CREATION OF CUSTOM TABLES

hi
I AM TRYING TO CREATE A CUSTOM IN ABAP
I followed the following procedure
SE11
SPCIFIED THE CUSTOM TABLE NAME
CLICKED ON CREATE BUTTON
THEN SPECIFIED SHORT DESCRIPTION
For Delivery Class I specified as C
For DataBrowser and Table variant I specified as Display and Maintenance allowed
Once I click on save before specifying other properties I see the following error displayed
"RFC system error for destination GTADIR_SERVER"
Thanks in advance

Hi,
once again try like this.
Steps to Creating domains, Data Elements, Tables
To give you the steps for creating table:.
There are two approach in creating a table.
1. Bottom-up approach
2. Top-down approach.
Both are valid and you can choose which approach is suitable for you. I always use the bottom-up approach. Here are the steps to create the tables with this approach.
1. SE11 will take you to the DDIC and enter the name of the new table to be created. Let us say Zname. Click create.
2. Enter the short discription of the table and enter the field of the table. If it is primary key and you have to check the box.
3. Enter the data element and double click it, you will be asked to save and will take you to data element discription page. Enter the short discription of the data element and enter the information of domain like the length of field and type of field.
4. If you wanted to use the existing domain then its fine, or else, you have to create one. Enter the domain name in the data element page and double click it. Page will ask to save and jump to domain creation page.
5. In the domain page, you have to save the information which you have already given in the data elements page and check it. Before going to data element page, you have to activate the domain.
6. Go to data element page and save, check and activate.
7. Go to main table page and save, check, and activate.
8. Also, you have to save the technical settings of the table.
The table is now ready for operation. You can use it in your program or you can use it to enter information.
Check table: It is the table which will have all the information about the Foreign keys which are the primary keys in the check table.
It can be created by creating the foreign key from the main table. Click foreign key in the main table and it will take you to a page which will ask for table name and field to which foreign key relation has to be associated. Enter the information and you can create the check table automatically.
SM30 is used for maintenance of the table, that is to realease the errors occured during the creation of the table.
Well, this is the information I have.

Creation of Custom table in MII database.. Recommended?

Hi All,
In MII 12.0.6, I came with a requirement where I need to store some data in a table. As MII 12 runs on netweaver so naturally it has a associated database. Can we use that MII schema (or some new schema in that netweaver database) to create some custom table, to store some data. I am planning to connect that table by creating a IDBC connector and sql query.
Thanks,
Soumen

I would not create a custom table in the same schema, but I see no reason why you couldn't create another schema in the same database server to hold your custom content.

Creation of custom table in R/3

Hi Experts,
We have content extractor which takes excessively longer time to load the data. We are planning to create a custom table and use generic extraction of data. Appreciate any expertise on this issue.
Thanks,
Varun.

Hi Varun,
Basically Content Extractors are supposed to be very efficient. But if you are still planning to go ahead by creating your own custom table and carrying out generic extraction of data you can use the below document to do the same...

To save the sales order number in custom table while creation of the order.

Hi Experts,
Does there exist any exit to save the sales order number in a custom table while the sales order is created in VA01. The requirement is to capture the sales order number in a Z table when a field (payment terms ) is changed during the sales order creation.
Regards,
Sunitha

Hi Sunita,
You can store your data in the User exit MV45AFZZ in the form 'userexit_save_document'.
You can navigate to MV45AFZZ from SE38 wherein an access key needs to be generated for that program, if you know to implement enhancement points then you can create an implicit enhancement point in this form without generating an access Key.

Can I create a custom table of contents and link to other .pdf files based on responses to a form?

Hey Everyone! First post ever, so bear with me:
I'm trying to create a streamlined method to use a form to let myself and others add information and select certain options to put together a custom table of contents. Basically, I would like to have a form with a series of text fill and single/multiple choice options that will automatically populate a table of contents based on the selections and will link to other .pdf files that are associated with the selections. I was hoping this would be possible with a form, but I'm relatively new to the function of the software as a whole and my research came up short. Any suggestions on how to start are more than welcome, and if I wasn't quite clear enough I would be happy to elaborate.
Thanks for your time!

You would need to search for other PDF creation software that can accomplish what you desire.
There are many cheaper PDF creation alternatives other than Adobe's Acrobat Pro software.
Also, try doing a web search under these terms to see if you can find an app/software/solution that may work for you.

Logging the changes of a custom table into CDHDR and CDPOS

Hi all,
What is the strucutre that is to be passed while creation of a ChangeDocument(Object Class) for the parameter
Name of Ref. tab in SCDO tcode.And what other steps are to be done for logging the changes of a custom table.

How do you maintain the first table? Did you create the maintenance module yourself or did you get it generated by SAP? If you have your own maintenace module, all you have to do is get the values from the table at the time when you update it and seve the necessary values in the second table. If you have a generated maintenance module, then you would have to do this in there, problem is you will need to register the onject when you change it.
Let me know if this helps.

Update real time account general data into a custom table

Hi,
I have created a z table for storing account general data for some business requirement. I have created a program and executing batch job to update this z table on periodic basis. Can anyone suggest some other alternative solution to update this z table whenever an account gets created/modified in CRM system? Instead of running a batch job periodically, I need a real time replication of the account data in this custom table.
Thanks and Regards,
Sneha.

