Change feature to no default

[Former Member]

Hi all

I have been asked to change a feature from having a default value to not having one. I am not allowed to delete the feature so my question is (and it might be simple to you guys) what is the coding for no value at all? In my feature the possible values are 1,2 and blank. Blank is not the right choice. It should really be no value at all.

Right now there is one record with the operation: &DKDAV=1,

It is this operation I want to make me give no value.

How to do this?

Hi

If you maintain the return value as Blank that means that the value is zero. it will not default anything.

Ravee, when I set my operation to &DKDAV=, it choses the blank value- not no value if that was what you meant?

This is not the solution

If you really do not want any return value in the feature all you have to do is go into the feature through tcode pe03, first delete the &DKDAV=1 and then click on the main feature name and straight away give the return value as blank. This means that the feature has no value.

I would like to ask as to which feature is this that you want to make it blank and where al does this &DKDAV=1 affect as if you delete this value, it may not default where it should and may create some problems...

Another way is click the on the "otherwise" and give it as blank.

Cool Chilli, I cannot delete the &DKDAV=1, part from the operation because I get an error message "Assignment missing for key SPACE in"

It is the only line in the feature and the feature is called DKDAV (some danish specific feature for infotype 766).

surisetti, it is not a question of rights to change the feature. I do have the rights but it is the mechanics of the feature I am missing out on

Hi Jesper

try the following (just to please my curiousity whether it matters).

Switch to graphic display of the feature.

Select the item 'DKDAV' and then try to delete the feature.

BTW Are you Jesper who also used to visit SAPFans.com??

Hi Wilfred. I am not supposed to delete the feature but only make it do nothing. Deleting it may give me some issues.

And yes, I used to visit sapfans.com

Hi,

Deleting it may give me some issues.

Do you really mean may or is is that it will give issues.

If it's the first thing, I'ld advice deleting it and make sure whether it makes a difference or not.

If otherwise, I think you're in bad luck since the "blank"return value which I normally use (and which you have tried) to have no return value, is actually a value which is accepted in the IT.

Hi

That is only a warning which comes up. You can delete the feature.

Or do you know where else did u use this feature check that place for any implecations after deletion.

The feature is supplied from our payroll system vendor and they have asked me not to delete the feature as the system expects its presence.

But if "no value" is not an option in a feature you are right - I am in bad luck then.
