Symptom
Using the table control configuration, you are unable to hide the columns on the overview screens of the purchasing documents (purchase requisition, purchase order, request for quotation, outline agreement).


Additional key words
ME21, ME51, ME41, ME31, ME31K, ME31L, ME21N, ME22N, ME23N, OMF4


Cause and prerequisites
The hiding of fields was and still is controlled by Customizing.Here, you can - with the help of the field selection key - make fields invisible (for example, for a particular document type). This setting overrides the individual table control setting.


Solution
It is currently not possible to hide columns selectively for each user. Instead, SAP recommends that you shift the columns you do not require in the table control to the far right and save this setting.
