Bizarre situation with the "Where used list" for a table updated by FB50

Hello all,
I use the "where used list" (all check boxes selected) function in SE11 to find out where and how the table FMGLFLEXT (General Ledger Public Sector: Total) is being used and updated. All I get is a reference to a function module, namely   “G_POSTING_FMGLFLEXT”. When I do a "where used list" (once again, all check boxes selected) for the FM, I get the message: Function Module G_POSTING_FMGLFLEXT not found in selected search area Message no. ES120“ despite the fact that all check boxes are selected.
Yet this table contains data which were put in there via transaction FB50 (G/L Acct Pstg: Single Screen Trans.). So somehow, somewhere this data was created and put into the table.
I don’t get it! What am I missing?
Thank you for your help

There could be several reasons for this, including:
- The cross reference tables (used by the "where used" functionality) have not been updated in the system you are logged into - check with your Basis team on this as the programs that do this (a) run for hours and (b) take up a fair chunk of database space.
- The data may be stored via dynamic SQL (e.g. "insert into (g_tab_name)") so the table reference doesn't show up
- The function module may be called dynamically so the FM where used doesn't reflect this
You could try, instead, using the ST05 SQL Trace to track what code is updating the table when you run FB50.

    Old thread, but anyway: There is one more thing to do to get the complete where-used list:
    (1) Select all checkboxes in the "Used in" block (as you did, probably by using the button "Select All (F7)")
    (2) and use the button "Search Range" (quickinfo "Limit Search Range (F5)") -- although the following pop-up is called "Restrict hit lit" you will find there a checkbox "Search also in generated objects". In my case that's how I found a generated function module G_POSTING_Z.... in SAP's namespace but with customer db table name Z....

  • Where-Used List for Assemblies

    Hi PM Experts,
    Can you tell me hw to see the Where-Used List for assemblies.I m using CS15 T-Code for the same,but the problem is that i can see only for one assembly not for multiple assemblies.what is t-code for multiple.
    Regards,
    Raju chauhan

    If I understand the question correctly, you want to search for multi-level assembiles (materials) with a BOM which is linked to and equipment or functional location e.g.
    Floc
    -> BOM
    --> Assembly 1
    ---> Assembly A
    ---> Assembly B
    > Assembly B1
    If so, then I don't theing there is a standard report to search for equip/floc by sub-assemblies

  • Where used listing for Query Variables

    Can someone tell me how to get this list from the metadata repository or from the transport connector?
    I have read this thread "where used" list for BEx variables but this isn't working for us.
    Is there some config that is required which we have missing?
    We are running BI7 SP19 if this helps.
    Thanks
    Craig

    Arun,
    Yeah I figured as much, but this is why I am thinking we have something missing, config or otherwise.
    Cause all I get when I do this is a new window with just the Variable details and nothing else, no where used list at all i.e.

    Is there something I need to get our Basis Team to do ?

  • Where-Used list for BEx query chars & KFs

    Hello everyone.  I am trying to find a way to identify what Characteristics and Key Figures are used withing an infocube in BW.  I think that the BW Statistics cubes may help, but that was going to be my fallback option. 
    I couldn't find a way to do a where-used list for characteristic and key figures when in the Query Designer.  I can do a where-used on restricted key figures and char. variables.
    Does anyone know of other ways to do this.  How about looking in some of the core BW DB Tables (eg. RS*)?
    Thanks,
    Kevin

    Oh my, I just realized that I typed in my question wrong.  I am sorry.  That's what I get for doing this during a long meeting!
    Here's the right question (I double-checked this time):
    I am trying to find what queries contain some specific chars & KFs.
    So you are exactly right that the previous suggestion for using RSD1 would work to find what infocubes they are used in.
    Sorry for the confusion.

