You can create a where-used list of screens for the data element in data element documentation maintenance. An index must be set up or updated.

The programs which maintain this index take the program name as a parameter. It is thus possible to edit the index both for all programs in the system and for a selection.

The following programs are involved:

  • RSCRIDX4 - inserts new entries or corrects existing ones
  • RSCRIDX3 - deletes entries that are no longer required

The programs must run in the stated sequence.

Example

Requirements

Standard settings

The index is not complete in the delivery version.

Variants for starting the index structure are delivered:

  • For the creation
    • SAP_RSCRIDX4_A .. SAP_RSCRIDX4_Z
    • SAP_RSCRIDX3
  • For the regular update
    • SAP_RSCRIDX4AZ
    • SAP_RSCRIDX3

Recommendation

SAP recommends that you update the index regularly after creation (for example, daily during intensive development activities or weekly or monthly during less intensive development activities).

The index structure or the update should be performed as a background job when the system load is low.

In the case of creation, a step by step procedure is recommended. The program RSIDXJOB schedules and releases a background job (DE-Index).

Activities

  • Update the index
    Call job maintenance by double-clicking the Execute button and schedule a job with the following steps for a time when system load is low:
    • RSCRIDX4 with variant SAP_RSCRIDX4AZ
    • RSCRIDX3 with variant SAP_RSCRIDX3
