Use

For messages, you can define whether an application log entry is written and whether a CCMS alert is triggered.

You can access the application log using transaction SLG1, application log object /SRMERP/.

Requirements

Standard settings

SAP delivers a system table with default settings. By default, logging is active for all message types (E, A, and X). You can display the system table using table view /SRMERP/V_MSG_S. If you do not define any settings in this Customizing activity, the system uses the default settings.

Activities

The settings you define in this Customizing activity are stored in a Customizing table. To specify the messages that an entry applies to, you use the following columns: Message class, Msg.no., Message Type. You can make entries in several ways:

  • Entry for a specific message of a specific type: Enter the message class, the message number, and the message type.
  • Entry for a specific message: Enter the message class and the message number.
  • Entry for a specific message type in a specific message class: Enter the message class and the message type.
  • Entry for all messages in a message class: Enter the message class and leave the message number and the message type empty.
  • Entry for messages of a certain type in all message classes: Enter the message type and leave the message class and message number empty.
  • Entry for all messages: Leave all three fields empty and select the Log and Alert checkboxes as required.

When a message is generated, the system checks for matches in the Customizing table in the following order:

  1. Entry exists for this message class, message number, and message type
  2. Entry exists for this message class and message number
  3. Entry exists for this message class and message type
  4. Entry exists for this message class
  5. Entry exists for this message type
  6. Generic entry exists for all message classes, message numbers, and message types

As soon as a matching entry is found, the corresponding setting is used for the message.

If no match is found in the Customizing table, the system table is used.