  • Where-used lists for standard messages

    HI ,
    I need to find where one particular standard message is used in the standard codes. For this I am going in to Txn SE91 , selecting the message and clicking the where-used list button. This is yielding no result.
    Is there anyother way of finding the which codes have used this message.
    Can anyone help me with this.
    Thanks in advance
    Debashish

    Ya very true. This particular message was called dynamically so it was not showing in the where-used list.
    However  I was able to get the code where this code was populated by putting a debugger at a standard macro that was used for populating the SLG1 log file. From there I was able to get the code where this message was called dynamically.
    Thanks to all

  • Where-used-list for APD-Routines (similar to rsaabap)

    Hi,
    I'm looking for a "where-used-list" for abap coding in APD-Routines. The table rsaabap contains BI-Transformations but not APD-Routines. Is there a similar table for APD-routines that holds the ABAP coding?
    Thanks,
    Joerg

    Hi Isabell,
    for the APD routines I didn't find a solution, but did you check the look-up finder:
    http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/BI/ABAPprogramtofindBIlookupsandcodePatterns
    The documentation says, that it also contains checks on expert routines.

  • "where used" list for query structures

    Hello Community,
    A structure is a re-useable BEx query object. I'm using the older version of BW 3.5, and we need to be able to identify the following :
    which structures have been used by a given query (using the query's technical name) ?
    which queries already make use of a given structure (using the structure's technical name) ?
    Any useful instructions would be so helpful.
    Thanks!
    Keith Helfrich

    Hi,
    You can get the where used list of the structures bu checking in query designer itself for where used list.
    Other option is : for both parts of your question you can get the infrmation from table RSZELTDIR.
    Here you will get the ELTUID . To find the relation between ELTUID and query technical name (COMPUID), check the my wiki below for exploring the relations below:

  • Where-used-list for syntax

    Hi Friends,
    can i get the program names from where-used-list for a particular syntax.
    for example, if i want to know what all are the program that used the syntax " append lines ". is it possible?. if so kindly explain me.
    Thanks.

    Vennila, Where Used utility is desinged got ABAP Object and not for the Language constructs hence you will not be able to use this Utility.
    I generally take the way what Avinash has suggested. This programs looks up all the matching progrms from selection screen and finds particular string in it, In addition RPCSOUR* is some table which also hold the source code for report type objects (never tried recently found this).

  • Where used list for Variable

    Hi ,
    I have a custom variable and want to know every query it has been used in.
    How can I find out?
    Metadata repository does not contain this info (checked already)
    Regards

    Hi,
    Method 1 :Right click on variable in Query Designer and find the where used list.
    Method 2 Please go to  SE16--> RSZGLOBV -->Enter the variable VNAM as 'Variable Name' ->Get the VARUNIID> Go to table RSZELTXREF --> Enter the values of VARUNIID in TELTUID --> Get the list of SELTUID --> Go to table RSZCOMPDIR --> Enter the values of SELTUID in COMPUID --> Get the list of COMPID -->COMPID is the list of queries.

  • Function Module where-used list does not find update rule programs

    We have function modules called in update rules. The where-used list in the function builder does not find the update rule programs.
    For example, function DATE_GET_WEEK is called in an update rule to InfoCube YCUBE001. The activated program name for this update rule is GP3PWI6PKM5Y3K75A370DIS8I77. When I goto SE37, enter the function DATE_GET_WEEK, click the where-used button, check the programs option and search. The system does not find the program GP3PWI6PKM5Y3K75A370DIS8I77.
    Without this search capability it is difficult to do an impact analysis of changing function modules. Does anyone know of a solution?

    hi,
    i think the reason is the code of update rules' generated program are stored line by line in table(rsaabap), update rules program itself stored in table rsupdrout, link with field codeid, another useful table is rsupdinfo which store infocube, infosource related.  other info may stored in some other rs* and rsa* tables.
    try to create following program in your system, and run, type in the function module name, and will display out the update rules program id, with additional useful info : which infoprovider, infosource, and detail info of the routine and infoobject in the update rule that using that function module. you may modify the program to have better display out list.
    hope this helps.
