Use

There can be many reasons why an update is canceled (Error status in the overview). The problem often exists for a very short time only; in this case, the update records can be processed manually. If the problem is of a more serious nature, you have to analyze it further.

See also Analyzing and Correcting Update Errors.

Procedure

  1. In the "Update Requests" screen, choose the update record you want to process. Either double-click on it, or choose the This graphic is explained in the accompanying text Modules button. This takes you to the overview screen of the update modules for this update request.
  2. Choose Update records ® Debugging or the button This graphic is explained in the accompanying text to analyze a canceled update in the ABAP debugger. Further information can be found in the Structure linkDebugger documentation.

You can also correct the errors in an update record using the ABAP debugging function. To activate and deactivate the update debugging function choose Settings ® Update debugging on/off.

In both cases, the debugger stops at the start of the update module called up by the transaction.

Note

Authorizations: in order to use the debugging function, you require the update authorization for the authorization object System authorizations (S_ADMI_FCD) as well as the ABAP authorization for debugging in the ABAP Development Workbench (S_DEVELOP).
