Objects last change and history of task/method usage

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I'd like to find out the last modifcation date and also the user who did it. Do you know if there is a possibility to display the user and also the date of the last change within UCWB for instance for task or method change?

The task/method settings in SEM-BCS are time dependent: Do you have any idea if it's possible to see the time frame in which a method is in use?

Example:

I've assined method M1 to task A in period 01/2009. Since 01/2010 method M1 is not any longer in use and was substituted by method M2.

Is there any report, transaction, table or option to check this constellation? At the moment, I've always to change the parameters in order to find out differences, but this is not very comfortable.

I thought that if I change a task for a period that then this change will become effective for all following periods. But this is not the case. Is this system behaviour correct? For instance, customize a task in period 01/2009 and afterwards the same task in period 01/2008. Settings in period 01/2009 remain the same.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Best Regards,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

- none that I'm aware of.

I thought that if I change a task for a period that then this change will become effective for all following periods. But this is not the case. Is this system behaviour correct? For instance, customize a task in period 01/2009 and afterwards the same task in period 01/2008. Settings in period 01/2009 remain the same.

- it's the real system behaviour. When you do everything consequently (by time) - everything is ok. But, if you change something in the past periods and do not repost all entries afterwards- expect the trouble. Though, even reposting may not correct the situation - because of the SAP's time dependency treatment.

"We have this functionality only for certain special characteristics

like for example consolidation area or databasis but it is not

available in general for all characteristics values"

Hi Daniel,

If you active "Save log" in the task you can check method In the Monitor Consolidation.

You use function "Last log" for the task and you can check which method was used.

Display Las log - you find in te toolbar "Task" in UCMON.

Hi Anka, Hi Eugene,

thanks for your answers!

I've feared that I would get an answer like Eugene sent me )

@Anka: I know this possibility to check which method was used during run time. But I'm more interested in a table (or whatever), which tells me the time frame for a method. Like method 1 is used in task A from 01/2009 till 12/2009 since 01/2010 method 2 is in use.

It's also an issue that I can't see who did the last change. In "standard" BW you can see who was the last changer.

Anyway, thanks again for your answers!

Have a good day!

Daniel
