Accessing the extra tabs added in sales order through menu

Introduction:

This post will clearly explain you how to access the extra tabs added in sales

order  through menu bar.

At first we add the additional tabs in the sales order either through BADI or

in the screen of program SPMV45A directly. Next we have to display the tab

name as menu item to access the newly added tabs through menu.

Lets see how to achieve this.

Display the tab name in the menu bar:

To display the tab name as menu item follow the below steps.

1. Open the menu painter transaction SE14 ,and give the

program name as ‘SAPMV45B’ and select status radio button and give

status as ‘U’, and click on change button.

2.  Next expand menu bar, double click on Go to->Header->Additional

Functions, add a new function code example ‘ZXXX’ with tab name

‘New tab’.

3. Then right click on the function code and click on activate to activate the

function code  and activate the status.

4. Now if you go to the transaction and see, in the menu bar in Go

to->Header->Additional Functions, you can see the new tab name you

have added.

Link the new tab name added in the menu item to the tab sub screen:

Now after displaying the tab name  in the menu bar, we have to

link it with the function code in order to go to the tab sub screen through

menu bar.

1. Go to the transaction VFBS, and give program name as

‘SAPMV45B’ and select the radio button ‘Function codes’ and

click  on change button.

2. Next click on new entries and add new function code ‘ZTAB’ for

three transaction types Add (H), Change (V) and Display (A) and

save the data.

3.Next choose radio button ‘paths between processing locations’

and maintain the entry as below.

Program – SAPMV45B

Fcode -New function code

Subsequent panel – New function code

Fcode – ENT1

4.Next choose radio button processing locations and add new

function code ‘ZTAB’ with screen number 4002, and screen

module1 as ‘4012’(Header sub screen) and screen module2 as

‘4323’ (Tab sub screen) and save the data.

Program – SAPMV45B

Screen group – K0

Panel -New function code

Screen 4323 is the sub screen container for badi

‘BADI_SLS_HEAD_SCR_CUS’.

5. Then finally in the standard include

‘MV45AF0F_FCODE_BEARBEITEN’, create an implicit enhancement and

write the logic to check if fcode equals to ‘ZTAB’ ( “new function code) then

assign the fcode with standard function code ‘K_CUS_BADI_1’ (function code

of header tab) and activate the enhancement. This code links new menu item

to the new tab added in the header .

With this you can go to your newly added tab through the

menu bar of the standard transaction. Similarly you can follow the same

approach for other standard transactions also.

Conclusion:

I hope this post has provided you the sufficient knowledge to display the tab

name in the menu bar to access the tabs directly from menu.
