SE16n table edit works in DEV, but not in QA system

Question

I created a custom table. Editing works in a SAP dev system via se16n. But editing does not work in a quality assurance system.

Is there a way to edit the table anyway?

Answer 1

There is a trick if you have debugging authorisations. Basically you go into SE16n and enter debug mode with /h. There you have to change two variables (GD-SAPEDIT and GD-EDIT) to "X" and voilà, you can now unleash chaos on the database.

I should mention that this should not be done on a regular basis, because you can really mess up some stuff. (been there, done that)