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
But, Can you elaborate the solution, Can we use Business Transaction Events(BTEs) for updating Partner data? Will these be triggered for Account Creation/Modification. If so, Can u suggest any BTE which can be used for my requirement?
Thanks and Regards,

Regarding custom currency data element issue in custom Table.....

Hello,
I am currently working on creation of a Z custom table in SAP. There is data coming from
mainframe for amount field in the form -9999.9999.
To store data like this I am creating a custom Z data element with Z domain definition as follows:
Data type; Curr
No of characters: 5
Decimal places: 4
Sign box is checked.
Now when I use this Z data elemnt for a firle in custom table, while activating, it asks for table refernce and table field. What do I give it here ?
Please help.
Regards,
Jainam..

Hi Jainam,
very basic ABAP knowledge: A field of type CURR isn used to store a currency amount. Every currency field must be connected to a currency key of type CUKY.
The same concept applies for quantities and units.
You can spare a lot of trouble if you look at standard tables and programs, copy or use data elements and/or structures from standard.
If you want to re-invent the world, you may need more than seven days.

How to upload data in a custom table in quality server

Hi All,
I want to upload data in custom table in quality server.
I forgot to tranfer TMG into QA. I also don't send any upload program to QA.
Is there any way to upload data directly to table in quality server i.e. by use of debugging.
Regards,
Narendra

Hi Narendra,
As suggested by Jorge you can create data through T-code SM30 (for this you need to have table maintainence generator in development) and get it tranported to Quality and production and maintain the data through it or else to can create a request for data creation through SM30 in development and get it transported to quality and production.
Thanks,

JTable: Custom Table Model (pII)

As was explained in pI, I'm creating a custom table model to overcome a few pitfalls I came across using the DefaultTableModel class, such as aligning cells, and getting certain columns to return only numeric type data. However, I've come upon a few roadblocks myself.
How do I create each of the following methods:
insertRow(int ow, int column)
remove row(int row)
addRow(Object[] rowData)Assuming that I decide to allow the user to add a column to the table, how would I create the methodaddColumn(Object columnName, Object[] columnData)And also, as I'm creating a custom table model, would I need to replicate DefaultTableModel's methods that inform the listeners that a change has been made to the table?
Thanks!

Thanks!
I just got this response. Anyways, I found another solution that was, interestingly, from one of your threads written in 2005.
This is what I did:
// Letting the JTable know what each column stores and should return by
   // overloading the getColumnClass() method
   public Class getColumnClass(int column)
      if(recordsTable.getColumnName(column) == "Ranking")
        return Integer.class;
     /* Why do I keep ketting an IllegalArgumentException here? *
       * It keeps saying it cannot format given object as a Number */
      else if(recordsTable.getColumnName(column) == "Price (�) ")
        return Float.class;
     else
       return getValueAt(0, column).getClass();
   }However, another problem has arisen.
The if method for the int column (Ranking column) works okay, and is even right-aligned. The else if arguments for the Price (�) column however is returning an IllegalArgumentException. This I just cannot figure out.
Here's the code:package Practice;

package Practice;
class MusicDatabase
    private String songTitle, identity, musicCompany;
    private int rank;
    private float priceF;
    // Defining the constructor
    public MusicDatabase(String title, String name, String company,                               int rankingInt, float price)
       songTitle = title;
       identity = name;
       musicCompany = company;
       rank = rankingInt;
       priceF = price;
    } // constructor
   // Other methods
} // class MusicDatabaseSorry, but am not sure if these codes are executable, as where I am (a general library), JVM is not on the machine I am using. (Remember, i don't have ready acess to the Internet, so I could not use my machine, nor the facilities that had the JVM - unavailable to me at the time).
Thanks!

PS I do hope the code pasted was not too much. Kind regards....

Adding new field in customized table ZPM_QMEL_EXT

Hi all,
My requirement is to add a new field in ZPM_QMEL_EXT table numeric field no of months due (ZZ_CO_MON_DUE) .
Its value will be calculated as the # of invoices that were paid vs. what has not been paid and then from there, value of this field will be fetched.It has to be populated during the time of notifcation screen entry (iw51). The logic will be similar to this
SELECT FAEDN FROM DFKKOP INTO TABLE IT_DU_DT
                              WHERE GPART EQ WA_QMEL-KUNUM AND
                                    VKONT EQ WA_QMEL-ZZ_VKONT.
    SORT IT_DU_DT BY FAEDN ASCENDING.
    READ TABLE IT_DU_DT INTO WA_DU_DT INDEX 1.
    MOVE WA_DU_DT-FAEDN TO DUE_DT.
    CALL FUNCTION 'HR_MONTHS_BETWEEN_TWO_DATES'
      EXPORTING
        I_DATUM_BIS = SY-DATUM
        I_DATUM_VON = DUE_DT
      IMPORTING
        E_MONATE    = NO_MT.
    IF NO_MT IN P_DU_MT.
      WA_QMEL-DUE_MONTHS = NO_MT.
Awaiting your kind help .
Thanks

Hi,
There is only one option to include extra field for standard tables that is Append Structure other than we don't have any option.
For Customizing tables we can use Append structure as well as Include Structure.
Rules: Append Structure should be in last in Field column but include structure you can insert in any where it means between the fields.
Delivery class option and data class will take care automatically while upgrading the sap system one version to Another version.(upgrading).
For that you should maintain the those properties when data base table creation.
i hope the above information may helpful to you.
