I now manged to update a marketing attribute, but to do so I needed to update a marketing attribute which did not have any fixed values, it was an open marketing attributes. Is it not possible to update marketing attributes with fixed values? Do I have to do something special?

How to change Customer Fields in CRM_DNO_MONITOR ALV to texts???

Hi Guys,
I have created some customer fields and added them succesfully to the CRM_DNO_MONITOR via the Badi CRM_DNO_MONITOR. Some fields are drop downs and have F4 value help attached to them.
My problem is that the Key is shown in the result ALV and not the text. The F4 help is available
Can I controll this behaviour???
Or do I have to enhance my implementation of the badi to show the texts or can I make any changes to the append structure of the CRMT_DNO_SERVICE_MONITOR???
Thanks and best wishes.
Abosi

Hi,
i think the best way is to add a new custom field to your append strucutre of CRMT_DNO_SERVICE_MONITOR.
Then you can read the text value with the Key and insert it in this field using BADI CRM_DNO_MONITOR.
So the user can choose himself if he wants to see the Key or the text in CRM_DNO_MONITOR.
By the way, it is not necessary to add this field in your append structure for CRMT_CUSTOMER_H_EXT since it is not necessary to see it in CRMD_ORDER.

How do I change custom field description and name on the project fields PDP

I'm creating a custom PDP for a workflow process and I need to add the folloiwng fields "Project Name" and "Description"
When I try to create Project Name custom field under server settings I get the following message "The custom field name cannot match the name of any intrinsic fields."
So I went to the PDP web part Project fields and I found a field named " Project Name". I added it to the Proejct Fields web part, but it displays as "Name".
How can I change this field that's out of the box? I don't see "Project Name" and "Description" under server settings > Enterprise Custom Fields and Lookup Tables to modify them.
Thank you

Hi there,
Project Name & description fields are internal fields in project server which you cannot view in Enterprise custom fields in PWA. You will not be able to create with the similar name. There is no way to change these fields as far as I know.
I would suggest to have the new fields name something like Project_Name/ ProjName or Project_Description/ProjDescription .
Hope that helps.Thanks, Amit Khare |EPM Consultant| Blog: http://amitkhare82.blogspot.com http://www.linkedin.com/in/amitkhare82

BAPI SALES ORDER CHANGE CUSTOM FIELD

Hello Gurus,
I am trying to update a custom field for sales order. The field name is zfield1 in vbak. The field is added to vbakkom, vbakkomx, vbakkoz, vbakkozx, BAPE_VBAK, BAPE_VBAKX. I guess i need to use the EXTENSIONIN table to populate this field's values to change it with the BAPI. But I not sure exactly how to populate the fields. Can someone tell me how exactly i need to do this?
Also the documentation says fill Extensionin this way.
STRUCTURE VALUEPART1 1234561234567890123
BAPE_VBAP 0000004711000020 XYZ
BAPE_VBAPX 0000004711000020 X
What is the 1234561234567890123? Is it a field?
Thanks,

Populating Customized fields in Sales Order Creation using BAPI

Hi All,
I have a requirement that, I need to populate 2 customized fields which are appedned in the VBAK tables through Append structure. I am using BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 FM for creating it.
Could anybody tell me how to send these 2 coustomized field values in this BAPI using EXTERNIN parameter.
Regards
Rajesh
[email protected]

