Environment Menu

Use

The Environment menu contain application-specific maintenance dialog change functions.

Features

The following options are available:

Maintenance screens

You go to the Screen Painter. Here you can modify the generated edit screens (overviews and detailed screen if necessary).
User Interface

You can create a dialog-specific interface which can be changed with the Menu Painter.

Note

The maintenance dialogs access the standard table /view maintenance interface in the function group SVIM. You can define a function group interface by choosing Interface to copy and change the original interface. The message User Interface Exists in the Maintain Interface Assignment dialog indicates whether an interface already exists in the current function group.
Display Module

Displays the definition of the function modules generated by the table/view maintenance in the ABAP Workbench Function Builder.

Caution

The (view-dependent) function modules VIEWFRAME_ <view name> and VIEWPROC_ <view name> are generated for views when a maintenance dialog is generated. The (table-independent) function modules TABLEFRAME_ <function group> and TABELPROC_ <function group> are created per function group for tables. These modules must not be changed.
Events

To include user routines in the maintenance dialog. For detailed information about events choose Information ( i pushbutton) on the event maintenance screen.
Variants

Create a table/view contents maintenance selection variant.
Transaction Code

Assign or maintain transaction code to a maintenance dialog.
Maintenance Objects

Source Text

Authorization Groups

Maintain table/view maintenance authorization groups.
Assign Auth. Group

Assign table/view to an authorization group.

Note

The maintenance authorization of a user is determined by the table maintenance authorization in the user master record, which is usually restricted to a user-specific group of maintenance dialogs. The assignment of a dialog to an authorization group determines which users are authorized to maintain the view/table contents.
