Hi,

You can intrduce a endless loop with an exit condition to exit from debug mode in your code at the point where you want to debug and then go to SM50 and use menu path Program/Session>Program>Debugging. Please make sur you have necessary authorization to do so.

The sample code can be like this

data : l_exit(1) type C.

do.

if l_exit = 'X'.

exit.

endif.

enddo.

So if you want to go out of the endless loop just set l_exit to 'X' in debug mode.

Hope it helps.

Hi,

For a batch job or long running program (SM50):

Select the program to be debugged

Menu: Program/Session -> Program -> Debugging

In the job overview(SM37) you can debug each job with the ok-code JDBG.

Warning : This is like a restart of the job.

-> All possible updates will be executed !

Regards,
