Hi,

go to transaction se84.

abap dictionary >fields>table fields-->short description (custoer comments)

this will give you a list of fields with the same description and the table where the field is existing.

try giving the description as ustomer comment and ontact note

please award points and close the thread if answered.

Go to se11 &#61664; select the Data type radio button &#61664; place your cursor in the text box and press F4 &#61664; choose search for data elements &#61664; enter your description short description box press enter &#61664; then double click on the data element &#61664; then click on where used list.

Then you will get in which table you are using the data element and field names.

Hi Kumar,

Go to ST05, Start the trace, run the report, stop the trace. View the trace to find what all tables are used in your standard program.

Reward if helpful.
