Where can I find the message log?

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I've got a batch process which consists of some programs. One program contain following code:

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

     MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

             WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

So my question is, where can I find this log and read the messages?  I can't find the log.  Please help.

Regards,

Sergio

Hi Sergio,

You can find the messages in the SM37 transaction.

Hi Christian,

when I open SM37 I can't see any entries in the log (sy-msgid etc.)

You've convinced me. Thank you very much. Seemingly something is wrong with my code.

Hello Sergio,

You can find the log of Batch input session in SM35. Select the session which you want to see log and click on log push buttion in application toolbar and double click on the displayed line.

Hello Christian,

I couldn't solve the problem. The messages don't appear in the log. Do you have an idea for the problem? May I see your used code?

Hi Sergio,

You can try the sample report below.

START-OF-SELECTION.

   CALL FUNCTION 'CACS_GET_USER_PARAMETER'

     EXPORTING

       i_uname        = p_user

       i_parid        = 'PARAMTHATDONTEXIST'

     EXCEPTIONS

       no_entry_found = 1

       OTHERS         = 2.

   IF sy-subrc <> 0.

     MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno

             WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.

   ENDIF.

Hope it helps.
