Tcode Analysis?

[KatiNonhebel]

This may be a rookie question, but how do you find out the purpose of a custom tcode?

Background: Global company, very poor documentation processes, dog eat dog place with 0 mentorship or development.

Started a new project in which the foreign country R/3 environment has hundreds of custom tcodes but with no documentation. I have to figure what the custom tcode does as well as if it can be replaced by standard tcodes.

Example: One that has analyzed already by another co-worker: "Creates outbound file to send invoices from region. Along with equipment details from table X. Uses data from tables X,X. Generates file at outbound directory with name X. Sends serial number, customer, invoice date, and company code."

All of this found just by being supplied Tcode.

I'm not sure at all how to find this out. I've gone into SE93, but that only gives me the program.

Excuse my ignorance. Just trying to learn and figure this out.

Thank you for visiting SAP Community to get answers to your questions. Since you're asking a question here for the first time, I recommend that you familiarize yourself with https://community.sap.com/resources/questions-and-answers(if you haven't already), as it provides tips for preparing questions that draw responses from our members. For example, you can outline what steps you took to find answers (and why they weren't helpful), share screenshots of what you've seen/done, and use a more descriptive subject line. The more details you provide, the more likely it is that members will be able to assist you.

Should you wish, you can revise your question by selecting Actions, then Edit (although once someone answers your question, you'll lose the ability to edit the question -- but if that happens, you can leave more details in a comment).

Finally, if you're hoping to connect with readers, please consider adding a picture to your profile. Here's how you do it:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F5JdUbyjfMA&list=PLpQebylHrdh5s3gwy-h6RtymfDpoz3vDS. By personalizing your profile with a photo of you, you encourage readers to respond.

Hello juanmaddox

The only way is to analyze the custom code underlying and figure out the functionality. There is no efficient way. However, there are standard tools to probably better your analysis like finding out the packages, similar t codes in SAP standard, BADI used etc. The below blog would be of use to you:

The other thing you could also do is to check the analysis for the T code usage in last 1-2 years. The below should help you for the same.

There after, reach out to the end users to check what is the purpose of the transaction code.

Thanks & regards,

Hi juanmaddox

Get functional inputs from functional guys based on that check the code or debugging only can help. by query below check and bucket the z developments by objects and proceed one by one and also as mentioned in comment do follow the links on Question and Answer session

  SELECT       e71~trkorr
             e71~pgmid
             e71~object
             e71~obj_name
             e71~lockflag
             e70~trfunction
             e70~trstatus
            e70~as4user
             e70~as4date
             e70~as4time
            e70~strkorr
*            e70~AS4TEXT
    FROM e070 AS e70 INNER JOIN e071 AS e71 ON e70~trkorr = e71~trkorr
                    INTO TABLE it_e7071t
                    WHERE    e70~trkorr   IN tr_reqst
                     AND e70~strkorr  IN request
         AND e70~as4user  IN username
         AND e70~as4date  IN date
         AND e71~object   IN object
         AND e71~obj_name IN obj_name.
