Does SAP keep change history for program variants?

Hi,
Does anybody know whether SAP keep change history for program variants, like it does for PO, Material etc?
If so, how could I get this information? If not, does it mean there is no way we could find the changes made to the variant?
Thanks
steven

Hello Steven,
I see that this is your first post to the forums here and I would like to welcome to SDN and BPX. I hope you will find these communities very helpful for learning and sharing information about SAP Products and Technologies.
Regarding your question, I think the best place to find the answer would be the ABAP Development.
However, being an experienced ABAP developer myself, I do not think program variants have change history. And yes, there is no way to retrieve the old values of the variants .
Regards.

How to maintain change history for a custom field

Hi All,
I have added a new custom field in standard table FKKVKP by appending a new structure to FKKVKP. Now this custom field will appear in transaction CAA2. My requirement is I have to maintain change history for my custom field. In transaction SCDO I have seen that there is an object MKK_VKONT that maintains change history for FKKVKP entries. But I am not aware how to adjust this field so that SAP generates change history for my custom field as well.
Thanks in advance,
Venkat

Venkatesh,
DFKKTAXEX
FKKVK
FKKVKP
FKKVK_CORR
I have never used these tables but I have working experience with change docs.
The Z field which you have added should be in the above structures, then you should be able to see that field in the changes.
Of course change document should be set to that field-data element.

Do you mean you have a Macbook Pro (laptop) versus a Mac Pro (desktop)?
You can back up the MBP, restart using Command+R to boot into the Mavericks Recovery HD, erase the Mactintosh HD and Reinstall OS X. Then you can go through setup and configure it with your information and Apple ID. Mavericks should not prompt you for an Apple ID when it goes through the install since that OS is free.
One thing you might want to consider is asking the previous owner to unregister the MBP from his Apple ID if he previously registered it. Then you can register it under your Apple ID.
The previous owner should have wiped it clean and reinstalled the OS that came pre-installed before selling it.

My safari does not keep my history despite all the settings and adjustment i made to the safari preferences so as to be able to keep my browsing history. the browsing history is wiped out whenever i close safari.

i use macbook pro mid 2012, OS X mavericks. my safari does not keep my history desp[ite all the adjustments made to the settings at safari preferences. my browsing history are cleared whenever i exit safari. i dont know why. i want to try and re - in stall it . the safari is version 7.0.1. but i dont know how.

If you're having trouble making changes to files that are inside your home folder (represented by a house icon in the sidebar of a Finder window), or if you can't get changes to the settings of an application to stick, then please see below.
Back up all data.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR..; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_; chmod -R -N ~ $_; } 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take a few minutes to run, or perhaps longer if you have literally millions of files in your home folder. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password dialog will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
In the dialog, select the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if it's not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if it's not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

How do i customize firefox 5 to keep visits history for 120 days?

where do i tell firefox 5 to keep visits history for 120 days as we used to do it easily in earlier versions ?

Till Firefox 3, hidden settings like ''browser.history_expire_days'' were supported that allowed you to control how long the history is maintained. But, for various reasons, these settings are no longer supported. Firefox 4 and above use a heuristic algorithm to decide how long to keep the history items. See this article for more information: [http://blog.bonardo.net/2010/01/20/places-got-async-expiration Places Got Async Expiration].<BR><BR>
Nevertheless, you can set the value of these hidden settings for some degree of control:
* ''places.history.expiration.max_pages'': the maximum number of pages that will be retained before expiring.
* ''places.history.expiration.interval_seconds'': number of seconds between each expiration algorithm run.
You can change these hidden settings by following these steps:
# Open a new tab and in the address bar, type '''about:config''' and then press '''Enter'''
# Click the '''I'll be careful, I promise''' button
# In the '''Filter''' text box at the top, type '''places.history.expiration.max_pages'''
# You will be presented with the setting for ''places.history.expiration.max_pages''.
# Right click on it, select '''Modify''' and enter the desired value.
# Click '''OK'''.
# Repeat these steps for ''places.history.expiration.interval_seconds''.
<BR>Maybe there is an add-on that allows you to configure how long you wish to keep history. Search for it here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/

Help:: Tracking the change history for a BP

Hi All..
I really need ur help.. Somebody please..
I'm making a prog. to update BP (TCODE: BP) & it run well. But now, i'm getting to make report for change history in BP. As for it, i look up it in table CDHDR & CDPOS, but i didn't find it :(.
I use these FM to update:
1. BUP_BUPA_UPDATE.
2. ADDR_SAVE_INTERN.
Even i have tried to run FM ADRESSE_WRITE_DOCUMENT, but it still didn't work well.
The questions are:
1. Am i right for using FM ADRESSE_WRITE_DOCUMENT in order to get the history change in CDHDR & CDPOS.
2. How to use FM ADRESSE_WRITE_DOCUMENT? What should i fill up in parameter: OBJECTID,PLANNED_CHANGE_NUMBER,PLANNED_OR_REAL_CHANGES,
and NO_CHANGE_POINTERS ???
3. Why do always i got the exception NO_POSITION_INSERTED in using FM ADRESSE_WRITE_DOCUMENT? How to solve it?
4. Or are there any ways how to update well where i'm able to track the change history for BP? / Is that any functions to update BP like FM CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN.
Thx so much.. for ur attention
Ur guidance is so much needed.
Best Regards
Daniel N.

