Use

You can use this to set whether and how data records should be logged in the application log for the user specified. Choose one of the following options:

  • (Space/blank): The data records are not logged
  • X (Normal): Only the number of data records are logged
  • D (Detailed): The contents of the data records are also logged

Dependencies

Detailed logging in productive operation can quickly lead to large database tables and therefore to a drop in performance. In this case, we recommend the following procedure:

  • Archive the logs regularly using transaction CFGD or schedule this transaction as a background job.
  • Configure the application log using transaction CFC6 so that only the important data records are logged (only applies to detailed logging).
