Customised help in SAP standard

Hi everybody
I have a very peculiar specification.
The users want to have a customised help on the main screens - like ME21N, MIGO,MIRO etc
I know that thers a HTML document to be attached to each screen or fields on the screen
But how to attach them, I dont know
anybody has any idea?

Hi,
pasted documentation of data element additional documentation:
The documentation of a data element is displayed in the F1 help for each screen field that refers to this data element.
You can enhance the documentation of the data element with screen- specific information using data element supplements. A data element supplement must be assigned to a screen. The text of the data element supplement appears in the F1 help on this screen in addition to the documentation of the data element.
If a data element supplement is created directly with the corresponding screen (call F1 help, go to documentation maintenance with F7 or the right mouse key, and enter the number of the data element supplement in the next dialog box), the screen and the data element supplement are automatically assigned to each other. Otherwise you must maintain this link in table THLPF.
I hope this will enable you to provide the solution in your company.

Clemens

Adding elementry search help to SAP standard Collective Search help

Hi,
I had copied standard elementary search help to MAT0M to ZZ_MAT0M and added some more fields and activated to it.
it got activated sucessfully.
Now i have to attached the ZZ_MAT0M elementry search help to standard collective search help MAT1_A.
How can i do that?
can i add it directly to MAT1_A (sell --->search help <MAT1_A> changes --> in included search helpss tab using + (insert icon) )
Thanks & regards

I solved my problem :
I had copied standard elementary search help to MAT0M to ZZ_MAT0M and added some more fields and copied Database View M_MAT1M to ZZ_M_MAT1M and addedd same fields and activated both.
both got activated sucessfully.
Now i have to attached the ZZ_MAT0M elementry search help to standard collective search help MAT1_A and this Z-search help shd appear on the first tab.
so I just went to collective search help MAT1_A in change mode --> click on "+" icon addedd my ZZ__ search help, save and activated it.
If you dont really care in which tab your search help shd appear, then the best option is to use Append Search help.
Note : if you are directly adding your search help in collective standard search help, then its better to remove hotkey form your custom elementry search help, as, if not remove will lead to warnings or make sure that you have unique hotkey in that collective search help.

Creating a new Search Help on a standard SAP table field?

Good day, everyone!
As part of a report I am writing, the customer would like to have Search Help added to the AUFEX field in table AUFK. They would like this functionality so that when they are changing an order via t-code ko02, they can get a list of valid values to put in field AUFEX. I would like to tie it to a zTable I've created; in my zTable, I have just 2 fields: a key value (that will go into AUFEX) and a text description of the key value. This zTable is used in my report.
While I've created a Search Help on this table already for table maintenance, I've never added a custom Search Help to an existing standard SAP table field before. I've done some Googling and other searching to see what I need to know, but I've only been able to find information on Collective Search Helps. AUFEX doesn't yet have a Search Help field, so I don't think Collective Search Helps is my answer.
Is this possible? Can I add a custom Search Help to a standard SAP table field that doesn't have any Search Help linked to it yet? Is there an existing thread or guide somewhere that can tell me how to do this?
Thank you!

Hi
Yes u can: u can assign the search help to (A) data element livel or (B) field table livel.
After creating your search help:
A) Run SE11, insert your data element (AUFEX), press edit and insert the search help in "Search Help" area on DEFINATION tab;
B) Run SE11, insert your table (AUFK), press edit, place the cursor on your field (AUFEX) and go to GoTo->Search help->for field
But u should consider it'll mean to change a standard object for both cases: so u need to get the access key from your OSS.

Hi Ishani,
The field that you mentioned here in structure RQM01 is having a check table VBUP. So if some values are there in that table, then that will appear as F4 help to you. Consult with your functional and check how values are coming to this table VBUP. Othertahn this, I am afraid you will not be able attach any help.

