Create a change pointer

[Former Member]

Hi everybody.

I need to throw a change pointer when a equipment is modified (Table EQUI). I´d like to throw this change pointer when the user change the status of this object (Tabla JEST, field STAT). The problem is that in transaction BD52 I can´t find an adecuate entry and when the user only modifies this status the change pointer is not created. How could I create this change pointer when this field is modified? Exist any FM to create a change pointer or only is possible by customizing?

Thanks a lot.

Hi,

Check the check box in Further characteristics tab of the data element ( se11>enter data element>Further characteristics tab) for change document. It should be checked.

Thanks,

The check box is not checked.... That means the change pointer can´t be created when this field is modified??

Thanks a lot

The first step would be to check if change document is ticked for the data element .

Next you will have to activate change pointers for your message type using bd50.

Finally using bd52 you can speicfy the fields under the message type for which change pointers need to be created

Hi I have to do somethin similar, How did you finally do it? Because I can not see how to link the Equipment with the status in BD52, because the field that link the table EQUI and JEST is the object number.

Thanks and Regards
