About this report

The SAP Change Documents / Audit Trail report, explained.

What this report answers

The Change Documents / Audit Trail report gives process owners, analysts and auditors one readable answer to a question that normally takes several screens: report who changed which field of which object to what value using SAP change documents (CDHDR header + CDPOS items). Rather than working through transactions one object at a time, you get 20 pre-selected columns side by side — keys, descriptions and organizational context in one place, ready to filter, pivot and share.

How teams pull this data today

The usual route to this data is SCU3 or FB04 for the on-screen view, followed by SE16 downloads of CDHDR, CDPOS stitched together in Excel. Each export is a snapshot: text fields arrive as codes, the joins are rebuilt by hand, and by the time the workbook reconciles, the numbers are already a day old. Multiply that by every month-end or every expediting run, and the report becomes a job of its own.

What PostNow changes

In PostNow the report ships ready to run. The 2 underlying tables (CDHDR, CDPOS) are already joined on the correct key fields, code values are resolved into plain-language texts, and results land directly in Excel. Every run is read-only inside your own SAP session — the engine reads data, it never changes it. Refresh whenever you need a current version, tighten the filters, or use the report as a starting point and adjust columns in the visual builder. It behaves identically on SAP ECC and S/4HANA.

Frequently asked questions

Which SAP tables does the Change Documents / Audit Trail report read?

It joins 2 tables — CDHDR, CDPOS — on their standard key fields. Text and check tables are resolved automatically, so the output shows readable names and descriptions instead of raw codes, and the 20 delivered columns can be extended in the visual builder if you need more.

How do I get change documents / audit trail data from SAP into Excel without ABAP?

Transactions like SCU3 and FB04 show the data on screen, but a clean Excel extract from them means manual exports and re-formatting every time. PostNow reads the same tables through standard interfaces — no ABAP, no transports. You pick the report in the Excel add-in, set filters such as company code and date range, and the joined result is written straight into your sheet. Every run is read-only and happens inside your own SAP session — nothing is ever written back.

Can I filter the report by company code, date range or other criteria?

Yes. Every report has selection filters with SAP value help, so you can narrow by company code, posting or document dates, plants, accounts and more before anything is fetched. A max-rows guard keeps first runs fast, and once the selection looks right you can widen it and refresh — the report remembers your filters.
