Who Updated the Memo field

I am trying to determine if it is possible to find out who updated a column field like the function ColumnHistory() shows the history.  I would like to see which user made the changes in the ColumnHistory().  Is it possible to do this?

Routines to log changes to data tend to make use of the AfterUpdate event.  However, this does not in itself mean that any change has been made to the values of the data.  You'll find an example of one which does so, however, as ChangedRecord.zip
in my public databases folder at:
https://onedrive.live.com/?cid=44CC60D7FEA42912&id=44CC60D7FEA42912!169
If you have difficulty opening the link copy its text (NB, not the link location) and paste it into your browser's address bar.
This little demo file calls the Windows API GetUserName function to return the current user's Windows login-in name, and includes code in two modules which determines (a) if data in a record has actually changed rather than simply been updated and (b) if data
will change, in order to get user confirmation to save a record.  The former would apply in your case.
In my demo it is the whole record which is examined for changes, not just a particular field, so some small modification of the code would be required to limit it to one field.  I can confirm that it does work with a memo field per se, though whether this
will be true in the case of fields containing very large amounts of text I can't honestly say without testing it.  You can easily do so by adding a memo field to the Contact table in my demo, and including a control bound to this in the form.  Then
paste in a very large block of text into one record via the form.  If it successfully detects the insertion as a change, then make a small amendment to the text and see if it detects that.  I see no reason why it shouldn't, but without empirical
evidence I wouldn't bet the farm on it.

  • The memo field in forms won't display text?

    I am using Firefox 33.1.1 on a WindowsXP Pro system and have been using FireFox for quite some time . . .
    Recently, I must have done something, I just don't know, but I can't seem to remedy the problem.
    I create and use a lot of forms. Standard <form></form> HTML forms.
    Whenever I pull up a form, I can no longer see any text as I type into the MEMO field. I also don't see any contents of the MEMO field when I recall a record fromn the database within the form.
    This is happening ONLY with the MEMO field.
    This very message I had to type in notepad and copy and paste it into this bug report form.( OMG - when I pasted this text into this form, I can see the text!! But still not in other forms)
    YET, the text is indeed in the form. This text will display when recalling a record to the webpage and displaying the memo field contents on the page.(Not in form)
    I have done all I can according to FireFox problem resolution suggestions including uninstalling and reinstalling a fresh pristeen copy of Firefox to a diff location on HD.
    I do NOT have this problem when I go into Windows IE. I know there is no problem with the form itself or database contents. This happens on ANY memo field at ANY website, not just mine.
    I cannot say if this began after an FF update or not. I feel it may be a simple fix. I may have hit a key or combination of keys that changed a setting causing this, but I dont know where.
    Any clues would be helpful.
    thanks

    Append the z fields to BAPI_TE_MARA and BAPI_TE_MARAX structures using append structures.
    Populate two structures for the fields in BAPI_TE_MARA and BAPI_TE_MARAX.
    To BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA, under EXTENSIONIN parameters, pass structure name as BAPI_TE_MARA and Value Part1, 2, 3, 4 with the filled structure info.

  • E72 does not sync all of the memo field in an outl...

    I was called at a customer last week to solve a Nokia e72 problem: when syncing with outlook, only part of the memo content of the outlook contact fields was synced.There was also no way telling which part would be synced: could be some piece from right in the middle.Can anybody tell me if there are limits to the memo field in the contacts on an E72, so that it prevents total syncing?

  • Query  to trace who updated the data

    query to trace who updated the data
    date
    and time
    and username

    ahh, ok - there's a few articles around that will assist.
    I suggest first
    you experiment with triggers to familiarise yourself with them:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/triggers.htm#CNCPT118
    this article here explains the process of putting in some audit processes using triggers:
    http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/9i/CompleteDataAudit.php
    it details creating the tables etc and then provides a procedure that will create the trigger text for you for each table you want to audit. it would be good to write your own trigger from scrath in order to learn and understand exactly what's happening, but it's up to you.

