Value Tables

In PPP, fields can be filled from predefined values. These values are displayed to the user either as a dropdown list or a selection table.

By default, the value helps are determined generically and without any default or customer-specific customization. For example:

• For projects, the field Project Category is displayed in the UI. This field relates to the database table field PRO_CATEGORY in DPR_PROJECT. SAP has already defined an input help via a check table. Since this information is available in the Data Dictionary (DDIC), PPP can directly use this input help to display the values without requiring any customization.

Customizing is only required if you wish to overwrite or enhance the determined input help. This allows businesses to adapt the dropdown values to meet specific requirements beyond the default configuration. The values displayed in the dropdowns are fetched from database tables or search helps on the backend (if they exist).
