• Message logs that document the checking and processing of a message within process management: see Displaying Message Logs.

• The tRFC log that documents the execution of the tRFC (transactional remote function call) used to transfer a message to external functions: see Displaying Transactional RFC Logs for Messages.

For information on how to access the message monitor, see Accessing the Message Monitor.

In the message monitor, you can call up a list of the existing logs for a process message. Depending on the importance of the data they contain (for example, errors or additional information), the logs are assigned to different log classes that are marked using different colors in the list.

From the list, you can branch to the individual logs. The system messages in the logs are also highlighted using different colors that indicate whether they provide information on an error, a warning or additional information.

By displaying the long text of the system messages, you can get more detailed information on the errors they report as well as hints as to how you can correct them.

If a process message is sent to one or more external functions, the system documents the execution of the corresponding tRFCs in a tRFC log. The tRFC log documents all tRFCs carried out in your system. It provides information on:

• The processing status of the RFC

The individual entries in the log can be identified using a number of additional criteria. You can find them in the corresponding destination-specific log of the process message. The following table lists the names of these fields in the tRFC log together with the corresponding fields in the message log:
