In this step, you define the field selection for goods movements initial and header screens.

Note that the field selection for the item screens depends on the movement type and is configured in separate steps (see Define screen layout).

Example

Using the general field selection, you can make the following settings:

  • you can define the delivery note and, if required, bill of lading fields as required fields if you work with evaluated receipt settlement (ERS)
  • you can insert the goods receipt/issue slip field if you work with goods receipt/issue slips (only in Italy)
  • you can switch off the print indicators completely or just for certain transactions if you do not print goods receipt/issue slips in Inventory Management

Requirements

Standard settings

In the Standard configuration all fields that can be configured are defined as optional entries, with the exception of the goods receipt/issue slip field.

The goods receipt/issue slip is only active for Italy and is therefore suppressed in the Standard configuration.

Recommendation

SAP recommends that you accept the settings defined in the standard system. In this case, no action is required on your part.

General notes on field selection

All screens for which you can make a field selection are arranged in a screen group

The following types of fields are defined:

  • Modifiable fields

    For the modifiable fields, you define how the individual fields are displayed on the screen by using indicators.

    You can choose from the following:

    • The field is ready for input (standard setting)
    • The field requires an input (required entry)
    • The field is only displayed
    • The field is suppressed
    • The field is highlighted

  • Influencing fields

    For the influencing fields, you use indicators to define how the modifiable field is displayed on the screen, depending on a value.
    For goods movements, you can only maintain the field selection depending on the transaction or transaction fields such as document type and transaction/event type. For example, you cannot define the field selection depending on the plant because the plant has not yet been entered when you access the transaction.

Activities

Maintain the indicators for the modifiable fields and the values for the influencing fields.

You can define the field selection in the following ways:

  • You can maintain the indicators for the modifiable fields independently of an influencing value:
    1. Maintain the indicators on the Modifiable Fields screen. If you are on another screen, choose Modifiable to access the maintenance screen.
    2. Press Enter.

  • For an influencing field, you can maintain an influencing value and the indicators for the modifiable fields:
    1. Choose the Influencing function key.
      2. The fields for which you can enter influencing values appear.
    2. Choose the influencing field to which you want to assign a concrete value by double clicking.
      3. The fields that you can modify based on the influencing value appear.
    3. Maintain a value in the influencing value field and the corresponding indicators for the modifiable fields.
    4. Choose Continue.
      5. Your entries are accepted.
    5. Maintain more values for the influencing field or choose more fields using the Influencing function key.
    6. Save your entries.

  • You can maintain an indicator for a modifiable field and also determine the values of the influencing fields:
    1. Choose the Modifiable function key to access the screen for modifiable fields.
    2. In order to choose a modifiable field for which you want to maintain influencing values, you have to double click.
      3. All influencing fields appear.
    3. Position the cursor on the influencing field, on which you want to enter a value, and choose the New values function key.
      4. A dialog box appears.
    4. Maintain the value and indicator of the field to be influenced.
    5. Choose Continue.
      6. The values are transferred.
    6. Save your entries.

Further notes

If you want to set different field selection definitions for several users (for example, in different countries), you can copy an SAP transaction and configure the field selection for each transaction.

You can create a new transaction as follows:

  1. Copy the Standard transaction in the ABAP Workbench.
  2. Copy transaction control for Inventory Management using the view V_158_ALL.
  3. Define the movement types allowed for the new transaction in the step Movement types -> Copy, change movement types. Copy the help text for the new transaction if required.
