Hi guys:

I need to registry in CDPOS the changes on a standard element data which doesn't have activated his change document checkbox. Are there anyway to change this ( enhancement ,etc ) or another way to do that (registry in CDPOS) ?

Thanks.

Javier.

Hello Javier,

Look for an exit or badi on the transaction your are talking about and look for FM for saving changes on documents, or try a direct insert on the table.

SAP documentation warns about changing the "Change Document" checkbox directly on data elements - if changed it will affect all tables which use fields based on the data element, not just the one you want. If any of the other tables have change objects, the logging will be done for them as well.

Documentation of change documents is in the SAP help topic:

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/EN/2a/fa015b493111d182b70000e829fbfe/frameset.htm">BC Extended Applications Function Library</a>

I believe that in some application areas, these flags can be turned on/off by customising settings.

If not, I would check where-used for the data element and then repair it. Not sure if the change object function modules etc need to be re-generated once a change like this is made.
