APPEND Structures:

Append Structure is used to append to the Standard Tables.

The Same Append Structure cannot be appended in more then one Standard DB Table.

We need to create the Append Structure by opening the Table in Display mode and by clicking on the Append Structure button.

There are two options to add additional fields to std tables.

1. append structure -- where in u can insert a structure to table.

(start with .INCLUDE)

2. Custom includes --- there are some includes in some tables provided by SAP for some special purpose where in u can add data

(start with CI_xxxxx)

all the added field in table will be shown in different colour than normal.

hope ur question is answered

Hi,

Appending a structure in a table is nothing but adding collection of fields to a particular field.

Example :

You have created a table with fields like Emp_Id,Emp_Name,Emp_Address.

Emp_Address field has Datatype :CHAR and Length :30 .

Now in this particular field, we can enter the address continually, suppose if u want to enter the City ,State, Country and Pincode seperately. Then we can go for Append Structure.

In Append Structure, We can create all the fields those mentioned above and append this structure to the field Emp_Address.

Once u creating the records, these fields will come automatically under the field Emp_Address.

Plz reward it .if it is useful...
