go_column type ref to cl_salv_column_table.
*Exceprion handlig
data: go_exception type ref to cx_root,
      gv_errortext   type string.
** fill table gt_output ...
** ALV output
if not gt_output is initial.
    try.
        call method cl_salv_table=>factory
          importing
            r_salv_table = go_alv
          changing
            t_table      = gt_output.
      catch cx_salv_msg into go_exception.
        gv_errortext = go_exception->get_text( ).
        message gv_errortext type 'A'.
    endtry.
* enable all standard ALV functions
    go_functions = go_alv->get_functions( ).
    go_functions->set_all( ).
* hide MANDT
    go_columns = go_alv->get_columns( ).
    go_column ?= go_columns->get_column( columnname = 'MANDT' ).
    go_column->set_technical( ).
    go_alv->display( ).

Added fields not appearing in the DSO transformations.

Hi,
I have added three new info objects into data fields in the DSO then activated and not appearing added fields in the transformations.
Please suggest me,
regards,
Jayapal.

Hi Jayapal,
i dont know whether it would help you...you can give a try on it.
Instead of deleting the Transformation, just delete the mappings if any in the transformation.
Goto DS->Fields Tab-->In the Column Template info Object. Try mapping corresponding IO with the Source IO.
Then it will show a pop up give Copy . Activate the DS.
Goto Info Provider>Select the Transformation> If it is active-->reactivate it by clicking the Pencil Icon with glass and click activate icon.
If its not active, then reactivate it again by clicking the Pencil Icon with glass.
Let me know if it Works... Cheers
Regards,
Syed

UDM_SUPERVISOR: Adding fields and data at customer item level

Hi
I am having the same issue with newbie82_c; I need to populate the added fields in transaction UDM_SUPERVISOR.
I know that the previous thread was tagged as answered already but the solution to the issue was not indicated in the thread.
Here are the scenarios:
- i've added fields in the item level invoice worklist of the customers by enhancing structure FDM_COLL_INVOICE_ALV (appending fields to FDM_COLL_INVOICE)
- thru the implementation of the BADI FDM_COLL_SEND_ITEMS, i was able to retrieve the data specified by the user (Reference Keys in FB05)
- i've populated CT_EXT_ITEMS with the retrieved data
Now I need these data to be displayed in the added fields in UDM_SUPERVISOR.
What ABAP object/s is/are responsible for populating the process receivable details?
Thank you in advance for the assistance.

Hi K.R.Reddy,
Can you kindly provide me with a working solution for this? I'm currently facing a similar issue for a similar BAPI (in my case it's BAPI_CUSTOMERRETURN_CHANGE) and can't seem to update the custom fields in VBAK. I have put in necessary values in the EXTENSIONIN table as well as updated the UPDATEFLAG indicator to 'U' and although it says that the order is saved, it seems to overwrite the custom field with its original value.
The custom field seems to get updated correctly when I use BAPI_CUSTOMERRETURN_CREATE but when I make changes using BAPI_CUSTOMERRETURN_CHANGE, it gets overwritten with the original value.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Adeline.
