The procedure for creating new development objects in the Object Navigator varies slightly depending on whether there an object with the same category already exists in the object list or not. If one exists, a node for that type of object is visible in the tree display. In this case, the corresponding context menu is available.

To create a new development object where the object node already exists in the object list:

1. Select the corresponding object node.
2. Choose Create from the context menu (right-click).

A dialog box appears.

3. Enter the name of the new object.

Remember that all Repository objects in the customer namespace must begin with Y or Z.

4. Choose Continue.

The system checks whether there is already an object with the same name in the system.

5. Enter the required object details and choose Save.

The Create Object Directory Entry dialog box appears.

6. Assign a development class to the object.
7. Choose to confirm your entries.

To create a new development object where the object node does not yet exist in the object list:

1. Choose Other object ( ).
2. In the Object Selection dialog box, choose the appropriate object type.
3. Enter the name of the object you want to create.

Note that all Repository objects in the customer namespace must begin with Y or Z.

4. Choose .

The system checks whether there is already an object with the same name in the system.

5. Enter the required object details and choose Save.

The Create Object Directory Entry dialog box appears.

6. Assign a development class to the object.
7. Choose to confirm your entries.

The system creates the object in the R/3 Repository in an inactive version. When you assign it to a development class, it is automatically linked to the transport and correction system.
