SAP TM Change logs

Hi All,
I am working on SAP transportation management (TM) system which uses NWBC. All end users access NWBC and perform various transactions like Create Booking, Change Booking etc.
Change logs are not being captured in any of the change tables (CDHDR and CDPOS). I browsed in google and came across concept called Context Log Changes for Webdynpro applications.
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/17/023e63ac50439e83d4ed8573df0938/content.htm?frameset=/en/47/af752005c92fe1e10000000a42189d/frameset.htm
I have executed the demo existing in my system and demo shows that the whatever changes being done by the users in NWBC can be captured using this context change logs.
We are looking to implement this for our project, but before that we have few queries.
1. Where do these context logs gets stored if i enable them?
2. Our TM system is being integrated with GRC system, so if the change logs gets recorded in change tables (CDHDR and CDPOS), GRC can read them.
3. Does this show any performance issues for our system if enabled?
Experts please suggest.
Thanks,
Sai.

Hi Sai,
Please try the standard change document function.
1.Set the change doucment flag in type definition.
2.The change object would be tracked.
3.The changes stored in CDHDR and CDPOS.
Best Regards
Clark Huang

  • SAP Report RSVTPROT: Evaluate Change Logs

    Is there a similar report that anyone knows of to evaluate change logs? A report where you can enter a user name or user range, and a range for table names?
    Or has anyone customized the SAP logic to do this?
    We have a very old customized program from this but looks like because of advancements in change log processing we are having a lot of new issues with it.
                         Thank-You.

    Hi,
    Perhaps you can write custom program to access directly table DBTABLOG which contains all records for table log (very huge table)
    Also check FM DBLOG_READ_TABLE for logic to access.

  • Change Log data into SAP BI

    Any best practices for getting change-log data similar to that captured in CDHDR/CDPOS tables into SAP BI? What options exist for tracking changes to sales orders or invoices into SAP BI without touching CDHDR/CDPOS tables?
    Thanks,
    Vinny Ahuja

    hi,
    you check weather that data source carried out delta loading or not by using
    RSA7 T-Code. In represents to sales or invoices, if that particular data source meant
    for delta loading into bw means it will show status green. by seeing this particular
    data source carried out delta loading in to bw system.
    if helpful provide points

  • Sales Orders Change Log question

    Hi All,
    I am currently working on a project that involves querying SAP Database to get custom reports via web browser, I've made a lot of advances and most of the site is ready but I'm missing just one item that I hope you could help me.
    Thing is I am working with the Sales Order change log and the problem comes one a user deletes a row. If I go to the change log inside SAP and see the differences a new record will be shown saying that row X was deleted and
    if I go to the database (ADOC and ADO1 tables) I don't have a way to see wich row was deleted.
    My way of doing this is to check for the number of rows on the current state of the sales order and check the same on the previous instance of the SO and see if a line was deleted. Then I would have to check row by row between instances what rows are there and what row is missing and store that info. I think this kind of approach will definitively kill the server.
    I was wondering if some one can give me a hint about how to approach this problem. Does any body know how SAP works on this area?
    I'm working with SAP2005A and SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Alejandro.-

    Hola Alejandro,
    Thanks for your answer, as I see it I'm doing exactly what you proposed but the problem comes with the following scenarios:
    a.- If I post a new SO with two lines I will have on the ADO1 table two records with the values 0 and 1 for each line respectively but if I delete the item on LineNum = 1 and then I add a new item, this last item will be also created with LineNum value = 1. This is not a complicated thing to do but the problem comes when the user is used to work with SOs with several items at detail level and is used to add and erase lines once in a while and as I see it it's very difficult for me to track those specific changes. There's also the fact that on the Log table a new instance is created every time the user hits the update button regardless if a modification was actually made or not. I mean I would know that a line was deleted or added but I would have to start comparing each field on each line of a sales order with it's previous instance to check what was actually added/deleted and I'm afraid that this may affect the server performance. I know that SAP does this without affecting to much the system resources and that is what I'm trying to find.
    I forgot the other scenario I was considering he he I will post again as soon as I remember it but I hope I'm explaining this ok (I'm not very good at explaining...) If not let me know and I'll try to explain again.
    I'm also working on trying to get another approach to see what comes up...
    Thanks for checking this thread, your answers are helpful.
    Regards.

