Creating and Displaying Overview and Statistics

With the help of an overview or a set of statistics, you can get an aggregated picture of the short dumps stored in the ABAP system.

Note For those users who do not have authorization for the cross-client dump analysis, the ABAP dump analysis is client-specific. This means that the dump selection and the statistics refer solely to short dumps from runtime errors that have occurred in the client you are logged on to.

Overview

You create an overview in order to get a list of all runtime errors that have occurred. For each listed runtime error, you can see how often it has occurred. In addition, from the overview you can display a list of the corresponding short dumps.

You have the following options for creating an overview:

In the main menu, choose Goto Overview F5 or
Select the icon from the toolbar.
On the initial screen, you can define selection criteria to limit the total number of stored short dumps for the overview operation.

The overview itself is displayed as an accumulated list of all short dumps that match the selection criteria; they are grouped according to category and name of the runtime errors.

Note From the overview screen, you can open the list of the corresponding short dump by double-clicking the name of the runtime errror. From here you can also double-click the short dump in question to open the corresponding long text.

Statistics

You can create a statistics list in order to determine the number of short dumps that are stored in an ABAP system. You can use the following specifications to do this:

Total number of short dumps for the current day or previous day
Total number of short dumps in the respective system
Total number of short dumps that were exempt from deletion during the reorganization runs
Memory size of table SNAP (runtine error)

In addition, you can display a list of the corresponding short dumps from here.

You have the following options for creating a statistics list:

From the main menu, choose Goto Statistics F6 or
Select the icon from the toolbar.
The statistics are displayed as a table and the numbers found are listed.
Choose the option for which you want to display more details.
From the toolbar, select the icon to open the list of the selected runtime errors.
Note From here you can also double-click the respective runtime error to open the individual long text of the error.
