Examining Analyzer Capabilities

• Check RAW and SAP structure. Analyze the mapping in customizing to find out where the field was changed.
• Check the structure and field mappings:
  • Check the fix values, checks, value mappings, and conditional mappings used in the interface.
  • Check the function modules used.

The analyzer, integrated within the SAP Application Interface Framework Test Tool, allows users to track data processing across different interface steps. To use the analyzer, simply open a file in the test tool and select the Analyze button. Ensure that the message you wish to analyze is initiated with the Test Tool.

By running the test file in the Test Tool, users can preview the transformed data and observe any log messages generated during the process. Also, the SAP Application Interface Framework Analyzer feature provides insights into the interface processing steps.

After you start the mapping, the Analyzer button appears. You can use the Analyzer to see what happened.

1. Show DDIC structures for SAP and RAW structure or show log messages.
2. Show the content of the SAP and RAW structure at a certain SAP Application Interface Framework processing step.
3. Show where a specific field of the SAP and RAW structure has been used.
4. Show where a specific field of the SAP and RAW structure has been changed.

1. In the Analyzer, you can navigate to the corresponding DDIC element of the SAP or RAW structure. There are two ways to navigate to the element:
   1. You select the structure, table or field, and selectShow DDIC from the context menu.
   2. Show the DDIC button from the standard toolbar above the RAW and SAP structure.
2. In the analyzer, you can use the Display Log button to display messages in a separate window. With the log message window open, you can still work in the analyzer.

The analyzer can display the content of the RAW and SAP structure at a certain point in the SAP Application Interface Framework processing.

1. At a double-click on a process step, the Analyzer highlights the fields in the RAW and SAP structure that were used in or affected by this step.
   1. Yellow: Customizing settings for the selected fields.
   2. Red: (All) fields that are used in customizing settings highlighted in yellow.
   3. Blue: (All) fields that are changed by the customizing settings highlighted in yellow.
2. The Process Step pane enables you to navigate through the interface step by step. You can compare the results of different process steps and see where and when data has been changed.

The Analyzer can show where a specific field of the RAW and SAP structure has been used in the interface. The usage of the field is highlighted in the RAW and SAP structure and the Process Step pane.

1. To show the usage, right-click on a field, and select Show where the field is used.
2. This feature is working for fields in the RAW structure as well as for fields in the SAP structure. Instead of the right-click menu, you can also use the highlighted button as shown.

The Analyzer can show where a specific field of the RAW and SAP structure has been changed in the interface. Changes to the field are highlighted in the RAW and SAP structure and in the Process Step pane.

1. To show where a field has been changed, right-click the field, and select Explain changes to field.
2. The feature is working for fields in the RAW structure as well as for fields in the SAP structure. Instead of the right-click menu, you can also use the highlighted Explain button as shown.
