Copy Check indicators SU25

USOBT and USOBX tables

The SU25 transaction is needed during the initial installation of SAP and during each subsequent upgrade. Its main utility is to copy the SAP provided check indicator defaults from the USOBT and USOBX tables to the corresponding customer tables, USOBT_C and USOBX_C.

These two sets of tables are needed so that the customer changes are not over-written by SAP delivered values during a future upgrade.

USOBT_C and USOBX_C Tables

The first step (1) is to initially fill the customer tables (USOBT_C and USOBX_C) is ONLY executed during initial installation of SAP. Executing this step during a future upgrade will over-write all customer changes to check indicators.

The next set of steps compare the customer values with SAP delivered values. We have the option of accepting one or more of SAP proposed values while keeping the customer values for the rest of the objects.

Since any change to check indicators for a transaction will impact all roles with it, a change during SU25 should be thoroughly analyzed and backed up by rigorous testing of the affected transaction.

The SU25 initial screen also has options to transport the new values for the customer tables, modify and generate roles which are affected by changes made for check indicators or even branch to SU24.
