Z-attributes in territory mgmt.

Question

Hello CRM experts,
in our new project I face the following problem.
I need to implement a z-assignment-block from a z-table to BP.
Some of these z-fields should be territory relevant.
I customized it in
spro->Customer Relationship Management->Master Data->Territory Management->Territory Attributes->Maintain Territory Attributes
and implemented the Badi CRM_TM_MASTER_DATA_NOTIFY_BP as well.
The problem is when changing the value of the z-field and save
the Badi Method IF_EX_CRM_TM_MASTER_NOTIFY_BP~IS_ATTR_ACTIVE_FOR_TM did't pass through.
I realized by debugging that z-attributes from z-tables won't be recorded in the table CRMD_TERRMAN_LOG
(see class CL_CRM_TERRMAN_LOG_API=>WRITE) just attributes from but000 or adressdata (see ZCL_CRM_TERRMAN_NOTIFY_REPOS=>LOG_BP_HEADER_CHANGES
and ZCL_CRM_TERRMAN_NOTIFY_REPOS=>LOG_BP_ADDRESS_CHANGES.
Any idea to record ?
Thanks in advance
Juergen

Hi,
If you need to trigger the BADI while saving the zblock values, you should ideally follow this steps. I had to approach this process to trigger some badi which we needed to hit upon clicking some button...
1. First find out the fields on change of which the BADI gets triggered .. check the standard transactions
2. Then find out the standard bol entity-attribute which has those fields
3. then while saving the zblock, add some code so that you change some dummy values in those standard entity which you have find out it step 1 and 2. (any single field modification will do, if its correct field)
4. then do a bol core modify and your badi will get triggered.
*generally the reason for badi trigger is change in some relevant fields which triggers the badi, so you have to change something in the standard entity level of those fields..you have to find out some fields which by changing won't create any issue with your process...
