[Former Member]

Hi All

I need to make changes in the user exit and there are many user-exits in the standard program here my question is how to find the correct user-exit which suits our requirement.

Thanks

Hi Srini,

Use the matchcode ( with key words) in SMOD, or search the forum for the useful abap z_find_userexit.

Hope this helps,

To find the exits we one simple process.

goto SMOD tcode Utilites->find and give the package and press F8.

Hi Sreenivas,

I think U r able to find user exits related to ur program.

If it is right try to find with description given to that exit.

Then u just write 'break-point' in expected exits and execute ur program.

Then u can easily find correct exit.

run this program by giving ur t code...and click the exit it will go to SMOD there u read the documentation of that exit..if ur requirement satisfies try to use that one..

well if you dont know the exits by name and what they are there for, then it´s quite a hard task.

i didnt yet encounter a better way, so i use following steps:

- Check the names of the user-exits and see if theres something that sounds like it could fit for my requirement.

if i found something, i go there with the debug mode, and check if all data i need is available at this point.

Then i check whether the data changes i do there take effect. Yeah i change values in the debugger and proceed.

if both questions can be answered positive, then i stop searching and implement my code.

if i didnt found any user-exit whichs name sounds promising, then i try the first, then the last, the second, the one before the last... and so on, until i found one where my data i need is there, and where the changes made take the wished effect.
