SAP Gateway Tracing Tools

The SAP Gateway provides tracing tools (transaction code: /IWFND/TRACES) to trace on a particular user for both performance and payload.

Performance trace enables you to monitor performance at service call level for both the SAP Business Suite and the SAP Gateway. Payload trace enables you to monitor the service calls with request and response data, and to replay and simulate the service calls without accessing the application from the mobile client.

Traces display detailed request and response data coming into the SAP Gateway. Traces are active for only a short time, and are purged on a regular basis.

With this tool, you can verify the exact content of the request header and body that is sent from the mobile device, and also check the response from the SAP Gateway.

For information about how to configure and activate the payload trace tool, see Tracing Tools: Configuration in the SAP Gateway Technical Operations Guide.
