2942528 - Is it Possible to Allow Filter Change History log Based on Custom Node Fields

Symptom

You have created PDI fields in the system in Business Transaction Documents and those fields are not available as attribute in Change Logs

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

SAP Business ByDesign

Reproducing the Issue

Below is one example and it is same behavior is any UI

  1. Go to Sales workcenter
  2. Sales Quotes view
  3. Open any quote
  4. Navigate to Changes tab
  5. In the Attribute drop-down look for PDI fields

None of the field is available

Cause

You have created an extension node and expect attributes from these extension nodes to occur in value help for fields in change history.

However it is not possible because in order to do so would mean updating standard back-end tables which do not allow for customization in this way, for consistency and performance reasons.

Resolution

This requirement is not possible with current system architecture.
