Change caption from another Extension via table extension

Posted on by 93

Hello,

is there any reason why i cant change a caption from another extension with table extension?
The thing is, changing a standard bc field via table extension works - changing a field from another extension only works via page extension.

Is there any way to change the caption via table extension? I am asking because another modul uses the field caption, which is not affected by changing the caption via page extension.

Regards,
Marco

    Hi, have you tried using the translation file to modify it? Below is a simple example.

    Hope this can give you some hints.

    Thanks.

    Hi,

    sure i can change the baseapp captions, but not from another extension. I face the problem that there is a caption, coming from a separate extension, that needs to be changed.

    Trying that via table extension does not have any effect. it only works with page extension.
