Assign Display Attributes

In this IMG activity, you can assign additional display attributes to characteristics. These attributes allow you to display additional information from the master data tables in your reports.

Example

In a report that contains the characteristic "Customer" you want to be able to see not only the customer name and key, but also the city. To do this, you need to assign the attribute "City" to the characteristic "Customer".

Standard Settings

A few sample attributes are contained in the standard R/3 System.

Activities

1. Enter the field name of the desired characteristic.
2. Specify where in the attribute list you want the display attribute to appear.
3. Enter the attribute name and the table of origin of the attribute. The attribute name must correspond to that in the table of origin.

Save the attribute. After this point the attribute is available for your reports.

Further Notes

The assignment of display attributes to characteristics is valid in all clients.
