Documentation

This indicator specifies if a maintenance view or maintenance variant is fully or only restrictedly protected against standard maintenance tools such as the Data Browser (transaction SE16) or the table view maintenance (transactions SM30 and SM31).

Use

The indicator can have the following values:

  • ' ' = Usage of standard table maintenance tools allowed on a restricted basis:
    • If the indicator is set to ' ', the respective view can be displayed, but not maintained with transaction SE16.
    • A maintenance dialog for this view can be generated using transaction SE54.
    • Transaction SM30 does not allow the maintenance and display of this view.

      Note: The dialog generated can be included in view clusters (data maintenance with transaction SM34) or in a program using the function module View_Maintenance_Call.
  • 'X' = Usage of standard table maintenance tools allowed:
    • The respective view can be maintained and displayed with transaction SE16.

      Note: Should an SM30 maintenance dialog exist, this dialog is called.
    • A maintenance dialog for this view can be generated using transaction SE54.
    • Transaction SM30 allows the display and maintenance of this view.

      Note: The dialog generated can be included in view clusters (data maintenance with transaction SM34) or called similarly to the transaction call SM30 using the function module View_Maintenance_Call.

Remark:
When the standard maintenance tools are used, the system checks the authorizations of the user.
