Maintaining Table Entries directly in production

Hi All,
I have created a Z table. This table has been moved to production. Currently table entries are transported to production from development client. But this table regularly gets changed and so this needs to be maintained day to day basis. As per the policies transport request to production is moved only at specific times. Client in the production is not modifiable (Closed Client where no change authorization). To maintain the entries in the table every time client in the production should be opened.
Can you please let me know is there any way we can maintain the entries without opening the client for changes and without moving the entries with the transport request? Is there any other way to maintain the entries?
Thanks in Advance,
Shravan G.

Dear,
Create a maintainence view on that Z table. In that Maintainence table select Maint status->Delivery class-> select "Customizing" option. If any one creates new entry in Dev, system popsup for a TR. Those new entries will be saved in to TR. You can transport that TR across landscape.
The above one general practice for customization.
If you dont want that, create a table maintainence dialog on that z table and hence create a tcode with SM30 from SE93 transaction code.
Go to SE93-> select transaction with parameter
                      Enter transaction SM30
                      check Skip initial screen
                      In default values maintain below:
                  VIEWNAME     Z table name
                  UPDATE     x
Using that tcode you can maintain values directly in production
Thanks and Regards,

Transport table entries directly from table with field added from append S

Hi
Guys, I have changes one standard table , I mean I use append structure and add a new field in to that . As this is T* ( text table ) , it also V ( view ) but as I change the field in T* table . I went in to table and maintain entries directly into table . After that I go to menu and select all the entries and as I want to push it to my test client . I create the entries and then I transport it to test . When I saw the table that entries were missing. Then I saw my existing transport in SE10 & SE09 and I notice it just transport the Keys fields content and its not transporting the new field content which I add as append structure .
Do you guys have any idea .how to transport those entries?
Cheers
Usman

Itll behave in the same way , even you give "*" in your transport . Do one thing go to table, double click on your structure and once youre in structure Go to->Extras->Enhancement category
And select radio button 1 or 2 and try again 
Hope thisll give you idea!!
Pl... award the points.
Good luck
Thanks

Maintaining table entries

Hi Gurus
I am trying to maintain the table T005K for Telephone Fax codes for different countries. After entering the value in Dev system the table was transported to Test and Production enviroment and the entries were there. But after today those entries got deleted. I am not sure if those tables get refreshed or did i miss something in the transport.
Please help.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can go with this checklist to determine what exactly might have caused this data loss.
1. In the DEV System Check the Transport Request in the Transport Organizer. (SE01).
2. In the QUALITY and PROD System also check the same. Check the entries, and check all the code base and also for any error arising out of transport.
3. As this is a customization Table, also have a look at the last access that is made to this table. It might be possible that some program might accidentally have deleted that data.
Thanks,
Samantak.

I have one query about table entries.

i have one query about table entries.
suppose for particular table we maintained 5 entries in dev server. actaully in the dev we have only these 5 entries.
In production we have 200 entries actually.
If we move the cts from dev to production ,we will get 205 entries right
please help me in this.

If i understood correctly, It is a Z table and you have done some changes in DEV system. If you move this to Production, it wont effect the production entries.
There are 2 different ways you can trnasport a Table. 1. with Table entries 2. Without table entries.
If you transport with Table entries then the DEV entries in this case 5 will be moved to PRODUCTION totaling 205.
If you transport without table entries, then in Production you will find only 200 entries.

Add table entry while client is not open

we only have access to SE16, no sm30 maintain table entry authorization, but this can be bypassed by <removed by moderator>.
thus we can modify existing table entry.
but I can't use this method to add additional table entry, any one know how to add entry using se16 debugging?
Moderator message: bypassing authorization checks is not supported in these forums.

I can confirm those activities are checked and active.
SAP Note - 1129764 --> Users can actually see their original workbooks and the ones that have been 'saved as', they just want to be able to modify and just 'save' the original ones.
SAP Note - 1052085 --> This doesn't fit either, users have 'save' button disabled and can only click on save us. Besides we are already running on SP.14
Last note says: "Workbooks are not saved in BW systems that are not changeable.".
This is a statement that bothers me, indeed my client is set closed.
And SCC4 shows these paramenters:
Changes and Transports for client-specific Objects
 --> No changes allowed
Cross-Client Object Changes
 --> No changes to repository and cross-client customizing objs
Protection: Client copier and comparison Tool
 --> X Protection level 1: No overwriting
CATT and eCATT Restrictions
 --> eCATT and CATT not allowed
Restrictions:
(both unchecked).
Are you certain that it is possible to save them while the client is not opened? I'm starting to think that it just can't be done
Thank you for your help.

Gonzalo

Custom table entries transportable / maintainable in production environment

Hi,
I have a custom table with table maintenance generator (automatic transport of table entries). I would also like to maintain the table entires in the production environment (i.e. using SM30 transaction, rather than transporting the entries from Quality). I hope there is a cofiguration to do this.
Could any one help me on this.
Thanks in advance.

Adding to what others have suggested, it is not advisable to give SM30 access to your users. Its better to create a parameter transaction for the maintainance dialog and give the user access to that transaction. Other way of restricting the access is using authorization group selection while creation of maintainance dialog (&NC& will give access to every one). Check the below link to see how to create a parameter transaction for sm30.