  • HOW TO USE FUNCTION Deletion of Requests from the Change Log IN PRCSES CHAN

    Respected all
    i used Deletion of Requests from PSA from the prcess chain and found good results, now i have only one request at the psa and thus i am doing good space utililisation. but when i am using Deletion of Requests from the Change Log i am not getting any changes in the request of dso. kindly let me know how to use this 2nd function.
    thanks
    abhay

    Hi Mahodaya,
    As per SAp standards its good to delete the requestes that are no longer needed for the delta update and no longer used ffor inti from the change log table and the data is loaded already in to DSO.
    Goto RSPC
    Click on create New PC -> enter the PC name n long descp
    Next we need to define the start process for the PC.Maintain the start variant process.save n come back.
    for deletion of change log we have option in the Other BW Processes -> deletion of requestes from change log
    Once u select the option we get a dialoge box here we need to create the variant for the process enter the process variant n long descp. cick ok.
    Next in the maintenance screen for the deleting the request from change log table will appear.
    Enter the selection patterns to which the requestes should be deleted from the change log.
    In the maintenance screen, select one or more Data Store objects for which requests are to be deleted from the relevant change log tables under Data Store Object column and select theInfo Area of the corresponding Data Store Objects under Info Area
    If you select the first check box exclude selction pattern, this means that del of requests from change log table will be ignored.
    or
    We can delete the requests which are Older than N-number of days (or) date in the above screen. For this one, enter the number of days (or) date in the filed Older than .
    OR
    If we want to select the requests with a certain status then we can also do in the above screen. We can select the following status indicators from the above screen.
    Delete Successfully Updated Requests Only -This status will delete only requests which
    are successfully updated into corresponding Data Store objects.
    Delete Incorrect Requests that were not Updated - This status will delete only incorrect requests which are not successfully updated into the corresponding Data Store Objects.
    Delete Activation Requests only, No Load requests- This status will delete only the activation requests (requests that begin with ODSR_... ). No load requests are deleted.

  • How to use the change log in ODS to track Delta change?

    People say that historical data (like Delta change) in ODS can be tracked in the Change Log.  How to use the change log to track historic data?
    Thanks

    Kevin
    See if it helps
    Every ODS object is represented on the database by three transparent tables:
    Active data: A table containing the active data (A table)
    Activation queue: For saving ODS data records that are to be updated but that have not yet been activated. The data is deleted after the records have been activated.
    <b>Change log: Contains the change history for delta updating from the ODS Object into other data targets, such as ODS Objects or InfoCubes for example.</b>
    An exception is the transactional ODS object, which is only made up of the active data table.
    The tables containing active data are constructed according to the ODS object definition, meaning that key fields and data fields are specified when the ODS object is defined. Activation queue and change log are the same in the table’s structure. They have the request ID, package ID and the record number as a key.
    Data base structure changes

  • Error while Changing log level in Agentry 6.0.44.1

    Hi ,
    I am trying to change the log level from the Agentry Administration client, but i am getting the below error message.
    And it is showing any option to change the log levels for users. How can I change log level for users also.
    How can I resolve this error.
    Regards,
    Shyam

    Shyam,
    This is fixed or planned fixed in 6.0.46 Agentry Server (supposed to be available anytime soon in the Service Marketplace - it was submitted already to the SMP team). The fix was in SMP 2.3 and SMP 3.0 but it was ported back to the Agentry 6.0.X release. If you have no access to the Agentry 6.0.X patches this means that your SAP License is preventing you from downloading it. You may need to contact the SAP CIC (customer interaction center) group.
    Or you can do the manual setup for a workaround for now.
    SAP KBA article: 2048202 - AgentryGUI does not allow to change log settings - Not all setttings were successfully changed.

  • How to find out the top ten Change log tables in BW

    I want to know the top ten change log tables in terms of size. Do we have a SAP standard table where we have the following fields : "changlog table name", "number of records" field or "data in size" field.
    Regards,
    Prashant M J

    Hi,
    Click on change log table in the ODS/DSO at the top you see the name as /bic* which is the name of the database table which could also be seen at SE11.
    If you wana see the requests in this change log use rstsodsrequest
    and if you wana see the size in terms of kb, mb DB02 or st04
    use the table name /bic* and click on tables and indexes option in history tab
    DB02 tells you the sizes of the tables present on database. Incase you are not able to your basis team would help you in that
    Thanks and regards

  • Activation of ODS fails: Change-Log Request ODSR_... does not exist in ODS

    Hello Experts,
    I have a problem loading in an ODS object in Release BW 3.5. This load is in parallel to loading in a Cube and InfoObjects from 10 different SAP sources monthly.
    Everytime, I load data, Activation fails. The Error message is "Change-Log Request ODSR_... does not exist in ODS ..." These Requests (30 requests) are very old starting with the Go-Live date of the application in 2005. If I search for the first Request in Reconstruct, a request without a InfoPackage-Name is found and if I reconstruct the request, all other new loaded Request are activated and everything is fine. The next month, the same error appears, but without the one old request in the list reconstructed the month before of course.
    A few months before I had to repair loading and deleted also requests in the ODS. Then I realized my mistake, that reconstruction is not possible, because the request was gone in the reconstruction list. So I searched for the PSA Request in the ODS reconstruction list, found the requests and reconstructed these. Could this be the reason for my current problem?
    But how can I stop this error? Reconstructing all of the requests did not work, because one request says, no active update rules exist for this request. So I stopped reconstructing every request of the long list.
    Please help me, I could not find any helpful information until now ...
    Many thanks in advance,
    Hannes

