Custom Fields added to Project Definitions transaction (CN42N)

In the Project Definitions Overview transaction (CN42N), it was requested that we add custom fields to table PROJ. The fields added were Responsible Analyst Name/Analyst No. and Responsible Accountant Name/Accountant No. We have created two Z tables, one for the Responsible Accountant info, and one for the Responsible Analyst info. These Z tables have been populated with the necessary data, no problems. The Issue is that in table PROJ, only the Responsible Account No., and Responsible Analyst No. is displayed, and not their respective Names. Why are they populated in the Z table but not in table PROJ?

Hi,
First thing is when your are saving number are you also saving description from your Ztable to proj table zfields for description? For this I assume you have also added description field in PROJ table.
Also I am wondering why you want to store description in PROJ table. You have number in PROJ table and when ever or where ever you want you can pick description from Ztable. This will help to maintain consistency in logng term.
Say for example today you have description ABC PQR XYZ in Ztable and while saving this description will be saved in PROJ. Later due to some reaosn you changed description to ABC UVW PQR in Ztable. Now you see the description will be different in PROJ and Ztable. Hence I would just maintain number in Proj and get description always from Ztable. Hope this makes sense.
Enjoy SAP.

How to handle Custom field added in BP : Role Bill Account

Hi Friends,
I am working on an interface which creates Bill Account role for a BP but the problem is there are about 15 Custom fields added to standard BP transaction in BA role.
As I am using BAPI_BUPA_FS_CREATE_FROM_DATA2 for creating the BP and
BAPI_BUPA_CENTRAL_CHANGE for changing the BP role Bill Account?
Can anyone tell me how to handle those custom fields in the existing BAPIs or there is some other way of doing it?
Thanks in advance,
Pradeep
Note : Helpful answers will be rewarded.

Hi,
I have seen these BAPIs but are they used with normal BAPIs for BP creation and change.
For example : I create the BP using BAPI_BUPA_FS_CREATE_FROM_DATA2 and for the Custom fields I should use these BAPIs as suggested by you alongwith the create BAPI.
And will it work for Changing the BP also.
Kindly clarify.
Regards,
Pradeep

Including customized fields in Field selection for Project definition

Hi Experts,
I have created additional zfields in Project definition,
But those fields are not coming in customization node " Field selection for Project Definition".
Is there any way , by which we can include those fields in the list of " Field selection for Project Definition" in customization ,
so that i can hide/disable for diff project Profile.
Thanx in adv.
Regards
Ashis

Hi,
actually one can try to add customer fields to field configuration using transaction SFAW alike SAP own fields.
It is usually possible to extend the list of the modifiable fields of the field selection in transaction SFAW within the framework of a
modification (as long as the fields are relative to tables PRPS or PROJ). The relevant module pool is SAPLCJWB.
Example
E.g. for the SAP field 'functional area' (field PRPS-FUNC_AREA) one would proceed as follows:
In the transaction SFAW, Module pool SAPLCJWB, Screen group PRPS
-Select 'Modified fields', and choose 'Change'.
-Enhance the list of the modifiable fields by the following entries :
PRPS-FUNC_AREA. Answer yes to the question : do you want the field to
be modifiable?.
Don't forget to save and then click on the 'generate button' of the
transaction SFAW.
- The relevant field for distribution profile would be PRPS-PGPRF.
In the same manner one can try to add the Z field.
Please note: This procedure is considered as a modification, so please review note
114390 which discusses a problem which can occur during an upgrade.
Kind regards

Adding custom fields to FPE1/2/3 transaction screen

Hi guys,
I need to add custom fields from table DFKKOP to transactions FPE1/2/3 under ADDITIONAL DATA area while manually entering NEW BUSINESS PARTNER ITEM.
The transaction is not BDT enabled and does not have a screen exit. The user exit and BaDI dont seem helpful to me.
The screenshot below shows the user exits and BaDI for the transaction.
Link: Exits
What are my options to add fields to the transaction screen now?
Please help out!

Hi,
Yea i got the functional guys to configure it. Was a unique issue!.....But I know how they did it.
You can add it through SPRO transaction. Go to the below mentioned path.
Go to SAP Reference IMG
Financial Accounting > Contract Accounts Receivable and Payable > Basic Functions > Posting and Documents > Document >
Screen Preparartions > Include Own Fields in Detail Screens.
Here you need to enter the details from FPE1 transaction screen.
Activity Documentation:
Include Own Fields in Detail Screens
In this activity you can, if you have added customer fields to the document structures, include these customer fields in the entry screens of the transaction for posting documents.
For the detail screens (business partner item and G/L account item) you can create a screen that contains your own fields. You must create this screen as a subscreen using the Screen Painter. In addition you have to create modules for the intialization and for data transfer (PBO and PAI).
Activities
If you have extended the document strutures to includes customer fields, and you need these fields in the entry screens for posting documents, you must create the screen using the Screen Painter.
Carry out this step to create the screen and the modules that go with it in the system. You do not have to activate these afterwards.
Further notes
Read the field help for each field in the table. This describes the exact procedure.

