Can I see the history of changes in ABAP code?

[bmierzwi]

Hello,
I am currently trying to debug an ABAP program. I cannot find any issue myself and thus the reason from which the problem stems but I do know that the problem occurred some time ago, after a batch of changes was introduced.

So I reckon the best way for me to locate the issue would be to see which parts of the code exactly were changed/added during the last change.

Is there any way for me to see precisely which lines were modified/added? I thought that perhaps I could look for a particular transport and look for the changes to the code there?

Keep in mind please, I am a newbie to ABAP, but I already searched for answer for quite some time and can't find anything.

Cheers,

Hi bmierzwi

From menu> Utilities> Versions> Version management, you can find history version.

Two additional points.

1. If you want to compare versions of entire classes, you can do this in Eclipse. For just methods, use SAPGui.
2. A new version is cut every time a transport containing that object is released.

Perhaps one additional point: you'll (most likely) have to do this in the relevant development system as that is the sole place where you'll see all the versions (whereas only the latest one is available in the prod-system.

Thanks a lot! That is exactly what I required. 🙂

This is helpful.

This has limitations, unfortunately. In some systems, the parameter VERS_AT_IMP in TMS is not activated, thus you may not see the versions in followup systems, only in development systems.

Hi Bartosz,

You'll find version history via the menu path Utilities → Versions → Version management

Thanks a lot, exactly what I was looking for. 🙂
