Function documentation Log for Master Data (CA-AUD) Locate the document in its SAP Library structure

Use

If you execute the various programs, the system creates logs in list form. If the programs are executed in the background, the logs are output using spool requests.

These logs provide the user with information about, for example, which audit components were selected or how many audit components were processed.

Integration

For the output in the background, print output is used.

Prerequisites

The logs are output directly after preprocessing, the archiving run and the deletion run.

Features

The system creates different logs for each of the three archiving steps.

To display the selection criteria, you may have to choose the selection cover sheet in the spool settings.

Preprocessing Log

On the selection screen, you can choose between a summarized and a detailed log.

The system displays the following information:

·        Selection criteria

·        Number of hits found on the basis of the selection criteria

·        Number of selected audit components for which the status Archived can be set

Archiving Log

On the selection screen, you can choose between a summarized and a detailed log.

In the summarized log, the system displays the following information:

·        Selection criteria

·        Key of the archive file and number of the archiving run

·        Statistical values for the archived database tables

·        Number of audit components to be archived

Deletion Log

On the selection screen, you can choose between a summarized and a detailed log.

The system displays the following information:

·        Test mode indicator or production mode indicator

·        Keys of the archived files

·        Number of deleted objects

·        Number of deleted records for each relevant database table

 

 

In the detailed log, the system displays the following additional information:

·        External key of the audit component

·        Success or error messages

Note

You can only select the detailed log for small quantities of data, for example, in test mode for only a few objects. Otherwise the program may terminate due to memory overflow.

 

Activities

You must maintain the relevant spool parameters before executing a program.

The log is created automatically by the system after the program has been executed.

You can display the log using the job overview and by choosing Display Spool List ® Display Contents.
