Changing a Table Structure (SAP Library - Variant Configuration (LO-VC))

Changing a Table Structure

Use

You can insert new characteristics when you change a table structure. You can delete existing characteristics from the table structure, provided that they have not yet been used in dependencies.

You can only change value assignment alternatives if the table has not yet been used in released dependencies:

You cannot change the first value assignment alternative once the table has been used in an action or procedure.

If the table is used in constraints, you can no longer change any existing value assignment alternatives. However, you can create new value assignment alternatives.

You can change value assignment alternatives and delete characteristics if you set the status of the dependencies to Locked.

Procedure

1. From the variant configuration menu, choose Tools ® Table structure ® Change.

2. Enter the name of the table whose structure you want to change.

3. Make your changes and save the table structure.
