external breakpoint : like name suggests these are external meaning these will get activated even for Non SAP Applcations (ofcourse these Applcations should call the breakpoint code, these are generally active for 2 hours. Set it thru Utilities - Setting - breakpints.

e.g. call from portal screen

session breakpoint : This breakpoint will be activated for call only within SAP system and its active till the User session is on.

e.g. SE38 execute

Hi,

wrong forum? Or what does this have to do with "ABAP Performance and Tuning"?

However:

- Debugger Breakpoints: Scope your debugger session.

- Session Breakpoints: Scope is your logon session (all external modes of this logon session)

- External Breakpoints: Scope is all your logon sessions (for one user on one server)

Kind regards,

Hermann
