Object type matrix
The following matrix indicates the object types supported by various LiveCompare operations.
Standard objects A - M
Standard objects N - Z
-
Find Object Links (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Find Object Links actions.
-
Uses What (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Uses What actions.
-
Where Used (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Where Used actions.
Key (standard objects)
1
Returns the BSP Page’s used components and its associated Class (CLAS), as well as top-level Class objects for the BSP Application (WAPA).
2
These objects may appear in Uses What results.
3
Appears in Where Used results for Classes (CLAS).
4
Support of ENHO objects by the Analyze ABAP Quality action is limited to ENHO objects that contain ‘code insertions’, and doesn't include EBHO BADI implementations.
5
Returns no results as SPROXREG Services (SPRX) are top-level objects.
6
Compares the changed keys only for Table Contents in a transport.
7
Appears in Object Differences reports for Table Keys (TABK).
8
Compares the changed keys only for Table Contents in a transport.
BW objects
- Find Object Links (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Find Object Links actions.
-
Uses What (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Uses What actions.
-
Where Used (Read Only) actions support the same object types as Where Used actions.
Key (BW objects)
1
Appears in Where Used results if the Where Used action’s Use Cache property is set to true. Calculation Views (CALV) are retrieved from an RFC Destination’s associated HANA database. Before running the Create Object Links Cache or Where Used actions to retrieve Calculation Views, the following fields should be set by an Administrator in the Configuration - Impact Analysis screen.
| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| BWHANABaseSchemaNames | Used by LiveCompare to identify the BW HANA database BaseSchema that contain calculation views. Enter values separated by ‘;’, for example, _SYS_BIC;DUMMY_NAME. |
| BWHANABaseObjectNameNamespaces | Used by LiveCompare to identify the prefixes used in the names of calculation views. Enter values separated by ‘;’, for example, MELPE;DUMMY_VALUE. |
2
Doesn't support the display or comparison of subobjects.
