Hi Pratyusha,

Enhancement AIST0002 is Correct. I have given the detailed document for activating this exit.

You can use this enhancement to enter fields you define yourself in the

asset master record. Follow these steps:

1. Create structure CI_ANLU in the ABAP Dictionary, and define the

fields that you want to have in the asset master record in addition

to the standard fields. The master record data of these fields will

later be stored in the separate table ANLU.

2. Create include ZXAISU03 in function group XAIS. Enter program code

there in order to transfer the asset master data to global

variables. The asset master data referred to here is the data that

is transferred using function module EXIT_SAPLAIST_002, and which

you need later for checking the field contents of the fields that

you have defined. At the least, you should transfer the values

transferred in parameter I_ANLU to a global structure.

3. In function group XAIS, define one or more subscreens that you want

to integrate into the maintenance interface of the asset master

record. On these subscreens, you can either

a) Make the fields available to the global ANLU structure that you

defined in the previous step

b) Make any other fields available, from which you then derive

values for the ANLU fields.

4. Create include ZXAISU04 in function group XAIS. Enter code there in

order to assign the ANLU structure that was returned to asset master

data maintenance by parameter E_ANLU of function module

EXIT_SAPLAIST_003.

5. Create a customer enhancement project, which is related to SAP

enhancement AIST0002, and activate this project (transaction CMOD).

6. Define master data tab layouts that use the subscreens (group boxes)

you have defined. Assign asset classes to these tab layouts.

Once you define your own user-defined fields, you can include them in

Asset Accounting reporting. You can use your user-defined fields when

defining sort versions. They are also available when you use dynamic

selection for selecting assets. To be able to use your user-defined fields in this way, you only have to create your own selection view for

the logical database ADA and assign the user-defined fields to a

functional group (for example, functional group 10 for general data).

If you want your user-defined fields to be displayed in reports, in

addition to being used for sorting and selection, you have to create

your own report or your own query. The system makes the user-defined

fields available at the time of GET ANLAV via logical database ADA in

the ANLAV structure. Therefore you do not need to program your own data

retrieval program.

Limitations

o It is not possible to enter default values in the asset class for

user-defined fields.

o User-defined fields are not integrated in the screen layout control

of Asset Accounting. However, you can program your own field control

that is dependent on the asset class and/or company code (in the

EXIT_SAPLAIST_002 function module). This field control can also

distinguish between main number and subnumber master records.

When you create

- An asset using a reference

- A subnumber

- A target asset for an intercompany transfer

then the system transfers the user-defined fields from the

- Reference asset

- Main asset number

- Sending asset

In function module EXIT_SAPLAIST_002, you can completely or

partially delete or change the transferred values.

o User-defined fields cannot be substituted or validated.

Hope this will help u. If u have any queries ping me.

With Wishes

Jai
