Change documents for Application table

Former Member — Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:28:53 GMT

Hello,

I have created an Application type table, in which i want to track changes. The table is maintained only by users, from a z-transaction (parameter :SM30). i have created a change document object, through tcode SCDO. I noticed that in SCU3, we haven't activate the logging. is that affect the creation of change documents for my z-tcode, or is something else that i have to do in order to log the changes ?

Thanks in advance.

SCDO and SCU3 work on difference type data, SCU3 should be for customzing table and I think it doesn't need the change document.

The change document object is generated by transaction SCDO, after activing it the system generates a function module in order to store the modification in change document table (CDHDR and CDPOS), but it needs to call this fm

thanks max,

I have the same thought! so were should i do this call ??

The table can be changed only when an z-transaction executed, and it calls SM30.

thanks again

U can use the events for SM30, there's one before (01) and one after (02) saving the data to db

U can use one of these events where the fm can be called
