Hi All,

I have added a field to already existing Z table and I have regenrated the table maintainance generator for that.When I had a look in SM30 i could see a + symbol instead of the description of the filed added.

Could anybody help me in this regard.

Thanks & Regards,

if you want description there reduce the description and see

Hi Kishore,

Activate the table and regenerate the table maintenance generator.

Before that Goto UTILITIES->Database Utilities ->Click on Activate and adjust database button. Because each time you add new fields you need to adjust the table.

Then check out SM30. Hope this solves your problem.

When you define a table field with direct data types as you have done, the table maintenance generator uses '+' as the description. To put a meaningful description in, you have to go to the table maintenance generator, and, using Environment->Modification->Maintenance screens, go and manually edit the field description using the screen editor.

If you then regenerate the table maintenance, your description will disappear, and you'll have to remodify the screen.
