Class types can allow assignment of objects from different tables at the same time. To define this, select Multiple Objects Allowed on the Detail screen of the class type. If you set this indicator, you must also process the Objects View for the class type. This is where you enter the object tables that you want to classify with the class type. For technical reasons, the Generated Tables and Change Documents indicators can only be set in conjunction with the multiple objects allowed indicator. This means, that you may sometimes need to set the multiple objects allowed indicator, even if you only want to classify one object type.

The engineering department in our company wants classes in which material masters and documents can be included at the same time. In this next step, we want to create a new class type that enables this. We want to use this class type to create combination classes for material, masters and documents. We will go to the customizing of the classes again. In the SAP GUI, we are in the SAP menu. Tools customizing, IMG, execute project equals transaction SPRO, here in the SAP reference IMG, cross application components, classification system, and here's the second entry classes. Class type is maintained and also created here in the second entry. The initial screen is the object table. In our case, this means DRAW for documents, or MARA for material masters. We select MARA and go to the class types. We can simply copy and adjust class type 001. As the key, we choose a value from the customer language area. For example, Z01. Let's name it combi class. Enter. In this dialog box, we must decide which class type is standard class type, 001 or Z01. No, that is, 001 remains the standard class type for material masters. 16 entries have been copied, that is, all class type specific entries here in the customizing hierarchy. Double click to return to the detail screen of the class type. Do you want to keep the copied settings? In principle, yes, but we want multiple objects allowed. More specifically, we want to allow material masters and documents. Enter and the system displays this dialog box. We now need to assign the two object types to class type Z01. This is done here in the first subsection, Objects. New entries. Let's start with the material master, that is, Z01. MARA, four Dynpros screen numbers that we saw in the last demonstration, and three labels for this object type, depending on the available space in the corresponding application. 30 digits, 15 digit, 3 digits. The second object type is the document, that is, with Z01. Draw, four Dynpros screen numbers that we saw in the last demonstration, and 3 descriptions for this object type. 30 digits, 15 digit, 3 digits. Now let's check the other class type specific settings. Here is the class status. That's usually fine. This is not how we change anything here either. The same applies to organizational areas. For the text types. For the classification status. for finding objects' features and filters. However, we also want to add the option of displaying documents from the search result. That is,Z01, draw, 2, CV03N  and we save the new class type. We need a new request, and enter and the class type is saved. Finally, Finally, we check the result by creating a class with this class type. Any name. Class type is Z01. Create. A description. We include any characteristic whose use in classes has not been restricted. For example, the color. Save. Finally, we check the result by classifying with this class and thus with this class type. Our new class. Only New Assignments. Let's start with Material Master. Here this is the 30 digits entry from the previous. Any material number, for example, this one. Any color, for example, red. Save and again. Only New Assignments. Now the document. Here this is the 30 digits entry from the previous. Any document key, for example, this one. Any color, for example, blue. Save. Finally, we check the result by searching for objects with this class and therefore with this class type. Our new class. Enter. With any color, that is, white card. And one of the two search buttons. We find both objects. Here also with the three digits abbreviation for the object type. We can view the material. Select the line with the material number and select this here. The view of the classification Since we have set it accordingly, we can also display the document. Select the line with the document number and select this here. This is the button for the classification view. Nice. Back and we are at the end of this demonstration.
