Break point does not work for Invoice report printing

[Former Member]

Hello experts,

I want to debug program that run smartform to see how calculate some datafields.

In my case it is Invoice smartform report.

My problem - I cant to stop program running by break point.

I have try do it follow by such scenario:

1) in SE38 I set breakpoint in my program in "entry" subroutine

2) then I go to VF02 (Change Billing Document), in menu Goto->Header->Output

3) press "Repeat output" button for existing line

4) go to menu System->Utilities->Debug ABAP, then Save

5) Debug session is opening, I see my sesssion breakpoint in tab of Break/Watchpoints

6) I press "Continue (F8)" but my break point is ignored and debug session closing

What is wrong?

Also I have try to set session break point in generated function module for my smartform,

result is the same.

Thanks in advance.

You need to start the Update Debugging from the Debugger. Inside Debugger, Settings > Update Debugging. Now, when you press F8, it will stop at your break point.

System calls the Print Program to print the smartform from the Update Process. To make it stop at your break point, you have to activeate the Update Debugging.
