Generating Access Key to create/modify objects in SAP namespace

I am not at all encouraging you to modify SAP standard programs or objects. But there are situations where you need to do this for example implementing form user exits in SD, creating objects as per sap notes etc. Whenever you modify an SAP standard objects or create object in SAP namespace system prompt you to enter access key. This is how you can generate this access key from service.sap.com.

You will get this dialog box if you try to modify SAP standard object. This gives you key of the object you are going to create or change along with SAP Release and Installation number. You need this information to generate key. In case you do not have authorisation to generate access key you need to pass these information to the person you are requesting.
