Hi,
I have a ztable. This is also maintained using sm30. Now I have modified the table to add some new fields. In sm30 I want to maintain values for this new fields. The condition is I don't want to lose the values that were prevously maintained for the other fields. Is there anyway this can be achieved.
Regards,
Varun.

While in table maintenance generator during modification, tick on the screens so that they are deleted and regenerated again otherwise changes will not get reflected in your screen of table maintenance.

hi Varun,
Go to <b>SE14</b> give the object name and press edit button in that press button activate & adjust database without deleting existing entries.
and go to se11 and enter the Ztable name and then follow this path <b>UTILITIES->TABLE MAINTAINENCE GENEATOR</b>. Delete the existing view and create a newer one.
<b>Note:</b>Donot worry about losing the data in this process your data will not be deleted

You want to add the fields so that you can maintain them in SM30 right? Well, we have to regenerate the table maintenance program. First go to SE11, enter your table name, click change. Click Utitlies, Table Maintenance Generator. Click the change button. You will get a dialog asking what kind of changes are needed, select the checkbox for "New Field". Click green check. System will regenreate the table maintenance. Now when you go to SM30, your new fields should be there.

Do you activation in se14 transaction.
Chose the radio-button for Save data and click on the button Adjust and activate database.
Then regenerate your table maintenance.
