Data entered in the custom field in the SRM portal not getting saved..

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have added a custom field in Contract Screen of the SRM portal by adding the field as an append structutre in structure INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF_CTR.

The custom field now appears in the header (basic data ) of the 'Process contract' screen.

NOw It allows me to enter data in the custom field .

The problem is ..

When I 'CHECK' or "RELEASE' the contract, the value entered in the custom field disappears..

How do i capture the data entered in the custom field ...please HElp!!!

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Vidya,

I tried adding a field in the Contract header field by adding it to the follwoing structures:

INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF_CTR & INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF.

The field is showing properly and when i enter any value and pressing check or refresh button the value does not disappear.

Please see whether you have followed the steps given in the

OSS Note 672960 - User-defined fields 2

Also go through the blog to see exactly how you need to add the field to the structures:

/people/nanda.kondagunta/blog/2006/10/23/how-to-create-custom-fields-in-srm

If still the problem persist check you BAdI coding.

And the last option is to raise a message with SAP.

HI Pradeep,

the notes are already implemented

Can we do anything with BADI BBP_CUF_BADI_2. ?

Hi Vidya,

You can try to debug this thing. Try to keep a breakpoint in BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI and see what exactly is happening in the code.

Also please let us know the SRM version that you are working on.

Thanks,

Hi Pradeep,

Thanks for the reply!!

We have upgraded our SRM system from 3.0 to 5.5

I have added the custom field in structures INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF_CTR and

INCL_EEW_PD_HEADER_CSF as the field has to appear in the basic data tab of 'Process Contract'.

Regarding debugging:

1. I tried to debug in BBP_DOC_CHECK_BADI by calling the FM BBP_PD_CTR_GETDETAIL. inside the badi and the parameter e_header of the function module contained the custom field but had no value...!!

2. I tried to debug the badi BBP_CUF_BADI_2 method MODIFY_INPUT..

The import variable iv_fieldname contains the field name amd the variable iv_value has the value entered in the custom field .........but another import structure ls_header also contains the custom field but no value....

Method MODIFY_INPUT has only one export parameter ev_value,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,!!!!!!!!!!!!
