Object Browser Initial Screen

The Object Browser is a navigation tool for accessing R/3 Repository objects. This browser assists in drilling down in the object hierarchy. Development classes are categories of SAP objects that you can access. Before you create a program, you specify its development class. A common transport route is defined for all objects within a development class. Customer-specific development classes begin with Y or Z.

If the development class does not exist, you will be prompted to create it. If the development class does exist, the next screen will display the development object list for the specified development class.
Select the development class by positioning the cursor on the development class name, and pressing the Create icon on the application tool bar. A pop-up window will be displayed with classifications of development objects. Select the radio button in front of the Program objects classification.
A pop-up window for program objects will be displayed. Enter the program name, beginning with a Y or Z. Verify that the radio button in front of the Program entry in the list is selected , and press the Create icon at the bottom of the window.
A dialog box then appears, asking you if you want to create the program with a TOP include. If you choose to do so, the system generates an include program in which you can store all declarations (only if you keep to the naming conventions, e.g. program names in module pools begin SAPM...)
If you are creating a test object which you do not want to be transported, choose Local object. The development class is then set to $TMP.
You then specify the name of the new program. To proceed, click the radio button Program and choose Display. You will then continue as described above.
