Summary :
SAP note identifies an issue in AS ABAP where the method of logon (successful or unsuccessful) was not distinguishable in the security audit logs. To resolve this, SAP suggests applying a kernel patch as detailed in SAP Note 1716826 and importing the respective ABAP Support Package or manually implementing correction instructions. Additionally, for further clarification on logon methods, refer to SAP Note 320991.