Copy SAP Standard

How Do Everyone!
I have copied the SAP standard increment report Y0PR1008 to my Z version.
I have made some changes where the output is now also written to an excel
spreadsheet as well as the screen.
The only difference is that I now have extra lines of code at the end of the
selection. I made sure that there was no change to the logic of the code or
to the selection screen.
However, now it is in production there are a few funnies happening. I run
the Y0PR1008 program against one person. After the GET pernr statement
the program is terminated becuase the selection criteria does not return
any data which is correct.
If I now run my Z program using the same selection criteria against the same
person. The program continues after the GET pernr statement.
Can anyone give me any pointers as to why my Z version could be selecting data
which the SAP standard is not?
Any help very much appreciated.
Thanks
Andy

Report name starting with "Y" is customer namespace just like "Z" - not SAP standard.
Check if the original report has any settings in the HR Info System Report Selection Screen customising in SPRO. This is done based on program name for programs using PNP logical database and could be pre-setting some parts of selection screen layout / values

How to add custom fields to the sap standard program ukm_bp_display

How to add new custom fields to the sap standard program ukm_bp_display .
could u please any one help me on this?

Hello Kumar,
You have to modify below structure, as this structure is providing the field catalog for output display (ALV).
Here you can see there are a lot of include structures, so if you want to add fields in the output display you can add those fileds as an append structure to any of the below mentioned structures (Like ukm_s_account, ukm_s_bp_cms_sgm etc as per your requiremnt and positon at which you need to dispaly your fields.)
DATA: BEGIN OF gt_grid_alv OCCURS 0.
       partner LIKE but000-partner,
       credit_sgmnt LIKE ukmbp_cms_sgm-credit_sgmnt.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ukm_s_account.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ukm_s_bp_cms_sgm.
DATA:   credit_sgmnt_txt LIKE ukmcred_sgm0t-credit_sgmnt_txt.
      Gruppe Vector
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ukm_s_bp_vector.
      Gruppe OBL = Obligo
      include structure UKM_S_BP_CMS_MALUSDSP_OUT.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ukm_s_display_segment.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE ukm_s_bp_cms.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE bus000_dat.
*DATA:   icon(4).
      Gruppe RAST (Raster)
DATA:
         rast01 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID,
         rast02 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID,
         rast03 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID,
         rast04 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID,
         rast05 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID,
         rast06 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID.
DATA:    rast2_6 LIKE ukm_s_display_segment-AMOUNT_GRID.
"Summe raster 2 bis 6
DATA: END OF gt_grid_alv.
Another way is you can go to SE38, and you can create implicit enhancements.One enhancement point is available here in this required area. so create an implementation and add your fileds with data types.This way is also simple.
Hope this will solve yiour problems.

How can i add a new characteristic to Sap standard InfoObject?

Hi Experts,
Please anyone let me know how can I add a new characteristic or a key figure into an SAP standard InfoObject in order to add it to the standard InfoCube? The situation is I would like to add region and business unit to the characteristics of the Industrial Hygiene and Safety. After that, I would like to add them to the InfoCube called Accidents: Person Involved [0EIH_C02] that is located in the MultiProvider called Accidents: Complete View [0EIH_MC01]. Is it feasible to do this way?
I just learned the BW/BI, so please help me with this. I would really appreciate your responses.
Thanks,
-Napadol

Hi Napadol,
To add a attribute in a char:
1) Go to info object/char in change mode and add the additional attribute you want and select navigational attribute in attribute tab if you want. (Create these additional attribute first in info object catalouge)
2) Activate the Object/Char
3) open info cube in change mode and pick the characteristic from left panel to info cube dimension.
4) Activate infocube.
5) Go to multi provider add the char in one of the dimension and do identification for this char and activate.

Create a new button in a sap-standard-view WD4A

In webdynpro for ABAP
I have changed the text on an existing button in a sap-standard-view using configuration (change application configuration/go to component configurator/implicit configuration and then on the view-component change the text) it works perfect.....
my next step is to create a new button beside the old one with a new text on it, I created a new button by using "enhance view" (I copied the existing button) the new button appears (so far so good) but when I go into the configuration to change the text on the new button (using configuration the same way I did when I changed the text on the existing button) I cant find my new button in the view-component list....why can't I find it there so I can change the text?
Can anyone help me this one?

