Hi,

I would like to know

1) whether change pointer is at <b>table object level</b>? or can it be controlled additionally by <b>message type</b> also.?

Hi!

I don't get your question, but with transaction BD50 you can (de-) activate whole change pointers on message level and with transaction BD52 you can define on field level, for which object the pointer should be triggered.

Christian

Hi Christian,

Thanks for u r reply.

my question is whether change pointers are controlled by tables like cdhdr and cdpos (or) is there any alternative to control change pointers by message controls.

Hi Ratna!

Change pointers are stored in tables BDCP and BDCPS (or BDCP2 in case of high-performance setting) - like CDHDR and CDPOS for change documents (but this is not a controlling table!).

Controlling of change pointers is done with the transactions mentioned above. In addition exists a general flag (client dependent): change pointers active.

Christian
