You can debug very easily if your program that you want to debug is a custom program. You can put an endless loop in the code somewhere.

WHILE SY-SUBRC = 0.

CHECK SY-SUBRC = 0.

ENDWHILE.

Now go to SM50, select the work process that is running the program. Click Program/Session->Program->Debugging, it will then open the debugger and you will be looping at your endless loop. Change the value of SY-SUBRC to get out of the loop and debug as normal.

Regards,

Rich HEilman