I don't believe that the Configuration tool picks up Enhancement Objects because of the way they are linked to the original component at Runtime. Why set the text using configuration? You can control the text within the enhancement object. Do you want different texts based upon multiple configurations?

Do you trust the SAP standard rule set ?

Hello all,
I have the impression that, too often, the SAP standard ruleset has been taken for granted : upload, generate and use. Here is a post as to why not to do so. Hopefuly, this will generate a interesting discussion.
As I have previously stated in other threads, you should be very careful accepting the SAP standard rule set without reviewing it first. Before accepting it, you should ensure that your specific SAP environment has been reflected in the functions. The 2 following questions deal with this topic :
1. what is your SAP release ? ---> 46C is different than ECC 6.0 in terms of permissions to be included in the function permission tab. With every SAP release, new authorization objects are linked to SAP standard tcodes. Subsequently some AUTHORITY-CHECK statements have been adapted in the ABAP behind the transaction code. So, other authorizations need to provided from an implementation point of view (PFCG). And thus, from an audit perspective (GRC-CC), other settings are due when filtering users' access rights in search for who can do what in SAP.
2. what are your customizing settings and master data settings ? --> depending on these answers you will have to (de)activate certain permissions in your functions. Eg. are authorization groups for posting periods, business areas, material types, ... being used ? If this is not required in the SAP system and if activated in SAP GRC function, then you filter down your results too hard, thereby leaving certain users out of the audit report while in reality they can actually execute the corresponding SAP functionality --> risk for false negatives !
Do not forget that the SAP standard ruleset is only an import of SU24 settings of - probably - a Walldorf system. That's the reason SAP states that the delivered rule set is a starting point.
So, the best practice is :
a. collect SAP specific settings per connector in a separate 'questionnaire' document, preferably structured in a database
b. reflect these answers per function per connector per action per permission by correctly (de)activating the corresponding permissions for all affected functions
You can imagine that this is a time-consuming process due to the amount of work and the slow interaction with the Java web-based GRC GUI. Therefore, it is a quite cumbersome and at times error-prone activity ...... That is, in case you would decide to implement your questionnaire answers manually. There are of course software providers on the market that can develop and maintain your functions in an off-line application and generate your rule set so that you can upload it directly in SAP GRC. In this example such software providers are particularly interesting, because your questionnaire answers are structurally stored and reflected in the functions. Any change now or in the future can be mass-reflected in all (hundreds / thousands of) corresponding permissions in the functions. Time-saving and consistent !
Is this questionnaire really necessary ? Can't I just activate all permissions in every function ? Certainly not, because that would - and here is the main problem - filter too much users out of your audit results because the filter is too stringent. This practice would lead too false negatives, something that auditors do not like.
Can't I just update all my functions based on my particular SU24 settings ? (by the way, if you don't know what SU24 settings are, than ask your role administrator. He/she should know. ) Yes, if you think they are on target, yes you can by deleting all VIRSA_CC_FUNCPRM entries from the Rules.txt export of the SAP standard rule set, re-upload, go for every function into change mode so that the new permissions are imported based on your SU24 settings. Also, very cumbersome and with the absolute condition that you SU24 are maintained excellent.
Why is that so important ? Imagine F_BKPF_GSB the auth object to check on auth groups on business areas within accounting documents. Most role administrator will leave this object on Check/Maintain in the SU24 settings. This means that the object will be imported in the role when - for example - FB01 has been added in the menu. But the role administrator inactivates the object in the role. Still no problem, because user doesn't need it, since auth groups on business areas are not being used. However, having this SU24 will result in an activated F_BKPF_GSB permission in your GRC function. So, SAP GRC will filter down on those users who have F_BKPF_GSB, which will lead to false negatives.
Haven't you noticed that SAP has deactivated quite a lot of permissions, including F_BKPF_GSB ? Now, you see why. But they go too far at times and even incorrect. Example : go ahead and look deeper into function AP02. There, you will see for FB01 that two permissions have been activated. F_BKPF_BEK and F_BKPF_KOA. The very basic authorizations needed to be able to post FI document are F_BKPF_BUK and F_BKPF_KOA. That's F_BKPF_BUK .... not F_BKPF_BEK. They have made a mistake here. F_BKPF_BEK is an optional auth object (as with F_BKPF_GSB) to check on vendor account auth groups.
Again, the message is : be very critical when looking at the SAP standard rule set. So, test thoroughly. And if your not sure, leave the job to a specialized firm.
Success !
Sam