Hi,
To add data to custom fields there are two appraoches.
1)Using the EXTENSIONIN in the Tables option in the FM BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2
Check the Documentation for the same,
Customer Enhancement for VBAK, VBAP, VBEP
Description
You can use this parameter to transfer user-specific enhancments to a BAPI. The customer has to complete the EXTENSION structure and the system automatically continues processing it. If you have not defined any user-specific fields, then you can transfer a blank EXTENSIONIN structure.
Technical information about Customer Enhancements
The following description uses an example to explain how to proceed with customer enhancements to the SD tables VBAK, VBKD, VBAP and VBEP.
The customer has added their own fields to table VBAP using the INCLUDE structure CUTEST. This structure contains 2 fields:
CFIELD1, CHAR 10
CFIELD2, CHAR 3.
The customer also requires that these two fields can be maintained with the BAPI.
1. Maintain structure CUTEST in table VBAP
2. Because the BAPIs work with checkboxes, you must also define a CUTESTX checkbox for the customer structure. It should be structured like this:
Field name Data element
CFIELD1 CHAR1
CFIELD2 CHAR1
3. Define these customer structures in the structures VBAPKOZ und VBAPKOZX using INCLUDE or APPEND.
4. Add the customer structures to the BAPE_VBAP and BAPE_VBAPX BAPI structures using the APPEND technique.
5. Adjust the following structures for customer enhancements to table VBAK:
a) VBAKKOZ
b) VBAKKOZX
c) BAPE_VBAK
d) BAPE_VBAKX
6. Adjust the following structures for customer enhancements to table VBEK:
a) VBEPKOZ
b) VBEPKOZX
c) BAPE_VBEP
d) BAPE_VBEPX
7. Generally, the data should be added to the BAPI interface in the internal communication structures (VBAKKOM, and so on). There, you can process the data in the SD tables (VBAK, and so on).
8. If the EXTENSIONIN parameter contains customer data, you must complete at least the key fields in the relevant standard parameters.
For example:
You want to change customer field VBAP-CFIELD2 for item 20 to "XYZ" in order 4711.
The following entries are expected:
Import: BAPIVBELN-VBELN = '0000004711' Document number
 BAPISDHD1X-UPDATEFLAG = 'U' UPDKZ for doc header
Tables: BAPISDITM-ITM_NUMBER = '000020' Item number
 BAPISDITMX-ITM_NUMBER = '000020' Item number
 + BAPISDITMX-UPDATEFLAG = 'U' UPDKZ for item
You must complete the EXTENSION table as follows:
STRUCTURE VALUEPART1 1234561234567890123
BAPE_VBAP 0000004711000020 XYZ
BAPE_VBAPX 0000004711000020 X
Further Information
You can find more information in the BAPI programming guide in the chapter for enhancements to BAPIs.
Notes
You must complete the STRUCTURE field with the name of the relevant enhancement structure (BAPE_VBAK, BAPE_VBAP, BAPE_VBEP). You can complete the remaining fields with the append structures from the enhancement structures.
At the moment, you can use the BAPI to store enhancements in the following structures:
VBAK : An enhancement to header data requires an append structure to BAPE_VBAK and an enhancement to structure VBAKKOZ.
VBAP : An enhancement to item data requires an append structure to BAPE_VBAP and an enhancment to structure VBAPKOZ.
VBEP : An enhancement to schedule line data requires an append structure to BAPE_VBEP and an enhancement to structure VBEPKOZ.
VBKD : If you are using an enhancement for header data, you must add an append structure to BAPE_VBAK. You also need to enhance structure VBAKKOZ. If it is for item data, you need to add an append structure to BAPE_VBAP. You must also enhance structure VBAPKOZ.
If you also want to work with checkboxes, each X-structure must also contain an append structure.
For example:
A customer has created an order and wants to include the material long text (50 digits long).
The EXTENSIONIN structure must be completed with BAPE_VBAP. Two fields have fixed definitions in this structure. These are in the VBAP host key (VBELN, POSNR). The customer sets up an append structure that contains field ZMAT50.
Because the VBELN is normally blank when you create an order, the data can look like this:
STRUCTURE |BAPE_VBAP
2) Create the Sales Document using the FM and when successfully craeted you will get the Sales Document No in the Export parameter SALESDOCUMENT.
After its created and Committed using BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT , do a BDC recording for the same to (VA02 Change Sales Order) update the fields only and save the document.

Custom field in Purchase Requisition Release

Hi all,
I have create a popup with a custom field when the user releases first step of a Requisition Release, via ME54N.
The system don't save my custom field, I have used this exit:
EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_005 of the ampliament MEREQ001.
my code:
   CALL SCREEN 999 STARTING starting at 5 10                 MOVE: eban-zzsubmi       TO ls_item-zzsubmi,
            eban-zzappunto     TO ls_item-zzappunto,
            zzautfor           TO ls_item-zzautfor,
            eban-zzattautor    TO ls_item-zzattautor,
            eban-zzdatattoauto TO ls_item-zzdatattoauto.
   CALL METHOD im_req_item->set_data( ls_item ).
the ls_item, is ok, with my custom field, but seeing in debug this method, the system don't save my field.
Maybe we don't have the permission of change custom field on EKKO during Release step?
Thanks all.
Reward for all.

Hi ,
Try with create new tab in PR item level, add field in custom tab example Final release Tab.
Try to fetch data from EBAN table when final release happened ( based on status ) the date will update in this table. I hope this is helpful.
Use user exit to create custom tab and custom field
enhancement MEREQ001 : check this enhancement.
user exit EXIT_SAPLMEREQ_0*
I hope it is helpful

Who has changed the Custom Field value?

Dears,
Need to know the information regarding how to fetch that who has changed the Custom field value from PWA/MPP.
Example:
There is a PDP (say ProjectInfo):
There is a Custom Field added to that PDP (say Project Status = In Progress).
Now for ProjectA, someone has checked out and changed the Custom Field "Project Status" from "In Progress" to "Closed".
I need to fetch the information regarding who has changed that Custom field.
In which direction should I move: Event Handlers, PSI???? Any other stuff?
Thanks & Regards,
Shravan

Hi Shravan,
I'm not a developer but I do know that you can use an event handler pushing the resource name and date in custom fields.
Another way is to use a 3rd-party tool like
FluentPro Audit Tool.
Hope this helps,

