Parameter: AUDIT_OBJECT_DOMAIN

Definition

The list of audit domains that are enabled and define the categories of data objects that can be audited to object snapshots

Description and Use

As of SP 2, this system parameter defines the list of audit domains that are enabled. It customizes the data objects that can be audited to object snapshots. It enables choosing the precise set of auditable objects in the SAP CC Core Server system.

When you select an audit domain, the SAP CC system records the corresponding object snapshots when it executes an object creation, modification, or deletion that is requested by an SAP CC user.

When the Object Snapshot Recording feature is enabled in the system, you use this parameter to fine configure its functions and:

  • target the object snapshots only to the key data objects of your business and technical requirements
  • get clarity when inspecting the audit data recordings that does not include unwanted information
  • save database storage and gain performance by excluding some typical objects

SAP CC defines the following audit domains and corresponding auditable objects:

An immediate change is possible but is temporary. When it is relevant, change the permanent settings used by the SAP CC Core Server system when it restarts.

You can use a default value to reset the runtime value or the restart value (persistent) in the Admin+ user interface.

Note

A default value is part of the factory settings of the SAP CC Core Server systems. It differs from the original value set during the installation or after the Customizing activities.

In Admin+, you can reset a parameter value to this default value, but it is not recommended:

  • This value may differ from the original value set during the installation of your SAP CC system.
  • Note that it may also differ from the value defined by the implementation project team and set during the Implementation Phase of the integration project.
Verify the values in your running SAP CC systems before to use the reset command.
