Process Chain Logs Display (SAP Library - Administrator Workbench)

Process Chain Logs Display

Use

You can check process chain runs in the log view of the process chain maintenance.

Functions

You arrive in the log view of a process chain either by using the Log View in the toolbar of the process chain maintenance or by Logs in the toolbar of the navigation area.

If you go to the log view, you need to choose a time frame first. You need to display this time frame for the chain runs.

In the left-hand area of the screen, information about the time of creating, changing, or activating as well as the chain runs is displayed. You choose the log view for a run by double-clicking on the respective row.

By using the Legend, you get information regarding the status of the processes and the links.

You can display processes, which have not been run yet, in the log view for a process chain. This depends on whether or not the chain has been changed since the last run. If you have not changed the chain since the run that needs to be checked, then the processes that have not been run are displayed in gray in the log view for this run. Also, the link for such processes is marked with dashes if the event has not yet been triggered. However, if the chain has been changed since the run that needs to be checked, then the processes that have not yet been run and the events that have not yet been triggered are not displayed at all in the log view for this run.

By using Display Messages in the context menu for a process, you can call up the log. The logs are displayed in the following dialog box for the tab pages Chain, Batch, and Process.

The tab page Chain contains information regarding the start and end of the process as well as the created instance.
The log for the job is displayed for the tab page Batch in the SAP List Viewer Grid Control. You arrive at the job overview for your job by using the pushbutton Batch Monitor.
The tab page Process contains the process-based messages.

This tab page is then displayed if the process type writes its own log or if the interfaces IF_RSPC_GET_LOG and IF_RSPC_CALL_MONITOR are implemented for the process type.

You can use Process Monitor to get to this monitor with processes (the loading process, for example) that have a special monitor attached.

If you want to call up another log for this chain, or if you want to refresh the log view, choose Go to ® Other Log or in the toolbar of the process chain maintenance or the navigation area.