How to add a custom field to the "Projects" page "Group by" data menu list

Hi,
I'm deploying Project Online and I want to group projects by a custom field on the "Projects" page. Currently I can see options for group by Project Name, Start, Finish, % complete etc. I would like to group by a custom field of programme name
which is filled in on the Project Details form.
I can create the enterprise field etc, however I can't work out how to make the new enterprise field appear in this list. Or am I barking up the wrong tree and should be creating separate Project Types for each programme?
Any help an advise greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Conrad

Hello, add the programme field to the Project Center view then it will be available to group by. Paul

VBA - Setting Custom Fields For Sub-Projects Using a Master File

Hello,
I was wondering if anyone had any experience or could provide some help with a Macro to set the Custom Fields in Sub-Project Files directly from the Macro. I had this macro working in the past with Project 2007, but it has been a couple years and I am struggling
to resolve an error. I am currently running Project 2010 with SP2. I intend to use this Macro in our Server 2010 environment, however at this time, I'm testing locally on my desktop.
Scenario.
I have a Master File with 2 sub-project (Project A, and Project B) inserted. While working in the Master File, I create a custom field title "TEAM Lookup". While in the Master File and without having to individually go and open, edit, save, and
close each sub-project, push the custom field down to the project files.
ERROR: Currently, the Macro will run and I can step through the lines of code until line 12 where I'm asking Project to use the organizer to shift the newly created custom field from the Master File to a sub-project. The line appears to
populate correctly, but instead of continuing through the loop, an error is caught (ID - 1101 - "The File (Master File) was not found")
Any ideas or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Sample Code
1. Sub CopyCustomFieldToSubprojects()
2. Dim MASTER, custfield, contin, AllDone
3. Dim SubProj As Subproject
4. Alerts False
5. MASTER = ActiveProject.Name
6. Application.EnableCancelKey = pjInterrupt
7. custfield = CustomFieldGetName(ActiveCell.FieldID) & ActiveCell.FieldName
8. On Error GoTo errhand
9. contin = MsgBox("This macro will copy the field " & "(" & custfield & ")" & " (the currently selected field) to all subprojects in this consolidated schedule." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Be
patient, it may take more than 70 seconds to run. You will be notified when it's done. Continue?", vbOKCancel)
10.    If contin = vbCancel Then GoTo done
11.    For Each SubProj In ActiveProject.Subprojects
12.    OrganizerMoveItem Type:=pjFields, FileName:=MASTER, ToFileName:=SubProj.SourceProject.Name, Name:=custfield
13.    Next SubProj
14.     AllDone = MsgBox("The " & custfield & " field has been copied to all subprojects.", vbOKOnly)
15. GoTo done
16. errhand:
17. ret = err.Description
18. ret1 = err.Number
19. done:
20. End Sub

SGBlaine,
Project VBA can get rather fussy about some things so you just have to find out what it wants and then adjust your code accordingly. The following will work:
Note the tweaks to the custfield variable and to the MASTER and source project names. Also when working with strings in VBA it is a good idea to eliminate at least one little gotcha, the need for exact capitalization. Therefore I always add the Option Compare
Text statement. In your macro it won't make any difference since you do not directly create a string value, but it's good practice to have the option.
Option Compare Text
Sub CopyCustomFieldToSubprojects()
Dim MASTER, custfield, contin, AllDone
Dim SubProj As Subproject
Alerts False
MASTER = ActiveProject.FullName 'FullName includes the path, now it can find it
Application.EnableCancelKey = pjInterrupt
custfield = CustomFieldGetName(ActiveCell.FieldID) & " (" & ActiveCell.FieldName & ")"
'strings are very fussy, it has to be exact
On Error GoTo errhand
contin = MsgBox("This macro will copy the field " & "(" & custfield & ")" & " (the currently selected field) to all subprojects in this consolidated schedule." & vbCrLf & vbCrLf & "Be
patient, it may take more than 70 seconds to run. You will be notified when it's done. Continue?", vbOKCancel)
If contin = vbCancel Then GoTo done
For Each SubProj In ActiveProject.Subprojects
OrganizerMoveItem Type:=pjFields, FileName:=MASTER, ToFileName:=SubProj.SourceProject.FullName, Name:=custfield
Next SubProj
AllDone = MsgBox("The " & custfield & " field has been copied to all subprojects.", vbOKOnly)
GoTo done
errhand:
ret = Err.Description
ret1 = Err.Number
done:
End Sub

Defaulting a customer field (added through EEW) while bus. obj creation.

