How to Search BADI / User Exits

[Former Member]

Hi,

Given a transaction what r the ways to find the applicable BADIs ?

Should we only search the get_instance method or there exists some better ways to search the BADI ?

Also given a transaction what r the ways to search for user-exits / customer exits ?

In this case also should we only search call customer-function ?

What r the standard ways to find user-exits/ customer exits and BADIs applicable ?

hi,

there is a program to search user-exits:

REPORT ZUSEREXITS .

• Finding the user-exits of a SAP transaction code

*

• Enter the transaction code in which you are looking for the user-exit

• and it will list you the list of user-exits in the transaction code.

• Also a drill down is possible which will help you to branch to SMOD.

This can not be a standard way of searching user exits.

Also this will not enlist the available BADI's for the transaction.

What is the technical way to search user exits / customer exits /BADIs ?

Hi Nitin

For what it's worth:

If you really need to search for a Badi (or other user exit) within a program, then maybe a technical approach is for you.

This seems that you have already made the design decision as to where the code should fit within the SAP application.

In SAP software, I think most would agree that there is normally more than one way to achieve what you want to do. I could certainly be wrong though.

Sometimes it may be better to approach from an application point of view and look from within the Implementation Guide. You can show BAdis as an additional information column in the IMG.

Alternatively you can simply search the definitions in SE18.

Or, if you drill down to the Package view in SE80 for the program you are looking at, you can browse the enhancements in that package.
