User ID which used debug function

[vikas_sehra2]

Dear Team

Business clients want to know, which User ID has used Debug function in Production system.

Is there any audit transaction or other method to know that which ID used debug.

Please suggest.

Change made to the value of a field while in debug are logged in the system log - as is "go to line".

But the ability to do debug in production with change should be strictly controlled. In order to debug and make changes in production you should have a specific role; this role should only be added as needed and removed after it is no longer needed. The history of role assignment is stored in the change documents accessible from SU01.

If you are just wishing to monitor debug activity in general - then so long as write access is denied - there is no way. Except as described above. I'm not convinced that your business client would or should be interested in display only debug access. I've debugged productive systems display only in validated, gxp relevant systems without issue. It's routine. Change access requires signatures!

Hi Matthew Billingham

I am convinced with your comment that debug should be restricted. This is a new client for me and we are working in the same.

But, as of now several users have debug authorization, so thats the reason, client wants to check previous history.

Is there any way, that we can get the details of user Id who used debug function.

Debug access does not have to be restricted. It isn't (usually) necessary.

Debug access with change must be restricted.

Hi Vikas,

you can check in transaction SM21.

Column User has the SAP Username and in Column Message Text you see what happened.

Best regards,

Hi Florian

Yes, SM21 screen shot above in good for us.

- Is there any setting required in SM21 to get the ALV layout as we get unicode display and we have to click and drill down to get the Debugger word.

That will be very tedious.

- SM21 is giving data only when there is an update in Debug, no log is generated if the debug function is selected but no change/update is done.

Reverse engineer SM21 to find out what file(s) it is reading to produce the output, write your own program.

Events logged in the system log can be found in the table TSL1T:

A1	8	'C debugging activated'
A2	3	'Goto ABAP Debugger: &9&9&9&9'
A2	6	'A manually caught process was stopped from within the Debugger (&A)'
A2	8	'DB &8 executed on explicit request from the debugger'
CU	K	'C debugging activated'
CU	M	'Jump to ABAP Debugger: &A'
CU	N	'A manually caught process was stopped from within the Debugger (&A)'
CU	O	'Explicit database commit or rollback from debugger &A'
CU	P	'Non-exclusive debugging session started'
IC	4	'Debugging of &A created for URL &B'
IC	5	'Debugging of &A deleted for URL &B'
IC	J	'Debugging entry was created by User &A for requirements of User &B.'
IC	K	'Debugging entry was deleted by User &A for requirements of User &B.'
R0	L	'Program &9&9&9&9&4 set manually to debug mode by user &9&3'
R0	X	'An update request was carried out in debugging mode'
R1	X	'Debugging session of user/mode &A/&B reset'
R6	H	'VM &a was moved to the debug mode<br>'

Thank You

Table TSL1T does not provides User ID, date time. Our requirement is to check the details for the user ID
