I know I’ve talked about this report before, but it’s become especially valuable to me lately. I’ve worked in a few environments that are highly customized. I’ve done the old school diggings of starting in a spot and either looking for Z programs, or spending hours in debug. Well, this program has quite literally saved me hours in the past weeks. This standard program allows you to type in a variable, a phrase, whatever that you are looking for, and it will search everything you request and show you where it has been used.
My most recent example was trying to find an EXPORT to MEMORY phrase. I found the import, but I needed to see what was being sent in the export. Well, I dug for an hour or so, with no luck. So I decided to give this a try. I set the program off, and a few hours later, I found exactly what I was looking for. This allowed me to focus on some other issues, while the program did the tedious digging for me. It was awesome.
If you have never tried: RPR_ABAP_SOURCE_SCAN and you are either a programmer or functional person that can debug, then like me you probably wasted a lot of hours in digging. Give it a try. It’s awesome, and I can’t believe that SAP doesn’t make it more widely known.
