Tcode GR55 not shown in the ST03N report

[Former Member]

Dear SAP Gurus,

When we run the ST03N report on ECC 6.0, we are unable to see the usage of tcode GR55 even though it has been executed many times during the period chosen for the ST03N Report. We also did a ST01 Trace and confirmed that S_TCODE with TCD GR55 was being checked when GR55 was executed. Any help is appreciated

Thanks,

This has been discussed a few times already but few seem to heed the warnings.

ST03N is designed for system analysis and response times for applications. GR55 starts generated (groups of) queries for the report writer and they are aggregated into the same context regardless of the query. The system also "translates" report names and selected transactions into symbolic representatives for the analysis.

You are using the wrong tool. There is however no easy answer either.

Do you have a "crows nest" of queries and want to clean up, or just generally want to know who is using GR55 directly?

You can add report writer queries to the role menus. It will generate a tcode for you and you can evaluate that (e.g. in SM20N).

Hi Julius,

Thanks for the information. Here we are just trying to see the Tcode usage data using ST03N. So we are able to get the tcode usage for all the tcodes except GR55. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Several of them are translated from their context names to the program names or symbolic ones.

What you are looking for as "generic report launchers" in St03N is probably:

SAPMGRWJ --> this is GR55

SAPMS38M --> this is SA38

RSABAPPROGRAM --> this is SE38

SAPMSERP --> this is SARP and SART

SAPMSEU0 --> this is SE80

RSHOWTIM --> this is SE30

RS_TESTFRAME_CALL --> this is SE37

SAPMSSYS --> this is SUB%, launched from shortcuts.

Hi Julius,

Thank you so much for the information. We too observed this pattern. So as per SAP's recommendation we applied a code change in our system. Now ST03N shows all the tcodes as tcodes themselves.

Thanks,

Hi Julius,

Is there any way to see how many hits each extract created by GR55 has gotten?

Each extract has been given a different description.

We are trying to detemine the usage of each individual extract in hopes of combining some and eliminating others.

Thanks in advance for your expertise,

It will take you months to collect the data and work the usage out from the totals and averages.

Rather do a "spring cleaning" of the "crow's nest" and generate transactions for those which are used and control it from the menus.

Much faster. Much easier.

Cheers,

Julius
