SAP Note 22044 - Breakpoint ignored in system programs

Symptom:

A dynamically set breakpoint is ignored in a system program (e.g. in a logical database).

Cause and prerequisites

System programs are blocked against debugging.

Solution

The indicator "System program" means that such a program cannot be displayed in debugging mode, in order to avoid bothering the enduser with unknown coding.

To debug a system program, either

• reset the attribute in SE38/Attributes

• Activate the "System debugging" flag in ABAP/4 debugging.
