  • What is the cause and solution for SAP error message W8726 - Field & is not part of change document ?
    SAP Error Message:
    W8726 Field & is not part of change document
    
    
    Cause: This warning message occurs when an attempt is made to log a change for a field that is not included in the change document structure for the respective object. In SAP, change documents track changes to certain fields of business objects. However, only fields explicitly defined in the change document object (via transaction SCDO) can be logged. If your program or standard SAP tries to write a change log for a field that is not part of the change document, this warning is triggered. Explanation: Change documents are used to track changes to important business data. Each change document object defines which fields are monitored. If a field outside this definition is attempted to be logged, SAP issues this warning. This is often encountered during custom developments or enhancements where change document logging is manually triggered for fields not included in the change document object.
