3580562 - Inclusion of Custom Fields in FB70 App

Symptom

There is a requirement to include custom fields in the app "Create Outgoing Invoices" (FB70).

Environment

SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Open the app "Create Outgoing Invoices" (FB70).
  2. Observe that some custom fields are included in the app, while others are not.

Cause

The apps/transactions FB60/FB70 generally do not support custom fields. There is an exception that a maximum of five generic fields are available which can be used via Coding block enhancement in Custom Fields and Logic. These fields would have to be of type character (text). If more than five custom fields are defined, only five of them will be taken into account. It is not possible to influence which custom field will be taken into account if more than five custom fields are available.

Resolution

There is a known limitation that the apps/transactions FB60/FB70 generally do not support custom fields. 

Fiori based apps for Posting Incoming/PostOutgoing Invoice are currently being developed and they will not have these limitations.
