• Message text: Information on trace log

Using the trace log
The trace log tells you which conditions the change statuses of the
objects are effective under. This information is particularly helpful
when you are dealing with complex changes so that you can follow up why
change objects with a certain change status are selected.
The log is created for the following change conditions:
Changes with date effectrivity (<LS>Valid-from</> date)
Changes with parameter effectivity (for example, serial no.
effectivity)
Activating the function
You can switch the trace log on and off in the Engineering Change
Management menu (<LS>Environment -> Trace on/off</>).
Outline of the trace log
RESET N1
<ZH>Settings in Customizing for Engineering Change Mnagement</>
The log shows whether the following indicators are set under control
data in Customizing
<DS:DE.CC_VTNEW>Parameter effectivity is active</>
<DS:DE.CC_RLACT>Release is active</>
<DS:DE.CC_RANG>Rank is active</>
Depending on whether an indicator is set or not, the appropriate data
is displayed in the <ZH>list of change numbers</>. If, for example, the
<LS>Rank is active</> indicator is set, the list contains the
<LS>Rank</> field.
<ZH>Assigning values to the parameters</>
The system lists all the <DS:DE.CC_EFFP>effectivity parameters</> that
have values assigned to them in the current processing situation.
The value assignment can have taken place as follows:
User entry (<LS>Parameter entry</> dialog box)
Example: material D7000 and serial number 200
Automatic derivation from the change number
<ZH>List of change numbers</>
The system lists all the change numbers that the object has been
processed with.
You receive the following information for each change master record:
<LS>Display key</> for release and selection
You can use this function to determine the color of the display for the
release status and selection.
For example, the choice of color shows whether a change number is
effective and has been selected because of its release key. The system
also takes into account whether you have just simulated the value
assignment for the effectivity as default entry.
<LS>Effectivity data</>
This function shows which conditions a change with reference to a
certain change number is effective under.
You can make the foillowing entries:
<LS>Valid-from</> date for a change master record that has been
maintained with date effectivity
<LS>Parameters</> and their values for a change master record that you
have maintained with parameter effectivity
Example:
Change master record with effectivity type SERNR (serial no. interval)
The effectivity data shows the material number and the upper and lower
limits of the serial number interval
<DS:DE.CC_EFFT>Effectivity type</>
<DS:DE.CC_EFPR>Priority</> (<LS>Pr</>)
<DS:DE.CC_AERNG>Rank</>
<DS:DE.CC_AEDIF>Internal counter</>
Multi-level nesting of the trace log
You receive a multi-level trace log in the following processing
situations:
You are processing a hierarchical object (for example, a level-by-level
BOM, a multi-level BOM). The object has been processed with reference
to change numbers on several explosion levels.
At least one change number has been determined on the uppermost
explosion level and its effectivity data is the same as the values for
the effectivity parameters (for example, <LS>Parameter effectivity</>
dialog box).
The log is created with the same outline for each explosion level.
<ZH>Selecting a valid change number</>
If the effectivity data of more than one change number coincides with
the values assigned to the effectivity parameters, the system checks
the <DS:DE.CC_EFPR>priority</> (<LS>Pr</>).
The change number with
the <ZH>highest</> priority is selected as being effective.
This change number is shown in the key as follows: Change number is
effective and has been selected (shown in yellow in the standard
system).
a <ZH>lower</> priority is shown as being a valid change number but the
changes made with reference to this change number are <ZH>not</> taken
into account in the explosion.
This change number is shown in the key as follows: Change number is
valid and has not been selected (shown in green in the standard
system).
<ZH>Calling the next explosion level</>
If at least one valid change number has been selected for the current
explosion level (shown in yellow in the standard system), the explosion
can be carried on in the next explosion level with the <LS>Continue</>
function.

• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message CC041 - Information on trace log ?

  The SAP error message CC041, which states "Information on trace log," typically indicates that there is an issue related to the trace logs in the SAP system. This message is often associated with problems in the configuration or execution of certain processes, particularly in the context of SAP Controlling (CO) or other modules that utilize trace logs for performance monitoring and debugging.
  Cause:
  
  Trace Log Issues: The error may arise due to issues in the trace logs, such as missing logs, corrupted logs, or logs that are not being generated as expected.
  Configuration Errors: Incorrect configuration settings in the SAP system can lead to problems with trace log generation.
  Performance Issues: If the system is under heavy load or if there are performance bottlenecks, it may affect the generation and accessibility of trace logs.
  Authorization Issues: Lack of proper authorizations to access or view trace logs can also trigger this error.
  
  Solution:
  
  Check Trace Log Settings: Verify the configuration settings for trace logs in the SAP system. Ensure that trace logging is enabled and properly configured.
  Review System Performance: Monitor the system performance to identify any bottlenecks or issues that may be affecting trace log generation.
  Access Authorization: Ensure that the user has the necessary authorizations to access and view trace logs. You may need to consult with your SAP security team to verify this.
  Analyze Logs: If trace logs are available, analyze them for any errors or warnings that could provide insight into the underlying issue.
  SAP Notes: Check the SAP Support Portal for any relevant SAP Notes that may address this specific error message or provide guidance on troubleshooting.
  System Restart: In some cases, restarting the relevant SAP services or the entire system may resolve temporary issues affecting trace log generation.
  
  Related Information:
  
  Transaction Codes: You can use transaction codes like ST01 (System Trace), ST05 (SQL Trace), or SLG1 (Application Log) to analyze trace logs and gather more information about the error.
  SAP Documentation: Refer to the official SAP documentation for detailed information on trace logs and their configuration.
  SAP Community: Engage with the SAP Community forums to seek advice from other users who may have encountered similar issues.
  
  If the problem persists after trying the above solutions, it may be necessary to involve SAP support for further assistance.
