Is possible to keep a change log on a z table

Hi..
I made a z table which has a charge out rate and other details. This is updated via table maintenance view by the user.
I want to know whther it is possible to get a change log, for example if the user changed the charge out rate at a particular date, to get the date, name of the user logged in and say the price it was chnaged to and the earlier price which was thr..
If the price change details cannot be taken, is it atleast possible to get the date the change was made and the user name..
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
If you maintain your z-table in ABAP Dictionary (SE11), via the menu Go to ->Technical Settings, you have a checkbox 'Log data changes' down left. F1 on this checkbox gives you following explanation:
                                                                                "Log data changes
The logging flag defines whether changes to the data records of a table
    should be logged. If logging is activated, every change (with UPDATE,
    DELETE) to an existing data record by a user or an application program
    is recorded in a log table in the database.
Note: Activating logging slows down accesses that change the table.
    First of all, a record must be written in the log table for each change.
    Secondly, many users access this log table in parallel. This could cause
    lock situations even though the users are working with different
    application tables.
Dependencies
Logging only takes place if parameter rec/client in the system profile
    is set correctly. Setting the flag on its own does not cause the table
    changes to be logged.
The existing logs can be displayed with Transaction Table history
    (SCU3).        "
So don't forget: activating this checkbox will only help if you also activate parameter rec/client on system level.
Hope this helps,
Ioana

Change logs not available for tables

Hi Experts,
Is there any change logs available for the tables PCEC, FTXP, T030
We need to add logs so that we can keep track of the changes.
Please let me know if someone knows the solution.
Regards,
Srinivas

Dear Srinivas,
Go to SE11 and key in your table, then select Display.
In the top, you will be able to see Technical Settings Button. click on it.
It will show you the technical details for that table.
There will be an indicator at the bottom LOG DATA CHANGES.
If this indicator has been set, then only the changes will be recorded.
For change log, you shall make use of the transaction SCU3.
AUT10 shall also be used.
thank you

Change Log For CU60 ( Variant Table )

Hi All,
It has been found that if any entry is added/deleted/modified from a Variant Table (Transaction CU60), no
change log is found through any standard transaction.
We even tried using Transaction AUT10,Table CDHDR/CDPOS but requirement not met.
Kindly advise on the solution.
Thanks
Stuti

Hi Stuti,
Why dont you try using change number, as i remember when we go to CU60 there is option to key in change number.
and i hope using change number it will capture history.
try out and come back.

Change Logs for condition record

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to see the Change logs of condition records ?
Regards,
Venkata Prasanna.R

Condition tables do not have change logs.
But you can define that a table log is written.
You do that in SE11
Enter your conditon table, click change, then click the technical settings button and set the indicator to log data changes

Change logs for Shopping cart

Hi,
Is it possible to get the change logs for a shopping cart in SRM as to who deleted a line item after approval? We are in the SRM 4 version ( classic scenario).
The problem is that the batch job user seems to be coming up in the last update for the shopping cart and the backend PO is deleted with the RFC user name.
Are there any tables in SRM where the change is logged? I checked CDHDR/CDPOS tables but it is difficult to get the logs for the shopping cart especially for the deleted action.
Any clues/ideas would be appreciated.
Regards,
Rajesh

Hi
expand the shopping cart
in the right top corner you can see
Display Changes
shopping cart might be deleted by BATCHRFC
if the BUYER deleted a PO and the status will be updated in the shopping cart by BATCHRFC user.

Configure the Change Log for the activity

Hi to all,
I would like to know if it is possible to configure the "change log" for the activity.
Thanks in advanced,
Matte

Carlos,
Can you be more specific on the term 'Configure'. Change log is automatically generated by SBO. The only thing you can change is the numbers of Historical instances of the log
Administration > System Initialization > General Settings.......Services Tab...History or Log Settings. Be default it is 99 instances.

Change logs for Z table.

Hi All,
I am trying to fetch the old value and new value for the z table field.Change log is activated for the Z table. but i dont know how to fetch the change logs.
SCU3 is the standard transaction to see the change logs for all the tables.
Is there any table where the change logs values are maintained?
Does anyone know how to get the change log value?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Amruta.

