Objective
Hidden fields will not be shown in the structure and hidden structures are not shown at all. For the user, this might look like these fields have not been in the message at all.
Confidential data can be hidden. SAP Application Interface Framework allows you to hide specific parts of the structure. This can be complete structures or certain fields of a structure.
SAP Application Interface Framework allows you to hide structures. This can be done on interface or on namespace level. You can hide more than one part of a structure. If a structure that should be hidden has child structures, these structures are also hidden in the Monitoring and Error Handling.
If a structure is defined to be hidden for a specific interface, the structures are not displayed in the Monitoring and Error Handling transaction if this interface is selected. In the Data Structure and the Data Content view of Monitoring and Error Handling, the structures and their corresponding data are not displayed.
Where to customize:AIF Customizing → Error Handling → Interface-Specific Features → Hide Structures.
If different interfaces are using the same root structure within one namespace, you can select messages of these different interfaces at the same time in Monitoring and Error Handling.
The data structure and data content of the different interfaces can be displayed together. To ensure that even then the structures are hidden, you can hide structures on namespace level. In the Data Structure and the Data Content views of the Monitoring and Error Handling, the structures and the corresponding data are not displayed when the user selects the messages from different interfaces.
Where to customize:AIF Customizing → Error Handling → Interface-Specific Features → Namespace-Specific Features → Hide Structures.
