Name of an SAP enhancement

Supplementary Documentation - MODNAME 0001

Definition

The SAP enhancements for an enhancement project are grouped together under a project name. An enhancement project always contains at least one SAP enhancement.

SAP enhancements in the same enhancement project are always activated and deactivated jointly.

The SAP enhancements are created by SAP and generally consist of several components (e.g. a screen area and the function exits for data transfer).

The customer chooses the SAP enhancements which he wants to edit, puts the enhancement projects together, edits the components and activates the projects.

Supplementary Documentation - MODNAME 0002

  • Work area:

    2 digits
  • Sub work area:

    1 letter

You can use any characters for the remaining places. It may be that conventions are established within each department.
