Displaying Session Logs
Use
The batch input system keeps a detailed log of each session that is processed. The log contains not only progress messages from the batch input system itself, but also error messages from the transactions that are processed.
To analyze an error in a session, you should start by checking the session log for relevant messages.
A session log is kept only if the session was generated with the KEEP option or if the session is aborted or contains an error.
Prerequisites
Start the batch input management tool: Select System
® Service ® Batch input ® Sessions or Logs. Alternate: Enter transaction SM35P. You can display logs from the standard session overview, or from a special separate transaction for logs. The log functionality is in each case the same.Procedure
To display a log, mark a session and choose Log from the tool bar.
A session log contains any error messages issued by transactions in the session. It also includes batch input error messages reporting any problems in running transactions, together with the transaction and screen at which the problem occurred. Finally, a log contains a set of summary statistics.
