Quite often we come across instances where we require custom fields on the face of quotations,

orders, etc. To achieve this, SAP has provided an Additional tab named Additional Data tab B at

header and item level in VAxx transactions. However, over a period of time, these additional tabs

get cluttered with many custom fields, especially in a matured project. Now if the business

demands more custom fields on quotations, orders on a new tab altogether, what is the solution?

Yes, youre right! We require more tabs; preferably next to Additional Data tab B.

How do we go about achieving this functionality?

Well, we firstneed to add custom fields to VBAK table using APPEND STRUCTURE. Its assumed we

all know it already.

Now, ifyoure using a system with Enhancement Pack 6installed, youd be delighted to know SAP

has provided a BAdI named BADI_SLS_HEAD_SCR_CUS/BADI_SLS_ITEM_SCR_CUS. You can find

this in SPRO

All you need to do is just implement this BAdI. Use the methodsACTIVATE_TAB_PAGEto

populate name of the Tab, custom program name and the dynpro number. Next, use

TRANSFER_DATA_TO_SUBSCREENand TRANSFER_DATA_FROM_SUBSCREENmethods for

passing the data to and fro from screen to workarea. More info here. And Voila! You can see the

custom tab added next to Additional Data Tab B.

HOWSOEVER! For a few unfortunate souls like me who come to know their SAP system is not yeton Enh Pack 6, adding a new tab to VAxx becomes a challenge because the aforementioned BAdIs

are not available in the older systems.

So, what needs to be done?

Well, Im sure most of you have heard of this transaction named VFBS.

Yes, were now going to add a new tab to sales transactions in SAP using this very transaction!

Step1: Execute VFBS, enter program name as SAPMV45A

Step2: Select Tab Controland click Changebutton and add below records for header and item

tabs

Program Name: SAPMV45A

Screen Group: K0 (Screen Group for Header) and in case of item, the screen grp is P0

Number: 131 or the number immediately after Additional Data Tab B

Funct. Code: Any custom function code (eg. ZCM)

Description: Any meaningful description you want on the tab

Save and come back to the main screen

Step3: Enter program name as SAPMV45B, select the first radio button Function Codesand click

Change

Create new entries as below

TTyp- A, H and V are Create/Change/Display modes respectively

FCode- ZCM and ZCM2 are function codes for Header and Item tabs

Save the entries and back on the main screen of VFBS

Step4: Select the second option Paths between process locations


3/5

The idea behind creating entries in this step is to simply copy the standard SAP data already

maintained for Additional Data Tab B

The function code for Additional Data Tab B on Header Level is KZKU and PZKU is for item as

shown below in the screenshot taken from step 3

Now find the entries maintained for KZKUand PZKUfunction codes.

Were going to clone these entries as is and change the FCcodeand Subsequent Panelto ZCM

(Header) and ZCM2 (Item)

Step5: Select the third radio button on the main screen and click on the Change button


4/5

Now find for panel KZKU Header

Clone it and rename Panelto ZCM. Change the Location descriptionto something meaningful

K0as explained in step # 2, is the header group. Screen # 4002is the dynpro number for Header

tab.

Below screenshot taken using System->Statusin VA22onAdditional Data Tab B

Detailed view of the record created in this step is as shown below

Ive kept Screen module 2 as 8309. This can be changed to screen # 8310too. In that case, wed

simply need to add a line of code on the flow logic of screen # 4312below this line.

CALL SUBSCREEN 8310 INCLUDING 'SAPMV45A' '8310'.

Also, we need to add a subscreen of the same name in the screen Layout

Below is the screenshot of Item details. Again, in this case, we can change Screen Module2 to

8460

Now execute any VAxx transactions like VA02, VA22, etc, youll get to see the newly added tab.

To restrict visiblity of this tab to only a particular transaction, below is the code which needs to be

added using an Enhancement Implementation in INCLUDE MV45AF0C_CUA_SETZEN - FORM

CUA_SETZEN

Hope you find this useful!

Thanks for sharing! We are upgrading one system right now, so BADIs will come in handy for sure.

Finally some progress comes to the VAxx transactions. Now we never have to switch to HANA!
