Yes It's an EBS table (Order Management) WSH_NEW_DELIVERIES there are 15 Attributes, I need to add 5 more. one way is I design a custom table and make the relation with the base table. Other way is I add 5 columns directly to base table and make a custom form, which is easy to do and fast. Only if the same is the right approach. When I am not at all hamering the existing columns why adding extra columns with xxprefix not recommended (If not).