Hi All,
There a customer field added through EEW.
Now suppose when we are creating an object (BUS2000170, in my case) this customer filed value should be set the a default value. Under GENIL_MODEL_BROWSER i can see this filed in 'BTitemcustext'.
I am trying to do it through EVENTS (by calling a FM after AFTER_CREATE event) but i could not find 'BTitemcustext' in the table type CRMT_EXTENSION_COMT.
Now i dont know where to set this value.
Can anyobe please help on how we can set default value for fields developed through EEW.
Thanx,
Abhi.
Edited by: abhishek ranjan on Jan 7, 2011 10:11 AM

Hi Rajni,
This BADI will only be called when i will save the order.
I want to set the default value the moment the object is created. Thats why i wanted to do it through events(CRMV_EVENT).
The reason being suppose the order is not saved , till then this default value will not be visible in the UI side(Even after the object creation).
Also where i can set this default value??
I mean this field is available under the model 'BTITEMCUSTEXT'. Also the filed is not visible in the table type for extensions (CRMT_EXTENSION_COMT).
Please let me know i am wrong.

FM for CUSTOM FIELDS added in BP transaction

Hi all,
We have added few custom fields in the BP transaction.
Now the thing is we need to update those using Function module.
Could any one please help me like in which Function Module can i found those
fields once i add in the BP transaction?
Thanks and Regards,
Gopinath A

Hi Gopi,
Have you used EEW to add these fields?
There should be a function module(s) generated for this new fields which you can use to update this fields? Probably something like
'BUPA_CENTRAL_CI_CHANGE'
Hope this helps.

Regarding Adding Custom Fields to VTTK and VT01n transaction.

Hi,
We need to add few custom fields to Shipment header table VTTK.
Also, these fields should be reflected in 'Additional Data' tab of transaction VT01n/VT02n for editing and should be available for display in VT03n.
If anyone has done this, please provide the approach.
Thanks,
Arshad

Hi Arshad,
The fields suppl.1 to suppl.4 and Addit.text 1 to Addit.text 4 are the reserve fields available in additional data tab of shipment.
If those fields are not being used already, u can utilise those fields for your purpose. Please check the documentation for the fields ADD01 to ADD04 and TEXT1 to TEXT4 in VTTK table.
The description of the fields can be modified from CMOD transaction.

0CO_OM_OPA_6: Custom fields added, Data - available in RSA3, but not in PSA

Hi Friends,
I have added some custom fields to the 0CO_OM_OPA_6 data source. Following are the details.
1) Custom fields: ZZEBELN (Purchasing Doc), ZZUSNAM (Username)
2) Code populated in SE19 (BADI for this Datasource)
3) RSA3: Test extraction pulls the records for both the custom fields correctly.
4) RSA5, and RSA6 - Fields are unchecked for hidden and field only. They are made available.
5) Extract Structure replicated into BW and its pulled over from extract structure into Transfer structure.
6) Mapped to corresponding fields in BW update rule and transfer rules. (No routines or formulas exist)/
7) When load extracted into BW, data is blank for both the fields in PSA itself.
Our BW is 7.3 but we still use this datasource as 3.x transfer rules and datasource. In BW, it is connected to the Cube 0OPA_C11 via update rules and 3.x transfer rules only.
Is there any reason for the data being populated into the RSA3, where as not into PSA. Please consider the above points, and let me know if I have done or missing anything here in my steps. I have gone thru several forums and havent got any specific replies for such issues. Have you come across such issues, please share your thoughts and views.
Any of your replies will definitely help. Really appreciate your inputs.
Thanks!!
Prasith

Hi Prasith ,
After reading all the answers , what i feel we are missing a major step ie Re-initialization of the cube .
As you changed the extract structure and added new fields and for this Data source i assume that deltas were running already , the BW system cannot pull these new fields directly from ECC unless you have not done a re-INit again .
The Re-init is pretty simple and not as complex as LO.
I would advise you to re-init for 01.2014 till 016.9999 , run full load and then delatas will flow in later on . Check during the full load if you are able to see these fields in BW in (PSA/ Cube) .
But be careful you need to do Re-init only on week ends when there are no transactions happening else you might end up in duplicate data .
Hope this helps !
Let me know how it goes .
Regards
Zeenath

How to change the Tab name for a custom field added in IC Winclient

I have successfully added a field using eewb and it is appearing on my transaction in CIC0 but it is on a tab that says Customer Fields. In EEWB a BADI called ZEEW_CUSTOMER_H01 was generated and it has a methods called CRM_CUSTOMER_H_SET_TITLE. It indicates you should be able to use this to rename the tab but the method is empty. Anyone have an example of the code you pass in to rename the tab screen. Thanks, Lisa

>>and how will it effect in the report?
You wouldn't see any direct effect on the Report.. But if you transport the report to QA & leave the Message class in Dev, it might result in syntax issues & you will not be able to execute the report. Just ensure that both of them get transported to QA & you will be fine.

Problem in delta management for custom fields added in standard Table

Hi developers,
we have a problem, when a sales order is modified in a field custom, added in tables (VBAP-VBAK), the delta BW doesn't recognize the modifications. The data type of these fields haven't the flag (Change document) setted in
view Definition.
If this flag is setted, Can the delta BW recognize the modifications of the custom fields?
Best regards
Domenico

You cannot get delta by just appending fields to extract structure & writing the user exit coding as this user exit code is run by the extractor after the X- and Y- tables are compared to create the before & after images.
You have to do this procedure by enhancing LIS comm structures like MCVBAP (for example).
Please refer to OSS note 576886 for complete details.
