User Defined Fields and Reference Fields on the B/S

Dear Experts,
   On the balance sheet in SAP 9.0/8.82 once you click on the expanded button, there are user defined fields and reference fields which are blank. Could someone assist on how to use them ?
Kind Regards

Hi Martin,
If you add any user defined fields (UDF) in Journal Entry (JE) screen, You can use the udf's in the
balance sheet report.

  • Validating User Defined Fields on the OIM User Object

    Hello everyone,
    I'm currently using the OIM 11g, and am curious how to provide data validation for user defined fields.
    We currently have two user-defined fields for day of birth and month of birth, which have been set to required, but I would like to take this a step further and actually validate that the data being entered is numerical (two characters max), and if it's not, a red box appears around the field notifying the admin that the entry needs to fit the expected criteria.
    One example already in OIM is that of the email field. It appears to be using a regex to identify that data entered is of a certain format.
    Can anyone here point me in the direction of some proper documentation so that I may learn how to incorporate this into my environment? Thanks!

    Hi Kate,
    The only way to do it, is with Form Settings. Do not give them authorisations on Form Settings. You can then untick the "Active" tick box on certain fields and tick it on others. This can then be done, when you log on as the user him/herself.

  • User-Defined Fields and Form Settings

    I have a User-Defined Field in the table "OCLG" and I'd like to show it in the "Activities Overview for Business Partner - xxx" window.
    Is possibile to do that by the "Form Settings" window? Here I don't find U-D Fields. Is there a way to show them?
    Or is there an other solution?

    Hi,
    This report is hardcoded. You need to create your own report for it. Better by Crystal Report.

  • DI Server and User Defined Fields

    Hello experts,
    When I add user defined fields to an object, am I able to update those user defined fields using the UpdateObject command on the DI Server? I have looked for answers on this subject, but I only got answers from 2006 saying that it wasn't possible. Has this been resolved yet?
    I couldn't find any documents with best practices on this subject. Are any documents available?
    Thanks for your time!
    Vincent

    Vincent,
    Per the SDK Help Center Documentation for the 2007A SDK and DI Server, the documentation states...
    "After adding new user fields to the database (either through the application or the DI API), it is required to stop and start the DI service, so that  the object schema will be updated and the DI Server would identify those changes."
    Have you done this?

  • Add User Defined Field (Landed Costs Window)

    Hello All!
    Somebody can help us on this, we wonder if someone can tell us how can we add a user defined field in the Landed Costs Windows -> Fixed Costs TAB place.
    We were unable to add this field, and now we're thinking that's impossible through the USER DEFINE FIELD function, there's not reference about Fixed Costs TAB in this tool, but if someone knows the 'how to', please help us.
    thanks in advance
    jssanche

    Hi Sanchez,
    I am afraid you could not do that. User defined field is not be added into landed cost. Landed cost seems like process external bank statement. I have ever asked to SAP support about this (how to add UDF in process external bank statement) and they said it could be done using add-on. You have developed add-on to do that (DI/UI or UI API only).

  • User-defined field in existing table

    Hello,
    I would like to know if it is possible to add a user-defined field in an existing table.
    Actually, I would like to add a combobox with other types of partners than vendors, customers and leads and add a user-defined field in the OCRD table.
    Thank you
    Regards,
    Thibault

    Hello,
    Your answers help me a lot !
    My code is working, i.e. when I create a new BP and choose another type in my comboBox, the information is saved.
    When I search a BP who has this type, SAP find the good BP.
    But, I don't see where the data is stored, I don't see anything which make the difference between 2 BP with 2 different types in the OCRD table.
    So, where SAP can make the difference?

  • Use of user define field in Task list

    Hi,
    Please give the solution for the strange requirement of the client as:
    My client wants to define the operation for preventive maintenace in two parts like
    check temperature  :  45 deg celcius.
    check temperature should be like operation and rest what he has to check to be defined in other field  i.e. both should not be together.
    so i find the solution as user defined fields in the task list where i can define this second parameter.
    But the problem is that system is not proposing this second field in the preventive order, only operation field is proposed.
    Please suggest some solution, how can this requirement can be mapped.