Sam and everyone,
Sam brings up some good points on the delivered ruleset. Please keep in mind; however, that SAP has always stated that the delivered ruleset is a starting point. This is brought up in sap note 986996     Best Practice for SAP CC Rules and Risks. I completely agree with him that no company should just use the supplied rules without doing a full evaluation of their risk and control environment.
I'll try to address each area that Sam brings up:
1. Regarding the issue with differences of auth objects between versions, the SAP delivered rulset is not meant to be version specific. We therefore provide rules with the lowest common denominator when it comes to auth object settings.
The rules were created on a 4.6c system, with the exception of transactions that only exist in higher versions.
The underlying assumption is that we want to ensure the rules do not have any false negatives. This means that we purposely activate the fewest auth objects required in order to execute the transaction.
If new or different auth object settings come into play in the higher releases and you feel this results in false positives (conflicts that show that don't really exist), then you can adjust the rules to add these auth objects to the rules.
Again, our assumption is that the delivered ruleset should err on the side of showing too many conflicts which can be further filtered by the customer, versus excluding users that should be reported.
2. For the customizing settings, as per above, we strive to deliver rules that are base level rules that are applicable for everyone. This is why we deliver only the core auth objects in our rules and not all. A example is ME21N.
If you look at SU24 in an ECC6 system, ME21N has 4 auth objects set as check/maintain. However, in the rules we only enable one of the object, M_BEST_BSA. This is to prevent false negatives.
3. Sam is absolutely right that the delivered auth object settings for FB01 have a mistake. The correct auth object should be F_BKPF_BUK and not F_BKPF_BEK. This was a manual error on my part. I've added this to a listing to correct in future versions of the rules.
4. Since late 2006, 4 updates have been made to the rules to correct known issues as well as expand the ruleset as needed. See the sap notes below as well as posting Compliance Calibrator - Q2 2008 Rule Update from July 22.
1083611 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q3 2007
1061380 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q2 2006
1035070 Compliance Calibrator Rule Update Q1 2007
1173980 Risk Analysis and Remediation Rule Update Q2 2008
5. SAP is constantly working to improve our rulesets as we know there are areas where the rules can be improved. See my earlier post called Request for participants for an Access Control Rule mini-council from January 28, 2008. A rule mini-council is in place and I welcome anyone who is interested in joining to contact me at the information provided in that post.
6. Finally, the document on the BPX location below has a good overview of how companies should review the rules and customize them to their control and risk environment:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/bpx-grc
Under Key Topics - Access Control; choose document below:

The access risk management guide helps you set up and implement risk
identification and remediation with GRC Access Control.

Need to find All Custom Reports which are based on SAP standard reports

Hi Specialists,
I would like to find out all the customized reports which are a copy of SAP standard reports in the client's system.
For Eg. RPCP11G0 is the SAP standard report which has been customized & it's code has been re-written into a Custom report i.e. ZGBPPYMP001_P11D.
I would like to know all such occurences in the system.
Steps already done:
1) Tried searching with RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN & RS_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN.
Please suggest .
Thanks
Abhinav.

it's only possible with an tool-program
when your developers have not change the line with the REPORT-command.
e.g.
standard-report is RAGITT01
copy is ZC_RAGITT01 or sth like this
but report line is unchanged in copy: "REPORT RAGITT01 MESSAGE-ID AB..."
solution:
select all reports from TRDIR/TADIR from your Z/Y-device classes
and analyse the reports with
read report ZC_RAGITT01 into wa.
and use find for searching 'report-command'.
and check whether the result of that finding is an standard abap
hope that helps
Andreas
