Hi ,

1. Create a domain

2. Create a data element using the domain from step 1.

3. Create a value table with key fields CLIENT

and say (any other field ) VALUE (using the data element from step 2) value table is say ZVALTAB

4. Activate all

5. Assign value table to domain from step 1.

6. Add field ZZ_VALTAB to include CI_RPM_ITEM_ATT and assign

value help to this (SE11 -> tab Fields -> Foreign Key Icon)

eg.

Check table ChkTablFld For.key table Foreign Key Field

ZVALTAB CLIENT SYST MANDT

ZVALTAB VALUE /RPM/ITEM_D ZZ_VALTAB

)

save and activate all

7. populate the value table

8. check the customizing via

SPRO

SAP xApp Resource and Portfolio Management

>Global Customizing

>Global Field Settings

>Define Custom Field Configuration

=> RIH: add field ZZ_VALTAB with service 000000000000009 on Field Configuration.

In addition add also field ZZ_VALTAB on UI Configuration

9. Add the field in customizing activity Assign Field to Tab Pages.

Thereafter the values are shown on the drop down box.

Aravinda,

Does this applies to Project Managements too?

Because I did everything you've written, but in my case dropdown list doesn't have any values in it.

Domain with fixed values works fine, but we need to allow user to maintain this list of values.

Hi,

check the follwing steps to add new field at item level;

Goto SAP xRPM -> Global customizing -> Global field settings -> Check Object types and Supported structres, here see the object required object type. We can insert additional fields in those objects against which u201CCustomer fieldsu201D is mentioned in Struct typ column. I suppose this is useful for u /RPM/TS_ITEM_D_DATA_CUST, goto SE11 transaction and add the custom field in structure. then goto IMG ->SAP xRPM ->Global Customizing ->Global Field Settings ->Define Custom field configuration wherein choose object type as RIH, choose field config and search object type for your custome filed. Goto UI config and select true or false as per your requirement. Now restart the portal and you will get customised filed on portal at item level.
