List of Cloned Programs in SAP

Former Member

Hi

I need to find out the list of cloned programs in SAP system.

Is there any method or table to find these cloned progrms?

For Example:

SAP program: RSEOUT00

Cloned Program:ZRSEOUT00 or Z15RSEOUT00 or YRSEOUT00 or YProcIdoc

The above cloned program uses all the includes used in the SAP satandard program with some additional functionality that fits the customer.

I need the list of such programs in SAP system.

Thanks in Advance.

It is difficult find cloned program. except if maintained separate naming standard .

For example all cloned program should start with y_clone_XXXXXX something like that

Hello,

If you clone a standard report in a non German language, then the table TRDIRT will have two entries for that report.

One in German and one in the new language.

Though, you cannot get the parent program name from this.

Hi,

check this blog:

Hi Andrea,

I mean the cloned program means a match in the coding of a custom program with the standard one.But not in terms of names of custom and standard programs.

As per the clone hunter mentioned above it only gives a percentage match of names of standard and custom programs but does not look for the coding match percentage.

So this might be of no use for us.

Hi Andrea,

As per the Simple Clone Hunter Lite Version,As per my knowledge it is not considering the Coding part of the standard and custom programs.

If Iam wrong Can I know the version of the clone hunter you are taking about.

This is quite difficult if the clone is well hidden e.g. a very different program name. Isn't there any documentation available for the customer programs at your site?

An approach could be to look for programs in the customer name range the reference includes in the SAP name range. Table D010INC could be used for this, with some fine tuning of the selection criteria for MASTER and INCLUDE.

As mentioned in that blog, clones are the biggest pain once the system is being upgraded, so don't create them in the first place.
