Dear All expert,

I found in a table's technical setting , there is a check box 'Maintain as transparent table'.

But when I create it , there is not this kind of check.

Would you please tell me how to get it and what kind of usage about this check box?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Edward,

To create the tbale,

1) Goto SE11 and give table name and "Create".

2) This takes you to the "Dictionary: Maintain Table" window, wherein you enter the short description for the table.

3) In the same window, you can see 3 tabstrips: Attributes, Fields and Currency/quant fields.

4) By default you will be in "Attribute" tab.If not so, goto "attribute" tab

5)This tab requires you to enter Delivery class and

this also shows the check box "Table Maintenance allowed"

If you select this checkbox, it indicates that the users can create a table maintenance generator, which helps you to enter values into the table using a custom transaction code or through SE30.

If this check box is not selected, users will not be able to enter values into the table through SE30.

For further info, click on the table maintenance generator and press F1; this will give you a detailed explanation on the topic.

Regards,

Shiny

Edward,

There need not be any check for creating a transperant table type.

All tables which are created by SE11 > Database table are transparent tables only.

Let me know in case you have any more queries.

Hi edward,,

While creting by default all tables are transparent through se11

se11 is used for

--> Used to create, change or display the table definition.

--> Not all tables will have the option to create /change/delete records in SE11.

--> Through SE11 you can see the definition of the table.

--> Se16 directly takes you to the content of the table.

Thanks,
