update VBAP fields

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We are developing one custom program for creating the inquiry, my requirement is to update two extra values (field type is Quantity) (SOH, Safety Stock) for each line item in VBAP table, and we have to use these two values while Creating the custom sales order.

I need, which existing fields in VBAP can be used to update the two extra values, instead of adding new fields to VBAP.

Regards,

Hi,

As already said,

in Table:VBAP- every field has its own specification. But would suggest you 2 fields, but there wont be support from the system & if you confirm that you are not using the respective fields functionality then only you can touch these fields in your development.

i.e.

in Sales order - item level-

Purchase data tab,

you will "Your reference" fields under SOld to party / Ship to party.

As i already said, if you are not using this functionality, then only you can use these 2 fields for your purpose & maintain the validations according to your requirement.

This is just a work around, w/o creation any Zfields,but SAP doesnt recommend the same & again it all depends on client.

Hi Nagesh,

As you are developing a custom program, why dont you create a Z table instaed of touching VBAP table.

Please note VBAP is standard table and touching this will have unwanted consequences as this is very important table.

Create a z table and work accordingly..
