Function documentation Maintaining Document Classes  Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

You can define which document classes can be stored in the Business Workplace in table TSOTD. You specify whether individual classes can be created from the Workplace interface. If this is the case, you can select these classes in the field Document class, using the entry help, when you create documents. It is possible to completely forbid certain document classes in the Business Workplace. Alternatively, you can forbid the creation only of documents of a certain class. This means that documents of this class cannot be created from the Business Workplace interface, but can still be stored in the Workplace.

The PC document classes are entered in this table with the file extension EXT. You maintain individual specifications in another table.
