Hi Julius,
Thank's for you response. Sadly its not the ALV grid display restraint as the data displayed is from the SAL *.AUD log file. Thus its the way which the log file is populated with data that would need to be changed.
You are correct that the record is truncated. The length is 64, as per Analysis and Recommended Settings of the Security Audit Log (SM19 / SM20) doc describes, and from having a look in the data dictionary for RSAUENTR2 structure confirms this too.
For SAL to log the full length folder path and file name, I am guessing we will need one of our abappers to write an enhancement/mod to increase the field length.
You have mentioned that RAL could be used for recording downloads? So far I have not been able to find this option. Would you have any tips on how to log downloads/opening of attachments in RAL?
As an example, we are using a transaction like VL02N which then has an attachment list. The user opens the attachment list, and then double clicks an attachment to view it.
We are able to use RAL to record the viewing of the attachment list... but not able to record the action of actually opening one of the attachments.
Currently we are using the dynpro recording option for this... should I be looking in another area like RFC logging or?.... any tips on this would be helpful to be able to use RAL to log the opening of an attachment or downloading of data from the ABAP system. (Possibly I should create a new SCN question for this, as my original question is about SAL)
Regards,
Patrick