Hello,
If for a specific set of tables no change documents are triggered by SAP you can always setup your own Change Document Object with transaction SCDO.
Of course you need to be careful with this transactions (how big is the table data, how many changes, etc...).
Table logging is something else, they are stored in table DBTABLOG and can be analysed via SCU3.
For table logging you need extra system parameters to be set, they are explained in SAP Note:
Note 1916 - Logging table changes in R/3
Pay attention with table logging because a lot of tables are logged in DBTABLOG once you activate the parameter, this can have a major impact on performance.
To have an idea what other tables will be logged, check tcode SE16 on table DD09L and put an 'X' in field PROTOKOLL, result will be thousands of tables.
In your specific scenario I think it is best you go for the change documents with SCDO.

Extracting HR Change Log Data to BW

Hi Guru's,
does anybody know how to extract data from the HR change log (among others, cluster table PCL4)? I found two function modules HR_INFOTYPE_LOG_GET_LIST and HR_INFOTYPE_LOG_GET_DETAIL
that should be giving the data in the correct format.
Has anybody ever used these Function modules for (delta) extraction to BW?
Or are there other ways to extract this type of data?
I already got some pointers from CSM Reddy in a previous posting:
http://help.sap.com/bp_biv170/html/Bw.htm
http://help.sap.com/bp_biv235/BI_EN/html/bw.htm
But they don't seem to work any more.
Best regards,
Arno

Those links you gave didn't work for me . . .
I have toyed with using those function modules in the past. I was trying to solve an issue I had: With heavy customization on 0EMPLOYEE, it took forever to extract the data for that infoobject as we had more than 10 extractors . . .
I no longer have access to the BI system, but I used one of the function modules you mentioned and loaded it into a DSO. From there, I used the DSO as a filter for my 0EMPLOYEE extractors. Using some ABAP, I passed to the extractors a list of employees who had data change in the previous day and extracted all of their information (should extract all in that case to properly get the begda and endda for the master data).
It had the potential to really speed things up but I never got to finish so I've never seen it in a production environment. Hopefully this helps . . .

Change Log/Delete PSA

Hi Gurus, I am on 3.5. When I go to RSA1, then to PSA. Select a a request, right click and select "Delete PSA Data". Why does it say "PSA / Change Log". Does it mean, I am deleting Change Log data too?

Bigtoja,
That may happen in case of ODS. For ODS change log data and PSA (for subsequent target from this ODS) are stored in the same table (change-log of the ODS table) . Those data are identified in the same table as "ODSR" for change log entries and "REQU" for PSA entries.
Hope this helps!

Creating Change Log For Transaction Code

Hi All,
I used to the transaction code SCDO to create the change log for a Z table which I have created to maintain the data.
User can run the transaction code for the Maitence View of Ztable and can make the entry.
Now I have created a change FM ZTABLE_WRITE_DOCUMENT using ZCDO. I would like to know how to link this to a transaction code so that any changes done to the table contents will be recorded.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagaraj Kalbavi

Hi Bala,
In which program, you mean to say table Maitenance Generator program. I feel this has to be done in transaction code AUT01. But I am not sure, I just need a glance on it.
Thanks & Regards,

What do the Request Nos in Change Log table mean?

Hi,
I'm checking the change log tables of some ODSs. In the "Request" column, there are requests starting with ODSR* and REQU. These numbers are the same as the ones seen in the Manage screen under the "PSA Request Number" and "Request Number" cols respectively. I want to know, when does data come under the ODSR requests and when does it come under the REQU* requests.
BW version: 3.5

Hi,
The changelog of the ods is actually the PSA for the export datasource.That may happen in case of ODS. For ODS change log data and PSA (for subsequent target from this ODS) are stored in the same table (change-log of the ODS table) . Those data are identified in the same table as "ODSR" for change log entries and "REQU" for PSA entries.
Hope it helps..

My firefox icon disappears into my applications folder each time I log out. Is it possible to keep the icon on the bottom of my screen? Thank you.

Hello, My Firefox icon disappears into my applications folder each time I log out. Is it possible to keep it at the bottom of my screen (it used to stay there)?

Does that mean you have to sign out of creative cloud on one machine and sign back in to creative cloud on the other machine to be able to use it?
No. You can be signed in to the Cloud (using the same Adobe ID) on two separate computers at the same time.
If you want to activate the Cloud on a 3rd machine then you need to sign out of one of the other computers.
Your issue on your home computer is unlikely to be related to signing in.
Mac or Windows at home? Which operating system?
