Procedure documentation Activating and Deactivating Function Codes Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Within a status, functions can be active or inactive. Active functions are executable functions and inactive functions are not executable. You should deactivate a function if the mode of your application changes and the function is no longer available. For example, in view mode a function like delete would not be active.

If inactive functions are assigned to the application toolbar, the system does not display the function unless you have set the fixed positions option for the application toolbar.

In the standard toolbar, the system grays out inactive functions at runtime.
