Definition

Element type in SAP Records Management.

An element type is a set of elements of a service provider (see below). You can only use a service provider if you have created at least one element type in this service provider. A service provider can contain any number of element types.

You can adapt element types in Customizing according to customer-specific requirements. Element types are maintained in the transaction SRMREGEDIT.

Service providers enable integration of elements into Records Management and access to elements. Each service provider is responsible for a particular group of elements. (Examples: Service provider for documents, service provider for record models, service provider for business objects).

Within a service provider, you can adapt element types to make this group more specific. Each element type belongs to exactly one service provider and sets the parameters for the service provider. To insert an element in Records Management, you need to select the appropriate element type. This also ensures that the correct service provider is called.

Example: SRM_SPS_RECORD

To find the element type of an existing element:

  • Select the element in the Records Organizer, right-click, and choose "Information" from the context menu.
  • The ID (technical name) and the name of the element type are displayed in the list of information for the element.