Hi Daniel,
You can refer to table TCDOB for object class, it has a list of object class to which you can refer to and also the text description for each object class exists in that table.
Regarding the object id, you need not pass the value of the object id unless and until you want to read the change history of a particular Business partner.
Pass the value of the object class and if required the date of change to track the changes made to the BP's in that particular time period.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Karthik.

Instead of joining your network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed

How to execute a MTS (Master Test Script) in SAP ECATT Test Configuration for multiple variants.

I have a MTS (Master Test Script) which references 4 Test Scripts. As of now, I am able to run this MTS directly by opening it as a Test Script and running it for default test data.
Now, I want to run this MTS in SAP ECATT Test Configuration for multiple variants/test data. I am not able to see any parameter if I enter MTS in the Test Configuration.
Below thread is similar to my requirement but I am not able to understand the solution properly.

DOES SAP charge per byte for B2B sceanrios ?

Hi All,
Does SAP charge per byte for B2B scenarios. If yes can any one provide some leads to get more information on this.
Thanks
Raju

It varies from customer to customer, from product to product.
The default procedure is to charge all B2B traffic, but in some cases the customer contract can exclude some scenarios from extra-charging.
For example, there are some standalone/engine products which require XI/PI to communicate with external Business Partners, in particular the government. In some cases, since that communication is a legal requirement, its charge is embedded in the engine license, and no extra charge is done for the external XI traffic.
As sugested, best way to be sure is to have your contract analyzed together with SAP sales contact.
Regards,
Henrique.

PO Change history for Condition types

Hi All,
I need to develop a PO ammendment report, where my client wants to capture all changes in the PO. I have checked and found that for fields like pricing/ tax conditions and texts SAP does not keep any track of change. Say for example my freight earlier was $100 and now have changed to $200. In report I need to capture against the FReight condition type what was the old value and what was the new value. CDPOS even does not capture in which condition type I have chanegd the value.
Please suggest the way ahead. Is ther any provision to activate change histoty for these fields?
Best Regards

I have also checked with version management. But it does not capture in which condition type I changed the price. It only reflects the changes in Gross and net price. IN CDHDR also it did not capture. Please suggest the way ahead. Is ther any provision to activate change histoty for these fields?

Is there a change history for the STAT retention setting?

I've been told that the setting that controls the retention period for the STAT files is maintained by the ST03 transaction. (Export Mode / Collector and Performance DB / Workload Collector / Control Data.)
Is there any kind of change history kept on this setting, or any way to look at what this setting was in the past? We are on SAP Basis version SAPKB62061.
We had this setting originally configured to 72 hours in order to allow us a longer recovery time for problems with FireFighter activity capture. Now the setting is at 48 hours. This has actually caused us to be missing some FF activity. Had some failures on the FF Log Update job from last Friday night and when I went in to manually run the job to capture the missing FF activity, the STAT data is missing.
Need to see if I can determine who changed the setting, and when.
Thanks.

Why does it keep asking me for the login keychain password?

I am having a problem where my imac keeps asking me for a "login keychain" password. I type in my password every time, but that doesn't fix my problem. I need to know if this is bad or not, and how i can turn it off.
Thanks!

Hey there Daniel,
It sounds like you are being prompted over and over for your Login Keychain, and entering it does not seem to make the prompts stop. I would start by running First Aid on the Keychain with this article:
Mac OS X 10.6: Solving problems with keychains
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph7296
To check keychains for problems using Keychain First Aid:
Open Keychain Access, located in the Utilites folder in the Applications folder.
Choose Keychain Access > Keychain First Aid.
Enter your user name and password.
Select Verify and click Start. Any problems found will be displayed.
If there are problems, select Repair, and then click Start.
If that does not resolve the issue, I would next reset your Keychain:
In Keychain Access, choose Preferences from the Keychain Access menu.
If available, click the Reset My Default Keychain button. This will remove the login keychain and create a new one with the password provided.
If Reset My Default Keychain is not available, choose Keychain List from the Edit menu.
Delete the "login" keychain.
The next time you log in to the account, you can save your current password in a keychain.
From: OS X: Keychain Access asks for keychain "login" after changing login password

Does Sync keep a history of over-written files?

Hi,
Does the mobility sync function keep a history of over-written files somewhere? Does it copy them to a trash-like place that can be recovered? or does it just over-write the older file? I have a problem where my Entourage database file did not load properly on the client machine, became corrupted, and has over-written the server version of the database.
Thanks,
Dave

There is no backup, just a sync.
As for entourage. The whole database thing is a joke.
If you have a database that is 1GB
and get 1 new email.
The system sees that the 1.1GB file is brand new and overwrites the old.
