• Key Concepts: 
  Custom enumeration type editor is a feature of the Composite Application Framework (CAF) in SAP. It allows users to create and edit custom enumeration types, which are used to define the values of a field in an application. Enumeration types are used to limit the values that can be entered into a field, making it easier to ensure data accuracy and consistency. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the custom enumeration type editor, users must first create an enumeration type in the CAF. This can be done by selecting “Create Enumeration Type” from the menu. Once the type is created, users can then add values to it by selecting “Edit Enumeration Type” from the menu. This will open up a window where users can enter the values they want to include in the enumeration type. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating an enumeration type, it is important to make sure that all of the values are spelled correctly and that they are all unique. This will help ensure that data accuracy and consistency is maintained when entering data into fields that use the enumeration type. Additionally, it is important to make sure that all of the values are entered in the same case (e.g., all lowercase or all uppercase).
