Creating Source Code Plug-Ins 

Procedure

...

       1.      Open the ABAP source with explicit or implicit enhancement options in the ABAP Editor.

More information about how to create explicit enhancement options: Explicit Enhancement Options in ABAP Source Code.

       2.      Switch to enhancement mode by using the Enhance pushbutton from the toolbar.

To exit the enhance mode, choose the Display <-> Changepushbutton.

       3.      Position your cursor on the explicit or implicit enhancement option and choose Enhancement Implementation  → Create Implementation/Option from the context menu.

The Select or Create Enhancement Implementation dialog box appears. You can choose an existing implementation or create a new one.

       4.      If you choose to create a new enhancement implementation, an empty source code plug-in is automatically created. It has a unique ID and is displayed in the ABAP Editor below the enhancement option as follows:

ENHANCEMENT id.

...

ENDENHANCEMENT.

       5.      Implement the enhancement between the ENHANCEMENT and ENDENHANCEMENT lines.

A source code plug-in is assigned to exactly one enhancement option (the container) but an enhancement option can be enhanced through several source code plug-ins.

Although source code plug-ins are displayed in the same source code as the respective enhancement options, they are stored in other include programs managed by the Enhancement Builder.
