Hi

It is designed to master data distribution (see this [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/12/83e03c19758e71e10000000a114084/content.htm]) but sometimes I have used it to filter critical changes in some organizations. Think that in tables CDHDR/CDPOS you have a huge volume of data. You can create your own pointer and filter it and create your/their own control tools.

I hope this helps you

Regards

Eduardo