Change table entries in production

Is it possible to have authorizations so that specific users can change table entries through se16 in production even though the system is locked for changes?
Thanks,
- Prakash

You will need to create the Maintenance view for the table you want to maintain and then make a authorization group using se54 for this maintenace view. This authorization group needs to be defined in the role of the persons to whom you want to give acess. Now only these persons can maintain this table entries.

Deletion of table entries(without maintenance view) in production

Hi Sap All.
here i have got a task to change the data type of one particular field and to delete all the table entries of this table in production.
so in Dev I have tired with z program saved in local object (DELETE FROM Table).
i just want to know how i can delete all the entries of table in production.
regards.
Varma

Hello,
You can also use transaction SE14.
Start SE14
Enter the table name
Select the radio button "Delete data".
Push the button "Activate and adjust database".
This will drop your table in the DB and recreate it as well as all related indexes.
Indexes are not impacted when you do a regular DELETE statement unless you rebuild your indexes.
Of course you can only do this if data can be deleted for a specific table in ALL clients.

Change of business area in direct table entry

Hello All,
We are trying to change the business area in table MSEG by direct table entry through se16n.
But i am getting the error "GL account XXXXXXX not fouind in table SKA1."However when i check the table SKA1,entry XXXXXXX exists in table SKA1.The company has decided to change its policy and therefore they want to change the business area..Please tell me the procedure so that i can change the business area.
Thanks,
Saurabh Kumbhare

Hi Pravin,
First of all, do not change the values directly in tables.
You want to change Business Area in MSEG but at the time document entry there may be other tables where this entry might have gone. So you need to identify all the tables before you do the change. Hence it is better to consult FI/CO team to find the solution from funtional side.
However, still if you need to change the value then look for the GL A/C in table SKB1. Since SKB1 is company code dependent data you have to check if the said GL exists or not in company code contained in MSEG.

Firoz.

T158 - What's TCODE is used to maintain table T158

Hi Guru,
I'm looking for the TCODE or IMG paht that is used to maintain table T158?
T158 - Transaction Control: Inventory Management.
Now we're implementing but we don't use standard document type (BLART). We create a new document type such as "GR instead of WE", "GI instead of WA" and "GA instead of PR". Now we have a problem when we goods receipt, the system shown message about WE does not exist in T003 (check entry). I've debug it and seen table: T158 determine document type. So I've changed value in T158 directly as "MIGO_GR H GR GA WE". It's work!! we can post GR but I don't know the IMG path or TCode to maintain that table. Please kindly advice.
Thank you very much.

Transporting table entry with primary key 120 char

Hi all,
I have 2 separate questions which I feel are closely related.
In the url:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21eb6e446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm
It says:....
If the key length is greater than 120, there are restrictions when transporting table entries. The key can only be specified up to a maximum of 120 places in a transport. If the key is larger than 120, table entries must be transported generically.
How do I transport the table entries "generically" for such a table?
To further illustrate my actual problem:
My problem in the real world lies with the MIMETYPES table, maintained in trx SMW0.
I select the mime types row by row and do a Table Entry > Transport Entries, but get an error that says
"Key entry for table MIMETYPES may only be generic".
As a result it fails to attach to my transport.
(Note: the primary key of MIMETYPES is 128 chars long)
The Diagnosis long text says "The key is longer than allowed by the Change and Transport System (120 characters)."
The Procedure says:
1. Make sure that you only specify the character fields before the
 first non-character key field. You must enter the key with a generic
 ending. Enter the generic symbol directly after the specified part
 of the key.
2. You must enter the generic symbol at the latest in the 120th
 character of the key. 
What is this generic symbol that i need to insert at the 120th position??

Thanks Nick!
So the mysterious "generic character" is actually the asterisk (*). It works.
Strange tho as the error long text says to insert the "generic character" at the 120th character position of the key, but I found that altho I can save it, the transport still fails with the same error.
I tried placing the * right after the key value e.g.
KEY123*
and it worked.
Thanks again!

Changes on Pool table entries

Hi All,
I have made changes to one of the entry of the pool table-T180U.
There was no request created in the Development server for the above changes.
How to transport the changes to the Production?
Can I directly make the same changes for the pool table-T180U in Productrion?
Thanks in advance.
Kal Chand

Hi,
Thanks for your quick response.
As you told, I am not seen the "Transport Entries" option in SE11, or SE16 to the table entries in my Development server.
Note: I have checked my sandbox server, It's there.
Thanks,
Kal Chand

Query Creation directly in Production

RSA1-->Transport Connection
Choose the 'Bex Changeability' icon at the top right screen; in the popup set 'Everything changeable' for query elements.

storage bins are master data and not customizing, hence they are created in production system directly.
if you create them in development system, then you do not get any transport request.
(but it is possible to create a transport request manually and add the LAGP table entries to it)
but usually bins do not have individual names, a warehouse has a certain structure, and bins get identified by coordinates.
you can customize a schema for the naming and generate the bins.
this schema can be transported.
And then you just execute LS05 to generate the bins
