Creating and Parametrizing Items

Creating an item

1. Create a reference variable for an item

   DATA: CU_ITEM TYPE REF TO CL_CU_ITEM
                     

2. Create an instance of the item

   CREATE OBJECT CU_ITEM
   EXPORTING INSTANCE_ID = <unique name>.
                     

   The INSTANCE_ID must be unique for all item customizing objects.

   For more information, see Creating Customizing Bundles.

Setting parameters for an item

Call the SET method in IF_CUSTOMIZING
CALL METHOD CU_ITEM -> IF_CUSTOMIZING~SET
        EXPORTING
   ATTR_ID = CL_CU_ITEM => CO_TYPE "type of item
   VALUE     = 1    "icon
IMPORTING 
   RETVAL = RETVAL.
            

You have to call the SET method every time you want to assign an attribute to an item.
