  • Key Concepts: 
    Trace logging is a feature of SAP's Client/Server Technology (BC-CST) that allows administrators to track and log the activities of users on the system. It records information such as user logins, system errors, and other system events. This information can be used to troubleshoot problems, identify security issues, and monitor user activity. 
    
    How to use it: 
    Trace logging can be enabled or disabled in the SAP system. To enable trace logging, an administrator must first create a trace log file in the SAP system. This file will contain all of the information that is recorded by the trace logging feature. Once the trace log file is created, the administrator can then enable trace logging by setting the appropriate parameters in the SAP system. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When enabling trace logging, it is important to ensure that only authorized personnel have access to the trace log file. Additionally, it is important to regularly review the contents of the trace log file to ensure that all activities are being tracked and logged correctly.