    Both operations of the inspection lot will need to be completed at some point.  They are in the same lot so they belong together.  Both operations should be available to the user.  (Unless you used workcenters and security to limit users to specific workcenters).
    Once set up, it will only be available to new inspection lots.  Few things in SAP are retroactive.

  • AIST0002-User Exit - Validation of user defined field

    I have implemented the enhancement aist0002.  I added a user defined field in a user defined subcreen and added it to the leasing tabstrip.  I would like to validate this field against a another field in sap's leasing subscreen.  In the pai of the user defined subsrceen the field of the other subscreen does not get filled.  Is there a way to access the field of the other subscreen on the leasing tabstrip from the pai module of the user defined subscreen?
    Thank you
    Tom

    Thank you for your response but I am not sure where the import occurs?
    This is the pai of the user subscreen 9000 for AS01.
    form edit_input .
      data: itab type lfza.
      if anlu-zzempfk is not initial.
        select * from lfza into itab
                where empfk = anlu-zzempfk and
                      lifnr = anla-leafi.
        endselect.
        if sy-subrc <> 0.
          set cursor field 'ANLU-ZZEMPFK'.
          message e007(zvalid).
        endif.
      endif.
    endform.                
    Function exit EXIT_SAPLAIST_002 include zxaisu03   
    looks like this:
    anlu = i_anlu.
    anla = i_anla.
    Data gets moved to anlu or anla if it was already built.  They are empty when it is a create transaction(as01).
    Function exit exit_saplaist_003. include zxaisu04
    looks like this:
      e_anlu = anlu.
    After the subscreen is processed it exports the data to global variable.
    The problem is the pai module for the user subscreen 9000, the  field anla-leafi is not filled.  This field is  located in sap's subsceen 1403.  It has data in the screen field.  My assumption is that it would be accessible as global data that could be used by my user defined subscreen once I began the validation in the pai of subscreen 9000.
    Could you provide more insight on how I would access the field from the other subscreen?

  • Creating a user-defined field in VL06

    Dear all ,
    Please guide me how to add few user defined fields in the output list of standard VL06 transaction code - (Delivery Monitor Report - WS_DELIVERY_MONITOR) - I have to add in the option of 'List Outbound deliveries' -
    Pls revert.
    Thanks in Advance.
    P.G.R

