Hello,

Is the Change pointer already active and you are trying to Debug or are you looking to activate the change pointer and send the IDOC??

Regards,
Vijay

Usually, the updates are done through an update task, so you should activate the Update Debugging (please search the forum for more information).

Hi,

I tried with Update debugger as well but still not triggering on Breakpoint.

but the debugger starts, no? Add the breakpoint from inside the update task, using "breakpoint at function module" MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_MATMAS. If it doesn't stop, it means it's not triggered. Add a breakpoint at general function modules CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE and CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE_LONG, and debug to see what's going on.