  • Update the embedded field

    we have following problem:
    class A has class B as embedded attribute.
    If we write:
    tx1: a = readA();
    tx2: a.b.setName("new Name"); makePersistent(a)
    the changes in field "name" will not be saved.
    If we write:
    tx2: a.b = new B("new Name"); makePersistent(a)
    the field "name" will be updated !
    What is wrong with a.b.setName("new Name"); ???

    Normally, if you move your update site, people who bookmarked it would also

    You could keep site.xml at the old location and have everything else moved.
    Make use of the <archive> element in site.xml to point to jar files at other
    locations.
    Even better, redirect from old site to new site, using your web server
    functionality.

  • Update the "remark" field in general data of a BP (using IDOC in LSMW)

    Hi,
    I have to create and udpate BP with comments in the general data. I have no problem to manage this field in creation mode. I only use the segment "E101BAPIAD_REM" from the "CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE_M02" Idoc basic type. I fill the following fields: "LANGU, LANGU_ISO, ADR_NOTES".
    However in update mode I don't success to update the value for the field "REMARK". I use the second segment "E101BAPIAD_REX" and i fill only field "ADR_NOTES" with value "X" and "UPDATEFLAG" with value "U".
    I tried several value and several cases but i failed each time. If anybody has already managed this data with IDOC I would be very interesting...
    regards,
    Fabrice Mouyebe.

    Hi Thirumala,
    thank you for your answer but you speak about the field "AddressGUID" of E101BUS_EI_ADDRESSREMARK but I haven't this field at this level. This field is linked to the segment "E101BUS_EI_BUPA_ADDRESS_KEY", isnt'it ?
    Effectively i have certainly a problem with the Address GUID. I have to test it because it doesn't work with only UPDATEFLAG at 'X' and CURRENT_TASK too.
    Thanks,
    fabrice.

  • BDOC's to update the custom fields in R/3 from the CRM sales order

    Dear All,
    I need a small help.
    My requirement is as follows.
    When ever a sales order is created in CRM, an outbound delivery will be automatically created in the R/3 system.
    There are some fields in the CRM sales order which are not there in the R/3 system.So I have to create these fields in the LIKP and LIPS tables in R/3 which is not a problem.
    But I have to copy these fields from CRM to the LIKP and LIPS tables in R/3 when ever a sales order is created and saved in CRM. (This should happen automatically)
    So could anyone tell me whether there are any BDOC’s available to update the sales order info in the LIKP and LIPS tables and also any BADI which can be trigger for this purpose.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards
    Shafath

    Hi,
    Thanks a lot. You have given a good solution.
    But a small correction.
    Sales Order is not transferred from CRM to R/3. The system is creating (automatically) a delivery in the r/3 system for the sales order created in CRM (Here we will not have the sales order in R/3), so we don’t have an entry in VBAK and VBAP tables.
    When we create a sales order in CRM and save , the delivery in R/3 is created and the sales order is not transferred to R/3.
    So while saving the sales order itself in CRM, I need to trigger a badi to update the LIKP and LIPS tables by calling a RFC (which needs to be developed in R/3).
    So I need a badi which triggers when the sales order is saved and which tells whether the sales order is saved without errors or not (because delivery in R/3 is created for only those orders which are created and saved without errors in CRM)  and returns the sales order number.
    It will be helpful if you can send some info on this.
    Any how thanks a lot for your quick response.
    Regards
    Shafath

  • Is it possible to update the comments field once receiving is done

    Hi All,
    Can anyone of You help on this.
    We have done the receiving against one PO. The material is receipt and delivered in the Inventory.
    User has enter in-correct details in the comment field (both at header and line level) during receiving.
    Now we need to update the comments section with some new commnets.
    Apart from backend/ database update, is it possible to update the comments section since receiving is already done. Please suggest some alternate option.
    Thanks
    Sujay

    Hi Sujay,
    You won't be able to update the comments once received.
    Alternate approach: Perform correction transactions to reverse all the receiving transactions and re-receive again entering correct comments.
    Thanks,
