Use

This activity and the subsequent ones covers adding customer-specific fields for Case objects (related to assessments, test logs, issues, and remediation plans) as well as adding customer-specific fields for other non-HR objects (Questions, Surveys, Rules, etc.).

This example describes how to add a customer-defined field to a case object. These procedures apply to other objects also. The example shows how to add two fields to the case object: one field contains the calendar date; the other contains a value chosen from a fixed set of options.

Requirements

  • You must have the S_DEVELOP authorization profile or the equivalent.
  • You must test all changes in the development system before transporting them to the test and production systems.

Activities

Overview

  1. Creating data elements and storage for new fields in the ABAP dictionary
  2. Displaying/editing new fields in the Web UI. Custom fields are displayed on the UI automatically. There is an optional BAdI implementation to change the look of the fields or to default a value etc.
  3. Updating the reporting infrastructure to see the new fields in reporting

    Note: The changes do not cause conflicts with upgrades since they are not considered as modifications of the delivered SAP standard.
