This post explains how database update can be performed through transaction codes SE16N and SE16. At times, there might be a situation in the test environment where we are required to perform database updates in order to manipulate or try to replicate a case in a lower environment. Database contents in SAP can be viewed through transaction codes SE16N or SE16. This post explains how the database update can be performed for both transaction codes through debug mode.
