User Exits for CATS notebook
Customer Exit MYCATS01 (Enhancement of the Picklists for myCATS) You can use the MYCATS01 customer exit to make the following changes to the picklists for the offline variant of the Cross-Application Time Sheet: Standard picklists (SAP)
- Change or delete existing entries
- Add rows
Note:If you require additional columns in the picklist, you have to define a customer-specific picklist.
Customer-specific picklists - Replace the standard picklist entirely with a customer-specific picklist
- Define picklists for customer-specific fields in the data entry screen
Please note that any changes that you make in the SAP System must also be made in the XML repository of the offline variant of the Cross-Application Time Sheet. The following naming conventions apply:
- Standard picklists: PICKLIST_Feldname, for example PICKLIST_RPROJ (you can find the field names in the CATSDB database table of the Cross-Application Time Sheet).
- Customer-specific picklists: Z_PICKLIST_fieldname
The MYCATS01 customer exit consists of the following elements: - SAP_FIELDNAME
Contains the name of the field for which the picklist is defined. - SAP_PICKLIST
Contains the current standard picklist.You can modify these picklists,
but you cannot change the picklist type. - REFERENCE_TO_NEW_PICKLIST
If you want to define a customer-specific picklist, REFERENCE_TO_NEW_PICKLIST must contain a reference to it.If you set this reference, all changes to SAP_PICKLIST are ineffective.
Please note that the reference can only refer to a data object that you create using CREATE DATA .If it does not, you cannot evaluate the reference after the system has run through the customer exit. - SAP_PERNR, SAP_PROFILE, SAP_LANGU
Use these elements to implement customer-specific checks or
dependencies. Example You want to add a row for WBS elements to the current picklist, SAP_PICKLIST .You then want to make the modified picklist into a customer-specific picklist, and add a column to it. *----------------------------------------------------------------------* * INCLUDE ZXMYCU01

ENDIF. *----------------------------------------------------------------------* The introductory query, IF sap_fieldname = 'RPROJ' is used to
determine the field whose picklist you want to modify.This is the only way of ensuring that you can adjust picklists for different fields separately. The following lines are used to create the reference to your customer-specific picklist. - FIELD-SYMBOLS: <my_picklist> TYPE ANY TABLE.
CREATE DATA reference_to_new_picklist TYPE my_wbs_picklist. ASSIGN reference_to_new_picklist->* TO <my_picklist>. - <my_picklist> = my_wbs_picklist
