Prerequisites

In order to use the logpoint functionality, you need in the relevant system:

  • As a minimum, the display authorization for object S_DEVELOP with activity: 03 to be able to launch the ABAP source editor for displaying the ABAP source code.
  • The authorization for object S_DYNLGPTS for using the basic logpoint functionality with the value BASIC of the authorization field OBJNAME and the values LOGPTS and RESULT for the filed OBJTYPE.

    This basic privilege enables you to...

    • Create logpoints
    • Change, activate, deactivate, or delete logpoints
    • Access log entries (results).
  • An additional authorization for object S_DYNLGPTS that provides you with advanced logging functionality, including...
    • Switching on / off traces (value TRACING for field OBJNAME)
    • Analyzing ABAP variables (value VARIABLES for field OBJNAME)

More: Read the documentation for Authorization Object S_DYNLGPTS for Logpoints.

Note You can use the advanced logging functionality if you already have the corresponding authorizations for the ABAP Debugger or for the transaction ST05.
