Hello Srinivas,

You just analyse the change history data from withiin OB52 T code it self. Go to OB52 --> Menu Utilities > Change logs.

Just enter a start data and an end date then click execute button.

It is even possible to include archived logs, but this is very time consuming.

I hope it helps!

Thanks & Regards,

Hello Nivas,

The data transaction OB52 is based on the view
    V_T001B - Posting Periods: Specify Time Intervals

which in turn is based on the data in the table
    T001B - Posting periods allowed

The table T001B has the option of logging data changes. You can check
if this option is set on your system as follows:
  Transaction: SE12
    -> Enter T001B in the 'Object name' text box
      -> Select the 'Tables' radio button
        -> Click on the 'Display' button
          -> Click on the 'Technical settings' button
            -> Check if the 'Log data changes' flag (*DD09V-PROTOKOLL)
               has been selected

Setting this flag marks that entries of this table should be logged.
Please note that the flag 'Log data changes' alone does not cause the
table changes to be logged. The SAP system must be started with a
profile containing the parameter rec/client. The existing logs can be
displayed with Transaction Table history (SCU3).

Hi Nivas,

If you have more than one application server, you need to swich on logging on each application server.

You need to restart the server after you have switched on logging with Profile Parameter rec/client.

Please look into SAP note 163694.

The logs will appear when logging had been switchced on, and the application server had been restarted.

Thanks for your quick response.
