1. Go to WE31

The field lengths (in bytes) and any fixed values are derived from the data elements using the domains (with field lengths as export lengths). The documentation for the data element is also copied and displayed by the documentation tools.

4.Choose Goto ® Documentation and describe the segment type. Save the active version of your application documentation and return to the segment editor.

If you use the segment later in an IDoc type and display this type using the documentation tools, the description you have entered here will be displayed.

5.Save the segment definition by selecting This graphic is explained in the accompanying text. Enter the segment in a transport request.

Note

You should assign all your development objects (segments, IDoc type, function group, and so on) for IDoc types to the same package, so that the transport properties are identical.

The segment definition you have created appears with the version number 000 in the segment editor. It is also included in the transport request you created.
