Customised transaction codes

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have seen that in projects, there are customised T codes for standard transaction. My questions are:

1) what is the need for the customised T code (z tcode), when standard is available in system.If the purpose is to modify screens, then one can use screen exits and run standard t codes only. Can somebody explain with a business scenario for SD module regarding the need for customised T codes?

2) Do customised tarnsactions are made to control authorisations . If yes, then why the need when the authorisation can be controlled in standard T codes ?

3) Is making a customised T code same as making an area menu ?

4) How the customised T code is made. What is the user exit availiable etc ? what functional specs do a functional consultant needs to give.

There are several potential benefits to creating customized SAP transaction codes (TCodes) in lieu of using the existing SAP TCodes:

1. Customized TCodes can be more user-friendly and easier to remember than the standard SAP TCodes, which can be long and complex.

2. Customized TCodes can provide a more streamlined and efficient workflow by allowing users to access the specific transactions they need more quickly and easily.

3. Customized TCodes can be tailored to meet the specific needs of an organization, which may not be addressed by the standard SAP TCodes.

4. Customized TCodes can help to improve data security by limiting access to only the transactions that are relevant to a particular user or group of users.

5. Customized TCodes can help to improve the overall user experience by providing a more intuitive and personalized interface.

what is the need for the customised T code (z tcode),

When the standard TCode does not address the requirement, we have to go for zee tcode

Do customised tarnsactions are made to control authorisations

Yes while creating any zee TCodes, most probably, you would be copying the standard program. So based on that object, authorization can be controlled

How the customised T code is made

With the help of ABAPer

What is the user exit availiable etc

Certain requirements cannot be addressed through standard copy controls. So in that case, you have to apply user exit. For example, in sale orders, let us assume, your requirement is schedule line cannot be pre dated by end user, you have to go for user exit.

thanks

Hi,

First and primary thing we should not make any changes to the standard ones.It is a good practice to go for a customized one.It is not only for the purpose of modifying the screen and fetching logic like many other details will be differed.For example,If you take the T.Code "VA05n" which is used to list all the orders.For this one suppose you need additional field in thereport which is "Service rendered date" should be displayed.In that case we will copy the standard one and add the necessary coding to display the desired field.They should start with the "Z" letter.

> Do customised tarnsactions are made to control authorisations . If yes, then why the need when the authorisation can be controlled in standard T codes ?

Yes,we can provide authorisation for the customized T.Codes.But these are created not only for this purpose.For standard ones also we can remove/give authorisation for any user-id.

Customised T.Codes will be created by using the T.Code "SE93".

Hi,

t-codes are customized as per requirement, there are lots of t-code that user can't remember,so for simplification u can make them as Z t-codes,

you can create it by SE93
