Screens and Userexits

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I am having a standard transaction with a header details and Item details screen. Now I want to add some fields to the header and item details screens.

How to figure out which screen and userexit to use for this purpose. Is there any standard way of figuring them out.

Please suggest and let me know if anyone needs more info.

Thanks,

Saquib,

Thanks. They are helpful. I am having a question here.

I went to an enhancement using SMOD and there is a function exit under that enhancement.

There is an area called 'Screen area' which is populated with the module pool program name and the screen number.

What is the purpose of those fields. Is that the screen where I have to add my custom fields. I am not able to open the module pool program.

Can someone throw some light on that. I am new to userexits.

Thanks,

For example ME21N transaction there is screen exit exist AMPL0001.

If you display this screen exit in smod,

Calling screen No. Area Called screen No. Short Text

SAPLMBAM 0120 USER0001 SAPLXAMP 1000 Subscreen

You can see following lines in PAI(0120) program SAPLMBAM ie., calling screen.

CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN USER0001.

If you want to include subscreen, You have create screen 1000 attached with the

program SAPLXAMP which does not exist until create this screen.

Under the same exit u can see some function module exists which will help to populate

the data the sub screen added.

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Hi Naren,

Here are some information regarding screen exits, menu exits, user exits and field exits.

<b>SCREEN EXITS</b>

Screen exits are exits that allow you to use a reserved part of the screen (A subscreen) to display or input data.

It is determined be SAP where the sub screen will be displayed.

The syntax is: CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN

The screen exit is not processed untill the corresponding subscreen has been created in an enhancement project, and the project has been activated.

Note:

Function codes are only processed in the main screens flow logic

You are not allowed to enter a name for the subscreens command field

You are not allowed to define GUI stauses

You are not allowed to enter a value for Next screen

The global data of the program is not available for the subscreen. Data for the subscreen is provided by function modules. These function modules belongs to the same function group as the subscreen

Subscreens are edited with transaction CMOD. When you activate a project containg subscreens, the calling screen is regenerated and the subscreen is displayed next time you display the calling screen

The developer must create the subscreen and the corresponding PBO and PAI modules

How to identify screen exits

Look after CALL CUSTOMER-SUBSCREEN in the screenprogram of the screen you want to modify.

Use transaction CMOD menu Utillities -> SAP enhancements to search for screen exits

<b>MENU EXITS</b>

Menu exits allow you to add your own functionallity to menus. Menu exits are implemented by SAP, and are reserved menu entries in the GUI interface. The developer can add his/her own text and logic for the menu.

Function codes for menu exits all start with "+"

Example

We want to create a new menu item in the Office menu. The text for the menu should be "Run ZTEST", and the menu will

run report ZTEST.

Goto transaction SE43 Area Menu Maintenance

In Area Menu Paramenter type 'S000' (S triple Zero)

Select Change and ignore all the warning screens

Expand the office menu. In the buttom of the office tree you will find a menu named "Customer function"

Double click on the text. In the pop-up screen change the text to "Run ZTEST". Note that the trsnaction code is +C01

Goto transaction SE93 and create transaction +C01 that calls report ZTEST.

Now you will se the menu displayed in the office tree. If you delete transaction +C01 again, the new menu will dissapear.

<b>USER EXITS</b>

User exits (Function module exits) are exits developed by SAP. The exit is implementerd as a call to a functionmodule. The code for the function module is writeen by the developer. You are not writing the code directly in the function module, but in the include that is implemented in the function module.

The naming standard of function modules for functionmodule exits is: EXIT_<program name><3 digit suffix>

The call to a functionmodule exit is implemented as: CALL CUSTOMER.-FUNCTION ❤️ digit suffix>

Example:

The program for transaction VA01 Create salesorder is SAPMV45A

If you search for CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION i program SAPMV45A you will find ( Among other user exits):

CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '003'

exporting

xvbak = vbak

xvbuk = vbuk

xkomk = tkomk

importing

lvf_subrc = lvf_subrc

tables

xvbfa = xvbfa

xvbap = xvbap

xvbup = xvbup.

The exit calls function module EXIT_SAPMV45A_003

<b>FIELD EXITS</b>

Field exits allow you to create your own programming logic for any data element in the Dictionary. You can use this logic to carry out checks, conversions, or business-related processing for any screen field. Example: The data element BBBNR identifies a company’s international location number. You might want to set up your R/3 System so that all international location numbers are larger than 100.

The field exit concept lets you create a special function module that contains this logic.

You assign the special function module to the data element BBBNR. You then assign the module to any programs and screens in which users can add new international location numbers. When you activate your field exit, the system automatically triggers your special routine whenever a user enters a company location number.

2. How to find user exits

Display the program where you are searching for and exit and search for CALL CUSTOMER-EXIT

If you know the Exit name, go to transaction CMOD. Choose menu Utillities->SAP Enhancements. Enter the exit name and press enter.

You will now come to a screen that shows the function module exits for the exit.

3. Using Project management of SAP Enhancements

We want to create a project to enahance trasnaction VA01

Go to transaction CMOD

Create a project called ZVA01

Choose the Enhancement assign radio button and press the Change button

In the first column enter V45A0002 Predefine sold-to party in sales document . Note that an enhancement can only be used i 1 project. If the enhancement is allready in use, and error message will be displayed

Press Save

Press Components. You can now see that enhancement uses user exit EXIT_SAPMV45A_002. Double click on the exit.

Now the function module is displayed. Double click on include ZXVVAU04 in the function module

Insert the following code into the include: E_KUNNR = '2155'.

Activate the include program. Go back to CMOD and activate the project.

Goto transaction VA01 and craete a salesorder. Note that Sold-to-party now automatically is "2155"

Hello all,

Thanks for the replies. They are really helpful.

In my case...I have the following

Calling screen No. Area Called screen No. Short Text

SAPLMBAM 0120 USER0001 SAPLXAMP 0000 Subscreen

I want to add some fields on the subscreen. I had double clicked on the calling screen SAPLMBAM and it prompted me to enter a screen number for creation. I entered 1000 and added some fields on the subscreen.

Next I had activated the screen, the flowlogic and then the project. But the screen number in the above case has not changed to 1000...it is still showing 0000 in my case.

Any I cannot see the added fields also in the subscreen. Am I missing something here. Please suggest.

Thanks,

[Former Member]

When you are implementing the exit in a project(CMOD).

You can insert the screen number created by you.

Thanks,
