Modifying SAP StylesLocate this document in the navigation structure

Procedure

If you want to modify SAP styles, set up your development environment as follows:

  1. Make sure that there are no SAP standard styles stored as client-specific copies in your development client.

    Such styles should be stored only in client 000. This is the SAP development and installation client. If you access SAP standard styles from another client, the system uses the central copy from client 000.

    If you must delete SAP standard objects from your development client, read SAP Notes 10388 and 3355. These notes explain the procedure for saving modified styles and then deleting all styles.

  2. To modify SAP standard styles, copy the styles you need from client 000 to your development client. Then proceed as follows:

    • Assign a name from the namespace reserved for customers to these objects (these names start with Y or Z).

    • Copy these objects into one of your own Y or Z development classes.

    Renaming SAP standard objects enables you to maintain and transport your changes using the Workbench Organizer. The Workbench Organizer is not available for SAP standard objects edited in clients other than 000.
