Procedure

Removing Existing Assignments

  1. Open the Mapping Assistant and switch to change mode.
  2. Choose the corresponding attribute.
  3. In the context menu, choose the required function:
    • Use Delete to remove the persistence representation between the table field and the attribute.
    • Use Remove persistence to change the selected attribute to a transient attribute.
    • Use the Release field link function for a selected value attribute to remove the persistence representation between the table field and the attribute. The attribute is still flagged as persistent.
    • For reference attributes, there are two functions for removing the persistence representation: Release reference field and Only release class ID.
  4. Choose Save.

Inserting New Tables and Structures

In the Table and Field Display , choose the appropriate table (structure) and in the context menu, choose ABAP Dictionary.

Assigning Fields from Multiple Tables (Structures)

It may be necessary to map fields from multiple tables (structures) to a class. For example, information about business objects in the BOR is distributed between multiple tables.

To include an additional table (structure) for a persistence representation, choose the Insert table/structure function from the context menu of the heading line in Table and Field Display . Enter the name of the new table (structure) and determine the Persistence Representation for it.

You should carry out the persistence representation for GUIDs and key attributes for each table (structure) involved.
