I really don't think there is any substitute for SE14, except se11 -> utilities -> Database Utility.

Hi,

There actually is a FM called DD_DATABASE_UTILITY, which implements the SE14 functionality. I suggest you test this out carefully because you'll have to figure out how to set the parameters. Debugging SE14 and/or looking at open conversion requests in table TBATG will help you with that.

Hi ,

GOTO TCODE SE11->ENTER TABLE NAME->UTILITIES->DATABASE UTILITY,

AND CLICK ON ADJUST DATA BASE TABLE AND ACTIVATE.

Hi,

That simply callse SE14. I thought the question was to have an FM that does what SE14 does - function DD_DATABASE_UTILITY will do the trick.
