Hi,

You need to use the Append structure and for more info Refer to this link..[Append Structures|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cf/21eb61446011d189700000e8322d00/content.htm]

Hello,

It depends on what table will you append the new field....what table are you talking about?...

Also, some std tables have a CI_structure, wich can be used to add new fields...

Sometimes it could be possible....with out using keys, (with keys you can modify anything, just that SAP will not support it)

Check for instance table BKPF, there is not an structure starting with CI_*, but if you check table

PA0002, threre is a structure starting with CI_*, AND That one can be modified....

feel free to ask more if needed

bye..

hi Bahrgav,



it is possible to insert new field to the master tables ..

but we need to add new field to the append or include structure..

look for the include structure for the master table..> double click and add filed last and activate..
and same activate the master table..

automatically the field appears in the Master table

You cannot add NEW FIELDS to a SAP STANDARD TABLE unless it has an APPEND STRUCTURE ( CI_*).

If you have Object Key then you can modify the standard table with your new field (in case it does not have a CI_* append structure).

Hi,

but we need to add new field to the append or include structure..

Here if u want to add at the end then use append structures.But there can be only one append structure for a table at the same time n numebr of include structures.

So if it is to be added at the end use append structures.
