When a table is configured there is an option to log the changes that are done to the information.

You can then check who mad the changes and when the change took place by running report RSVTPROT.

Select System Administration

Select Object Locking
Select the locked object and click the Unlock button

ABAP Runtime Analysis – variant setup

maxtmax — Mon, 08 Nov 2010 20:25:12 +0000

Runtime analysis can be used to quickly get to the bottom of which tables are referenced during a transaction/program/function-module call.

I like running SM30 over ST22 because you get a nicer presentation of what tables were hit. ST22 tends to bee too detailed in majority of my scenarios.

By default the report is initialized with the DEFAULT variant. This is limiting and will not give you as much information as you might want. Typically on a new system I set up my own variant that allows me to access more information.

Steps to set up your own variant:

Select the drop down option in the Variant selector panel
Click the green check-box on the next screen without changing the parameters of the Selection Criteria for Variants pop-up
You will be presented with two default Variants – DEFAULT and TMP; ignore those and click on the Create button
Type in the name and continue
Here’s the most important part of this trick. When you get to the main configuration page of the variant go to the third tab [Duratn/type] and in the Aggregation pick the None option.
Once done click Save as… button and you are ready to run your Analysis.

SAP: WE20 partner set up “Please enter a permitted partner number”

maxtmax — Fri, 23 Apr 2010 19:41:51 +0000

A new inbound IDOC failed to process with a “EDI: Partner profile not available” error.

I’ve attempted to set up a new partner but failed to do so due to the “Please enter a permitted partner number” error when using WE20 transaction and setting up a new LS partner.

A quick debugging session revealed that the program was checking a TBDLS table [Logical Systems].

After this I’ve simply used SPRO transaction to update the:

Spro – IMG – Basis Components – Application Link Enabling (ALE) - Sending and Receiving Systems – Logical Systems – Define Logical System

Add the new logical system and you will be able to set up the new partner now.
