Symptom
- When changing the bank account for a business partner with supplier role, the workflow for sensitive fields is triggered, but the bank account is not listed in the "Changes to Sensitive Fields".
- Changes for non-key fields can be found under "All Changes" and "Changed Fields", but changes for the bank account are not displayed.
- The issue occurs when attempting to review changes to sensitive fields in the FK08 and FK09 applications.
Environment
SAP S/4HANA Cloud Public Edition
Reproducing the Issue
- Define sensitive fields for dual control in the SSCUI "Define Sensitive Fields for Dual Control (Vendors)".
- Make a change to a supplier master data record for its bank details, such as changing the bank account number or bank account name.
- Access the FK08 application "Confirm Vendor Individually (Accounting)" and check for changes to the supplier's record.
- Observe that the bank account name change does not appear for approval, and changes to the bank account number are displayed as entries and deletions instead of showing all changes made.
Cause
- Bank data of suppliers is stored in the LFBK table, where certain fields are designated as key fields.
- Changes to the bank account involve two steps: deletion of the old bank data and insertion of the new data.
- Due to this process, changes to the bank account cannot be displayed under "Changes to Sensitive Fields".
Resolution
To locate changes for the bank account:
- Check the old value via the "Deletions" button in the FK08 application.
- Check the new value via the "Entries" button in the FK08 application.
If additional fields are defined as sensitive but do not display changes, confirm whether they are supported for dual control functionality.
Refer to SAP Note 2963059 for submitting feature requests to improve the behavior of unsupported sensitive fields.
