Package for transporting the changes of a system generated struture

[Former Member]

Hello ABAP gurus,

Quick question. I want to change a standard system generated structure. While creating the transport, the system is not accepting the Package we generally use for regular transports. So, what type and how should a package needs be created for accepting these changes into a transport.

Thanks

You must be changing a standard structure in a an include provided by SAP, that would take any package, it doesnt need a std package.

I want to change the structure without any append structure strategies. Is this possible?

the system allows me to go into the change mode for teh structure. I am able to type in te new field and other component names. whne I activate it, ythe ystem prompts for a package name.My question is, whta should be this package name. I am not ab;e to give teh Z* names here.

Thanks

The SAP package that it was delivered in (from the attributes).

Well first things first

you should not change an SAP structure like that, even if it is somehow letting you go in the change mode, unless such an excercise is reccomended to you by SAP itself (like an OSS or something, in that case they would give you a package and you will have to register the object even if you are using snote since its a ddic object).

It will be helpfull if you can tell us what is your actual requirement, why do you wnat to change a std struct? it might induce severe inconsistencies throughout your system and in some cases voids the support warranty.

Never do that way, it may lead to so many discrepancies because the table might have used it in many places. Extend the table through proper way using include or append only.