Solman 7.1 - CRM WebClient UI - custom field mandatory on status change

Hi
I've got a question and I'm not sure if it's possible.
Basically i have created a custom field in CRM WebClient UI and I have added this field to my Z configuration. This works fine.
Now, I'm wanting to make an error to appear if this field is blank (hasn't been filled in) when the status of the transaction type changes to a specific status.
i.e. if "custom field" is BLANK when SMTM changes to Closed, then error appears
I know the field can be made mandatory, but this particular custom field won't be filled out straight away. Therefore I want the check to occur when the document is closed. Can this be done via PPF Conditions? Or is ABAP/enhancement the only way?
Thanks
Shaun

Hi,
For customizing crm web ui, you must need AET or EEWB tools. Best Practices for SAP CRM Web UI Customization - CRM - SCN Wiki
but try by using the standard sap note 1772650 - ST710:You can save a message even though mandatory fields are not filled in. which can set certain warning message for custom fields or not and the other relevant 1931783 - Incident can be saved without filling mandatory fields
Please check.
Thanks

Delta load not picking the changes to Custom Fields in 0CRM_QUOTA_ORDER_I

We have enhanced the structure of CRM datasource 0CRM_QUOTA_ORDER_I for some additional fields that are held on the quotation. These are being successfully extracted when the quotation is being created. We have been running with this exctract for some time but we have been made aware that the additional fields on the append structure are not being updated when the quotation is being changed. Therefore delta changes are not being picked up making the reports incorrect.
The user exit we are using to extract the information is EXIT_SAPLRSAP_001
Does anyone know how we can enable this change so that delta changes are picked up by the extractor.
Many thanks
Gareth

Hi Gareth,
Can you please check that the custom fields were added as described in question 4 in the SAP note
692195? If yes and there is still a problem please check that the SAP note 1319891 has been applied
in your system, it is a pilot note so you will need to raise a message with SAP to get added to the pilot
note.

Use easy enhancement workbench
The Easy Enhancement Workbench is a development tool with which SAP applications (called Business Objects in the following document) can be extended in a simple manner.
Customer enhancements to a Business Object are defined via wizards. The Workbench then does all development work for the user; databank tables, screens and application logic are created automatically. Finally the customer enhancement is included in the SAP standard.
This also allows users without ABAP knowledge the simple possibility of extending the SAP standard.
An extension created using the Easy Enhancement Workbench does not differ technically from one created manually. In both cases transportable ABAP objects are created and the same Customer Exits, Business Transaction Events or BAdIs are implemented
You need to use EEWB feature to achieve the same.

Where it is possible to change the value separator in Custom Field?

Hello,
This is a question around the "Custom Fields" and "Lookup Table"
I linked a "Custom Field" to a "Lookup Table".
I select the option "Allow multiple values to be selected from lookup table"
When I used this "Custom Field" in a view, the selected values are separated by a comma ",".
Where it is possible to change this value?
I saw another project server where the character is a semi-column ";" and I would like to test with ";".
Thank you in advance
Pascal Jean

Hi,
This will be triggered by your regional settings.
Hope this helps,
Guillaume Rouyre, MBA, MVP, P-Seller |
Hello,
Thank you for the answer.
Do you mean the "local regional settings"?
Because, depending on the PWA site I'm connected to I don't have the same values. I'm obviously using the same workstation.

In Purchase order screen,under account assignment,we want to see the acocunt assignment detailed view as the default view under tab "ACCOUNT ASSIGNMENT".Click on the DETAILS button and then the details show up in the bottom part of the screen.
Can anyone advise how do we change the postion of fields in the account assignment tab which are created dynamically.
My requirement is :
Rahmenkostenstelle field should come below Bahnstelle field
WebDynpro Component: /SAPSRM/WDC_UI_DO_ACC
View: V_DO_ACCOUNT_DETAIL
Thanks,
Aarthi.

Hi,
Did you manage to solve the issue? I've tried to define customizing point "Configure Generic Field Display on User Interface" with no luck.
I've even tried to enhance the corresponding WD Component for SC items detail. Field position is correct in the layout editor, but position changes when fields are rendered in runtime.
Does anybody have any idea regarding related OSS? what am I missing?

PS 2013 - Changing the formula in custom field not reflected in the report columns

Hi,
The company where I work have a Sharepoint environment / EPM 2013 with about seven hundred registered projects.
We have a customer demand where it is necessary to change the formula of one of the custom fields of the environment. This field is used in some management reports made in Reporting Services and accessed by the entire board. The report uses as a source
'MSP_EpmProject_UserView' view.
The change in formula was simple, but we found that the change will not be reflected in the reports when the user saves the project in Sharepoint or publish the schedule associated with the Project.
I believe this is the expected behavior of the EPM, but I wonder if there is some other way than through the PSI, to publish all environmental projects.
Best regards,
Armando Machado Gonçalves - Sharepoint / EPM 2013

Hello,
That is expected, it will not update until the project is open and republished. No automatic way to do this without automating project pro. Publishing all projects via the PSI wont cause the plan to recalculate, the plans will need to be opened.
