Hi,

In order to enhance, you need to delete the standard ui and add the custom ui with same properties. check this article for reference: [Enhancing UI in WDA|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/700317da-bd79-2c10-368e-8f18bf5d8b81?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true]

Hope this helps u.,

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Kiran,

I don't want to enhance my standard UI elements.I need to add my new custom fields(similar to Price/Currency) fields to the layout

Hi,

You mention that you are enhancing web dynpro component..!! Ok it is due to layout problem i think. Check the layout to which you added custom fields, like transparent container or group. Check the layout if it is matrix or flow layout. and change your UI accordingly.

If this doesnt solve, You need to delete the standard as mentioned in the link of first post, and recreate all ui elementa along with your custom elements.

Hope this helps u.,

Hi Kiran

Thanks for your reply.My requirement is to add the custom fields similar to the Price/Curreny field in the Currency,values and Pricing section of Item basic data in Shopping cart.Whenever I try to add an ui element(say a label with ui element of matrix head data) to the RIGHT_CONTAINER in the layout page,all the elements in the container are getting changed.Is deleting the RIGHT containe and creating again is the only solution because it is quite a tough job to recreate again(with so many fields and ofcourse I should be careful).It is working fine in my sandpit system but not in my dev system(SRM version with latest patch ).This issue is really driving me crazy.Could you please help on this.

Thanks,
