Configuration steps :

BD53 -> create reduced message type (use MATMAS as your reference for material master records). Select tables

BD52 -> specify fields to track (use fieldname KEY for new entries)

BD50 -> activate change pointers for new reduced message type

BD61 -> activate change ponter generally (only if not already done) Make sure if this is not already active that you deselect the default enteries in BD50 for the message types you don't care about

The view BDCPV will now contain change pointer entries for the master data that has change or been created

Use function modules

CHANGE_POINTERS_READ - read new unprocessed change pointers

CHANGE_POINTERS_STATUS_WRITE - mark change pointers as processed

Hope it helps.