    Hai
    Follow the bellow steps for creating User Defined Field Exit
    Step by step procedure for creating Field Exits
    There are eight steps to creating a field exit:
    Step 1: Determine Data Element
    Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
    Step 3: Create Field Exit
    Step 4: Create Function Module
    Step 5: Code Function Module
    Step 6: Activate Function Module
    Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
    Step 8: Activate Field Exit
    Step 1: Determine Data Element
    - Before you can begin adding the functionality for a field exit, you must know the corresponding data element.
    - An easy way to determine the data element associated to a particular screen field is to:
    Go the appropriate screen.
    Position the cursor in the appropriate field.
    Press ‘F1’ for field-level help.
    Click on the ‘Technical info’ pushbutton (or press ‘F9’) on the help dialog box.
    On this Technical Information dialog box, the data element will be specified if the field is 'painted' from the ABAP/4 Dictionary.
    Step 2: Go To Field Exit Transaction
    - The transaction to create field exits is CMOD.
    - You can use the menu path Tools -> ABAP/4 Workbench -> Utilities -> Enhancements -> Project management.
    - From the initial screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Text enhancements -> Field exits menu path.
    - After choosing this menu path, you will be taken to the field exits screen. From here, you can create a field exit.
    NOTE : Even though you use transaction CMOD to maintain field exits, you do not need to create a project to activate field exits.
    Step 3: Create Field Exit
    - From the field exit screen of transaction CMOD, choose the Field exit -> Create menu path.
    - After choosing this menu path, a dialog box will prompt you for the appropriate data element .
    - Enter the data element name and click the ‘Continue’ pushbutton.
    - Now, you will be able to create the function module associated to the data element’s field exit.
    Step 4: Create Function Module
    - You will automatically be taken to the Function Library (SE37) after entering a data element name and clicking the ‘Continue’ pushbutton.
    - In the ‘Function module’ field, a function module name will be defaulted by the system based on the data element specified. This name will have the following convention:
    FIELD_EXIT_<data element>
    - You can add an identifier (an underscore followed by a single character ).
    - The first function module for a data element’s field exit must be created without an identifier.
    - To create the function module, click on the ‘Create’ pushbutton, choose menu path Function module -> Create, or press ‘F5’.
    - After choosing to create the function module, you will get the warning: "Function module name is reserved for SAP". This message is just a warning so a developer does not accidentally create a function module in the field exit name range. By pressing ‘Enter’, you will be able to go ahead and create the function module.
    - Before coding the function module, you will have to specify the function modules attributes -- function group, application, and short text.
    Step 5: Code Function Module
    - From the function module’s attributes screen, click on the ‘Source code’ pushbutton or choose the Goto -> Function module menu path to the code of the function module.
    - Here you will add your desired functionality for the field exit.
    - Remember that field exit’s function module will have two parameters -- one importing parameter called "INPUT" and one exporting parameter called "OUTPUT". These parameters will be set up automatically by the system.
    - You must remember to assign a value to the OUTPUT field. Even if the value does not change, it must be moved from the INPUT field to the OUTPUT field.
    Step 6: Activate Function Module
    - After coding the function module, you must remember to activate it.
    - Use the Function module -> Activate menu path to activate the function module.
    - At this point, you can return to the field exit transaction.
    - You should be able to 'green arrow' back to this transaction.
    - When you return to the field exit transaction, you will see an entry for the newly created field exit.
    - At this point, the field exit is global. That is, it applies to all screens that use a particular data element. On any screen that uses the data element, the corresponding field exit function module will be triggered, once it is active.
    - Also, the field exit will not be triggered yet because it is inactive.
    Step 7: Assign Program/Screen
    - This step is only needed if you want to make a field exit local.
    - To make a field exit local, select the field exit and click on the ‘Assign prog./screen’ pushbutton.
    - In the dialog box , indicate the appropriate program name and screen number.
    This information indicates that the field exit is local to the specified screen in the specified program.
    - In the dialog box, you determine which function module gets executed for the field exit by specifying the identifier in the ‘Fld. Exit’ field.
    - If this field is left blank, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>'.
    - If a single-character identifier is entered into the field, the function module triggered will be 'FIELD_EXIT_<data element>_<identifier>'.
    Step 8: Activate Field Exit
    - The field exit must be active for it to be triggered by the system.
    - Activate the field exit by choosing the Field exit -> Activate menu path.
    - After assigning the field exit to a change request, its status will change to ‘Active’ and it will be triggered automatically on the appropriate screen(s).
    NOTE : In order to activate the field exit the profile parameter abap/fieldexit = YES must be set on all application servers

  • Update user defined fields in MARA using bapi_material_savedata

    Hi,
    I have this problem:
    I am creating materials from a Z table filled by another application (not SAP). I am using the bapi "bapi_material_savedata" to create the materials and it is working fine. But now I need to fill user defined fields in the MARA table from this Z table, and this fields, are not filled after using the bapi.
    I am using the bapi tables "extensionin" and "extensioninx".
    I have modified the BAPI_TE_MARA structure adding the ZZ fields of the MARA and the BAPI_TE_MARAX structure with the same fields but different data elements. So I have this structures/tables:
    BAPI_TE_MARA:
       MATERIAL - MATNR
       ZZDIM1   - ZZCHDIM1
       ZZDIM2   - ZZCHDIM2
       ZZDIM3   - ZZCHDIM3
    BAPI_TE_MARAX:
       MATERIAL - MATNR
       ZZDIM1   - BAPIUPDATE
       ZZDIM2   - BAPIUPDATE
       ZZDIM3   - BAPIUPDATE
    MARA:
    ..(standard fields of the MARA)....
       ZZDIM1   - ZZCHDIM1
       ZZDIM2   - ZZCHDIM2
       ZZDIM3   - ZZCHDIM3
    Here is the code that i'm using to update the extensionin and extensioninx tables:
    DATA x_bapi_te_mara TYPE bapi_te_mara.
      DATA x_bapi_te_marax TYPE bapi_te_marax.
      it_extensionin-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARA'.
      it_extensioninx-structure = 'BAPI_TE_MARAX'.
    * the internal table it_material contains the data of the
    * ZZ fields
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING it_material TO x_bapi_te_mara.
      x_bapi_te_mara-material = it_material-matnr.
      x_bapi_te_marax-material = it_material-matnr.
      x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim1 = 'X'.
      x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim2 = 'X'.
      x_bapi_te_marax-zzdim3 = 'X'.
      it_extensionin-valuepart1 = x_bapi_te_mara.
      APPEND it_extensionin.
      it_extensioninx-valuepart1 = x_bapi_te_marax.
      APPEND it_extensioninx.
    Also i have an entry in the table T130F that i'm not sure i need.
    Please help me to fill this user defined fields !!
    Regards,
    Jesus

