Deleting TVARV entries

“I would like you all to know the importance of TVARV table”. 

SAP has provided this table to avoid hard coding of constant values in programs.  TVARV table entries are transportable. 

Rules to keep in mind:

1.       We don’t want to insert TVARV entries if the data elements / values already exist in SAP.  We should build the logic to extract the necessary information from SAP.

2.       Some developers try to put such entries into TVARV table to simplify their coding efforts.  But, that is not a recommended approach.

3.       We don’t want to insert if you have several records of similar type.  Custom ‘Z’ table is an option in such case.  Eg: Activity Types & Descriptions.

4.       Good for all Constant values.  E.g: Please check TVARV table entries (with Z* on name).
