Manually Add Screen and Fields in Mapper

This topic describes how to add fields and screens using their technical information.

In case if the field is not present in the previous option, user has to manually find the technical name of the SAP field or screen name and add it in the mapper. In some cases user may have to add the screen as well. This can be achieved in Mapper using Copy and Paste option or by using Clone option. Both will result in addition of duplicate rows which user can use to update the missing field or screen information.

Refer to the video to understand how to add fields manually.
