Automatic integration of Change Documents in managed RAP BO not supported on Public Cloud

[DanielSchneider]

Hi community,

I've used change documents in RAP before, but I needed to handle it within an additional save method. I just realized (must be quite new) that there is now a more automatic integration possible explained here:
https://help.sap.com/docs/abap-cloud/abap-rap/integrating-change-documents?locale=en-US

I tried using this in my RAP behaviour definition, but I am getting a syntax error for the following statement:

changedocuments master ( <id_of_the_chdoc_obj> )

It states that "changedocuments" is not supported with the current ABAP release. I am working on a Public Cloud system. I'm wondering on which release this is working (maybe ABAP Platform on BTP?). This would be one of the first things I encounter, which is supported over there but not on public cloud.

Can someone confirm this? It would also be great to know if this will also be available for Public Cloud.

Thanks in advance!
Daniel

Hello,

there is a roadmap item "Change Documents for RAP BO": https://help.sap.com/docs/abap-cross-product/roadmap-info/reuse-services-and-libraries

But I have to say the help page you linked already sounds like the documentation for that feature.

Regards,
Patrick

The documentation on SAP Help Portal only applies to SAP S/4HANA (on-prem), but not for public Cloud systems. It's likely that the change documents via API consumption will also be released for public Cloud with 2508. The roadmap mentions 2602, and as far as I understand, this refers to the full integration, including UI.
