Update T024 table

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement where-in we need to save records into table T024 (Purchasing Groups). What we found out is that table T024 is a SAP standard customizing table. Our understanding is that direct update of SAP standard tables in not allowed and that SAP standard tables should be updated using SAP standard transactions. Transaction OME4 is used to update T024. Alternatively, we can also update via view V_024 using SM30. But when we save, it prompts for a Transport Request.

Is there a way to eliminate the prompt for Transport Request?

Are there other ways, thru (Function Module,BAPI, etc) to update T024.

Any input is very much appreciated.

Thank you.

It should have been a cross client table, which means its common for all client in that environment... you have to give a Tr. request... I am not sure if you can eliminate that popup easily.

It is possible when you change the settings in SCC4 Transaction.

Thank you

Hi Salawahan, <li> You can create entries in T024 table using Menu path : SE11-> enter T024->button DISPLAY->menu UTILITIES->Table Contents->Create entries. <li>If you enter entries from here, you are not asked to create transport request. But you have to enter record by record. <li> T024 is the master table. Normally when you enter data to master table, those data has to be transported to TST and PRD. That is why transport request is created. IF you do not want to transport to TST or PRD, just create transport and do not transport it. you can delete that transport later time. Thanks Venkat.O

Hi,

You can very well update T024 table via SE11 since SAP has already provided the 'Create' button, so that it wont ask for the transport request.

Hi All,

Thanks for all of your replies.

What if we would update table T024 via a custom program? A custom program will be created, user will input data then save it. In turn, the program would update table T024. Is there a function module, BAPI, etc for such? Or shall we create a BDC for doing SM30 when trying to update view V_024? We understand that It is prohibited to do a direct table update at SAP standard table.
