Output
If you have started the program in test mode, the system displays an ALVlist of all data exchange definitions that can be prorated on thespecified proration date. You also have other analysis and evaluationoptions.
If you start the program in production mode, an application log isgenerated, which you can evaluate using transaction SLG1. Theapplication log displays which entries have been selected, which havebeen changed, and which are incorrect.

Example
You have prorated data exchange process DEXPROC (valid January 15, 2007to December 31, 2010) on June 10, 2007:
Before:
1) DEXPROC valid January 15, 2007 to December 31, 2010
After:
1) DEXPROC valid January 15, 2007 to October 5, 2007
2) DEXPROC valid October 6, 2007 to December 3, 2010
