Hi,

wrong forum? Or what does this have to do with "ABAP Performance and Tuning"?

However:

- Debugger Breakpoints: Scope your debugger session.

- Session Breakpoints: Scope is your logon session (all external modes of this logon session)

- External Breakpoints: Scope is all your logon sessions (for one user on one server)

Kind regards,

Hermann

external breakpoint : like name suggests these are external meaning these will get activated even for Non SAP Applcations (ofcourse these Applcations should call the breakpoint code, these are generally active for 2 hours. Set it thru Utilities - Setting - breakpints.

e.g. call from portal screen

session breakpoint : This breakpoint will be activated for call only within SAP system and its active till the User session is on.

e.g. SE38 execute
