Looking Up SAP Supplied Events

Hi Scot,
Do you want to check WHETHER an event was raised when you did something in
the system?
If so, use the event log.
 
Do you want to check WHAT events are raised/or can be raised by doing
something in the system?
In that case, the answer's not so easy.
Events may be raised based on any of the following depending on the
transaction involved:
 
* Configuration options (e.g. parked documents), HR events
* Changed documents, i.e. audit trail
* Status management
* Message control, i.e. output determination as part of SD/MM documents
* Programmed events - might be in SAP standard, might have to put them in a
user exit.
 
And then there's the question of whether you want to use an SAP standard
event or your own custom event.
There are some OSS notes that help in component BC-BMT-WFM.
 
Otherwise you'll need to be a little more specific, e.g. What's the
transaction your using?
What sort of event are you looking for (created, deleted, changed, changed
on a particular field,
requested, etc.)?
 
Suggest you start with OSS.
Try looking up your transaction code and the term "workflow" or "event".
Or if you know your business object and event name, try entering those as
search terms.
Try using component BC-BMT-WFM and the term "event" to find some explanatory
notes.
 
And of course use the R/3 library documentation under Basis > Business
Management (Business Engineering in 3.1) >
Workflow.  You'll find there's quite a bit of information on how to set up
events, especially in the Workflow
tutorials.   If it's related to a standard workflow, you may also find more
info in the Workflow Scenarios section.

3.1 to 4.0
Go into transaction "SWLD"
than go to Utilities--->Event_Log---> Event_Log on/off
activate event log
than go to Utilities--->Event_Log---> display
 
4.6 path look a little different. You will find the same functionality in
the navigation bar on the left site of your screen

I case you are in the production system make sure you switch the event log
off afterwards. It will eat performance.
 
In case it is
 
 
How do I check where SAP Supplied events are raised?
 
 
 
Thanks,
Scot
