Analyzing Canceled UpdatesLocate this document in the navigation structure

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.

Procedure
  1. On the Update Requests screen, choose the update record you want to process. Either double-click on it, or choose the ModulesUpdate Modules button. This takes you to the overview screen of the update modules for this update request.

  2. Choose Start of the navigation path Update records  Next navigation step Debugging End of the navigation path or the button Debugging to analyze a canceled update in the ABAP debugger.

You can also correct the errors in an update record using the ABAP debugging function. To activate or deactivate update debugging choose Start of the navigation path Settings Next navigation step Update Debugging On/Off End of the navigation path. In both cases, the ABAP debugger stops at the start of the update module called up by the transaction.

Authorizations

To use the debugging function you require update authorization for authorization object system authorizations (S_ADMI_FCD), and ABAP authorization for debugging ABAP Workbench (S_DEVELOP).