    Hi,
    For the old requests that you don't want and that are not valid, goto the monitor for those and mark them red. After that you won't face any problems while activating the new requests.
    The reason this is happening is that during activation BW thinks that these old requests are valid as they are green and tries to activate them as they are in squence. When it dosen't find them then it gives the error. If you mark them red, they are ignored and the next request is taken into consideration.
    Cheers,
    Kedar

  • Change Log issues - Post Upgrade

    Hi Experts,
    We are in the process of Upgrading BW from 3.X to BI 7. As part of this we copied our existing Production system into the sand box and basis did the technical upgrade on the same (Sand Box). Later we ran some post upgrade Jobs as part of the SAP defined Upgrade Process.
    1) But after the upgrade i can notice that most of the ODS objects, doesn't have 'Change Log' table in the 'Information (Log/Status)' screen.
    2) Even when i try to view the change log content in Manage screen, it gives me a pop up to enter the change log table, instead of directly taking me to the selection screen.
    3) When i try to activate a request, even that fails with an SQL error 'SAPSQL_EMPTY_TABNAME'.
    Is there any process that has to be run to link the Older version change log tables to the corresponding ODSs after Upgrade?
    Has anyone come accross similar issues? If yes, how was it solved? All suggestions are invited.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Jay

    HI JayaPrasad,
    Chek the note : 1059171 which is related to Change log,
    I too faced this issue when upgraded to Bi7.0 on SP12, but as soon as SP13 is installed the issue is solved, so I suggest to go for SP 13 for upgrading to Bi7.0.

  • Change logs not working for manual update modify/delete statements.

    Hi experts,
                     My requirement is to display the change logs for a few custom z tables.The log data changes is selected in technical settings of the table.When any changes are made to the table using sm30 the changes are logged.
    My requirement also displays an alv grid which allows the users to edit/insert/delete   entries in the table.
    In this case the change logs are not getting recorded(ie whenever the user manually updates or inserts a row into the table the change docs are not getting stored).
    My code works like this,
    Whenever the user chooses a custom table and selects the display change log button i transter the control of my abap program to the standard  rsvtprot program(sap std. pgm to display change logs).
    sample code:
    elseif sscrfields-ucomm eq c_chgdoc.
        refresh:r_seltab.
        clear:r_seltab.
        r_seltab-sign   = 'I'.
        r_seltab-option = 'EQ'.
        r_seltab-low      = w_tab.
        append r_seltab.
    Call the sap standard program rsvtprot via selection screen
    by passing the table name and display grid parameters.
        submit rsvtprot via selection-screen
                          with cusobj   in r_seltab
                          with alv_grid eq c_x
                          and return.
    Is there any way by which i can extend the change logs functionality for the changes made using the alv grid?
    Please help me out.

    Hi Anuraag,
    In TM you should open the transaction /SCMTMS/ZONE. Here you select the zone you would like to modify and you execute the changes you would like to make.

  • What is the impact - Activating Change Logs for Material Classification Dta

    To activate Change Logs for Material Classification Data I must first set the flag for "Multiple Objs Allowed" for the Class Type 001 Material Class. I am curious of what the impact of setting this flag will be. Also, is there a way to measure the DASD impact of activating the Change logging for this data.
    Thankyou
    Kevin

    In addition to the performance impact the process of turning on Change Logs for Classification data will convert the tables KSSK and AUSP to use an internal SAP number as a key instead of the Material number. This will cause problems for any custom programs that access those files directly and expect the material number to be the key. This file conversion occurs during the execution of program RCCLUKA2 which is used to Flag the change logs for existing records. This can be reversed by running report RMCLINOB. Because of the above impact we decided here to NOT implement this change in production.

  • How do we chcek change Logs for any stndrd transaction

    Hi gurus,
    Are there any tables to check change Logs for any SAp standard t-code ?
    Thanks
    Kylie

    ALex ,
    For eg :if its a t-code related to Purchasing : then Purchase Order and it's corresponding item level details are retrieved.
    But i m thinking in a different way: i need to check LOGS of a t-code which might have a transport request
    following such a transport request i can get the USER details who migrtaed the changes of t-code (for eg:ME23n)
    from SAP QA to SAP PROD.
    Thanx

    Thanks in Advance.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi
    The table u mentioned V_T007k  is not a transparent table
    .its a view only for views u cant track changes.
    But only for transparent tables u can only track changes thru SCU3
    Also u can find the changes in a table from SAP TABLE
    CDHDR and CDPOS.
    if helpful reward me points.
