Creating Change Documents for newly created 'Z' Table

[Soady, Phil]

Hi Greg,
if the do RFC, what function are the calling.
Go wack some code in that function !!!.
Or are the calling kernel routines directly. Tut Tut Tut!!!!
If they are calling a function which one would expect, (trace it in SM01)
then you can indeed capture the call  and then call the functions
you generated in the SCd0.

Thanks Jocelyn, that's what I was afraid of.  The problem being on my end is that the 'code' that is updating the Z table is an external precompiled 3rd party adapter using an RFC so I cannot change this update code nor intercept the update :-(
 
Thanks for the input as you definitely verified that I will have to take a different approach.
 
Thanks again!
 
Cheers,
Greg