    I'm using both,
    x_bapi_te_mara-material = it_material-matnr.
    x_bapi_te_marax-material = it_material-matnr.
    The first line is from the x_bapi_te_mara structure and the second for the x_bapi_te_maraX.

  • User defined fields via DI-API

    I want to read user defined fields using the DI-API.
    The following code works but lists only UDFs defined for articles:
    SAPbobsCOM.Items item =
    (SAPbobsCOM.Items) GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oItems);     
    int count = item.UserFields.Fields.Count;
    MessageBox.Show("count == "+anzahl.ToString(), "OK");
    for(int i=0; i<count; i++){
      MessageBox.Show("index == "+i.ToString(), "OK");
      MessageBox.Show("name == "+item.UserFields.Fields.Item(i).Name, "OK");
    If I try to list all UDFs defined in the system using the oUserFields object I get an exception when I assign the business object:
    try{
      SAPbobsCOM.UserFields ufd = (SAPbobsCOM.UserFields)
      GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oUserFields); // exception
      int count = ufd.Fields.Count;
    catch(System.Exception ex){
      MessageBox.Show("ex.ToString(), "OK");
    The exception says something like

    interface type SAPbobsCOM.UserFields
    Thank you for help,

    Hi Vítor,
    thank you for the hint to UserFieldsMD - now the access works.
    You wanted to know what I am trying to do - let me explain the background even it is a bit complicated:
    I have to access a certain UDF defined for articles.
    To access this UDF I can't use a fixed index like e.g. '5' in
    item.UserFields.Fields.Item(5).Value
    because this index is 5 only on my local machine - it could be a different index on the target machine.
    I solved this in writing some sql-code to access table CUFD and to find the index of this UDF in CUFD.FieldID.
    But sometimes there is a problem when there are UDFs deleted from the database. It is possible that there are 'holes' between the FieldId of UDFs of one object, e.g.
    Initial entries in CUFD (Table, FieldId, Name  => code to access field):
    OITM 0 'myUDF1'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(0).Value
    OITM 1 'myUDF2'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(1).Value
    OITM 2 'myUDF3'   ==> item.UserFields.Fields.Item(2).Value
    After deletion of 'myUDF2':
    OITM 0 'myUDF1'
    OITM 2 'myUDF3'
    Now the access to 'myUDF2' with item.UserFields.Fields.Item(2).Value fails!
    You have to use index '1' in .Item(index) to access 'myUDF2' because this UDF is now the second UDF in the item object (zero based).
    After I realized this I didn't use the sql-code to get FieldID any longer and searched with a loop all existing indices and compared them with the name of my special UDF, e.g. (this code works as expected):
    public int getUDFIndex(string udfName){
      index = -1;
      for(int i=0; i<item.UserFields.Fields.Count; i++{
        if(item.UserFields.Fields.Item(i).Name == udfName){
          index = i;
          break;
      return index;
    Now I tried to make this method more general to find UDFs in any object - not only in item objects.
    This is the background I wanted to access SAPbobsCOM.UserFields for.
    The problem is that UserFieldsMD has no method like Item(index) as I used it in my example.
    Do you have an idea to solve the problem with the 'holes' between FieldId in the UFD-table CUFD?
    Frank Romeni
