Remember to Generate your Features (versions below 4.6) especially in a newly created client or after
having transported a feature.
Features - Useful Table
Look at table T549d - it is quite useful. Use transaction code SE16 to view the contents of the table, which
holds information relating to the client, feature, indicator, function part and structure relating to each
feature. If you wish to only display the features that have been configured in a specific client then type in
the variable "*xxx*" where xxx is your client name.
Feature PINCH
This feature returns the value for the administrator group which is used on IT 0001. The feature allows
you to choose between master data and applicant data. You can use the usual decision objects. If the
return value is offered as **** then the administrator group will correspond to the employee's personnel
area. Alternatively you can offer other return values. These values or groups need to have corresponding
entries in table T526 which lists all the available administrators for each particular group.
Hints & Tips
• Always copy a feature to create a new one. It is not advisable to create one without using the
copy function.
• Whenever sub-features are created, remember that the return value must always be the same as
that expected in the top-level feature.
• The command FLDID is used to call subfeatures.

5. • You can double-click a sub-feature in "tree" mode but not in table mode. To go to a sub-feature
you can either go back to the main feature editor screen or you can enter "f " in the Editor
command line.
• For sub-features, you need to edit the Structure to tick the checkbox indicating a sub-feature.
• When editing the structure relating to the feature, remember to turn fields on if you require them
to be used in the feature.
• If you are wanting to find out which feature calls another one - i.e. the relationships between
different features, you can get this information by running the report RPLMKM00. This report
gives the predecessors and successors for each feature stipulated.
• You can't cut and paste across clients by using the cut, copy buttons in the new tree editor. What
you need to do is use the table editor and cut and paste using Ctrl+Y to select and then Ctrl+C
Ctrl+V etc.
• If you can't activate your feature because of an error, save your feature temporarily from the
option in the menu path. This allows you to at least save what you have done - even if it does
contain errors which you will need to correct.
Common Errors
• If Features including sub-features become too big, they will fail with an ABAP failure. This can
occur whenever the feature and sub-features become too large. When the feature and its sub-
feature are generated, the program converts the feature into program code. When this reaches a
limit of more than 16 000 lines, the program fails.
• Even though the Structure can be changed to include fields on which decisions can be made, the
ABAP code that calls the feature at run-time may not have the necessary value at that point,
therefore the decision is never reached.
• Whenever you create a new SAP client, you should run the program RPUMKG00. This will copy
all the features from 000 to the new client and generate them.
In Table Maintenance Editor, the following commands can be used in the Editor Line
Used as a "goto function". The cursor is moved to the selected line
A (A)ttach number. Enter "A" followed by a blank character and then the line number
you want to access.
The syntax of the feature is checked. If it is correct, the system displays a
CHECK
message "Feature OK", and if not, it displays an error message.
Enables you to display/maintain a different feature. Enter "F", then a
F (F)etch
space, and then the five-character key of the desired feature.

I (I)nsert
"I", then a space, and then the desired number.

Replaces one character string with another. The character string is
replaced every time it occurs. Enter "R", then a space, then the character
R (R)eplace
string to be replaced, then another space, and finally the character string
to be inserted instead.
Saves the feature and checks the syntax at the same time. If an error is
