Any way to put a favourite in SAP menu for a specific table view

[srinivas_krishnamoorthy]

We have a requirement where users want to be able to have a favourite defined for a specific table (MARC as an example). They want to be able to double click on the favourite (appearing upfront in the menu bar) that directly takes them to a specific table. They do not want to be doing a SE16, remembering the table name and typing it in to execute.

Is there a way to do this without intensive ABAP development ?

Hello Srinivas,

Its pretty easy actually and the good news is no ABAP development is required.

In trans. SE93 choose the radiobutton option to create a Parameter Transaction. Then in the subsequent screen enter transaction SE16 and tick box Skip initial screen, in GUI support options check all tickboxes and press Enter. On the same screen down in the table control box of Default Values enter value DATABROWSE-TABLENAME as Name of screen field and enter value MARC in the Value column, finally syntax check the transaction and that's it!

Now add the transaction to your Favourites in the SAP Easy Access Menu and double click on it.

Hope this answers your question and please do not forget to reward points.

Cheers,

Sougata.

p.s. the only problem for this solution (without ABAP development) is that a number of similar parameter transactions have to be created depending on how many tables the users want to access on a daily basis for e.g. one transaction for table MARC one for MARA etc. If there are not too many tables they want then I think you should be fine to go ahead with this solution. Regards.
