Set Subscreen
for Account Assignment (Coding) Block
R/3 System account assignment transactions use
subscreens, which contain the various account assignment fields. When
generating the screens for these transactions, the system searches for the
most suitable subscreen, that is, the one containing the most required
fields.
If there is no subscreen that contains all the
necessary fields, you have to enter the additional fields in a separate dialog
box.
You can define your own subscreens in this
step. This means you can structure your subscreens to suit your own
requirements and thus avoid having to enter account assignment fields in an
additional dialog box.
Note
Any changes you make apply in all clients and
for all transactions that use the coding block.
Requirements
To be able to maintain subscreens, you must
have authorization to maintain cross-client tables (
S_TABU_CLI).
Defining
subscreens
To define a subscreen, proceed as
follows:
1. On the
Maintain Coding Block Subscreens: Overview screen, select the
Create function.
The system displays
the Maintain Coding Block Subscreens: Detail
screen.
2. Enter a
4-character number and a description for your subscreen.
The numbers 9000 to
9999 are reserved for customer subscreens. The system proposes the next
available number from this interval. You can overwrite the proposed value, if
required.
3. Enter a
number between 1 and 9 in the Priority field (1 = highest; 9 =
lowest).
The
priority allows you to "fine tune" the search for the most
suitable subscreen.
4. Maintain the
Active indicator.
When looking for
suitable subscreens, the system only takes into account those which are both
active and generated.
Note
This function allows
you to deactivate both your own subscreens and the standard SAP subscreens if
you do not want to use them.
5. Select the
Fields you want to use in your subscreen.
You select a field
by assigning a valid position on the subscreen.
Each subscreen can
accommodate a maximum of 10 fields. The positions are numbered from 1 (1st
line left) to 10 (5th line right). In several posting transactions (
->) larger subscreens with a maximum of 40 fields are
possible, but these subscreens are not selected during most
transactions.
In certain fields
you can display master data texts for the field values. To do this, select the
"With text" field. An entire row is necessary for this field.
Example
Let us assume you
have defined your subscreen as follows:
Field
Name Position With
text
Asset
1
Order
3 X
Cost
center 2
Material
5
Plant
6
In this subscreen
the account assignment fields would be displayed as follows:
Asset
Cost center
Order
Short descrip. of order
Material
Plant
6. When you
have finished maintaining your subscreen, you have to save it. Subscreens are
saved in two steps:
a) You store
the subscreen in the system using the Save function. The
subscreen is, however, latent.
Subscreens which are
not yet effective are flagged as "Not generated" in the overview
list.
b) You activate
the subscreen throughout the system using the Generate
function.
Note
If you have no further use for one of your own
subscreens, you can either delete it from the list, or deactivate it using the
Active indicator. The latter method has the advantage that you can regenerate
the subscreen later and use it again.
Maintaining SAP
subscreens
The changes you can make to the SAP subscreens
delivered in the standard system are very limited:
- You can change the priority (see
priority ).
Note
If you try to delete an SAP subscreen, the
system deletes only the changes you made and restores the standard delivery
version.
Reset to
standard
Using this function, you can restore all the
subscreens to the standard delivery version. Your changes are not lost,
however:
- Any SAP subscreens you changed are reset to
standard and flagged in the overview as "Not currently generated
".
- Your own subscreens are flagged as
"Not generated".
Generate
all
Using this function, you can generate all
subscreens
Activities
1. Check
whether the standard SAP subscreens meet all your requirements.
2. Create new
subscreens if necessary.
3. If
necessary, change the priority or the active indicator for the preset
subscreens.
