You can log the changes of data like append, modification or delete fields in a table.

When you create your transparent table, you can go to the technical settings screen and set the flag "Log data changes".
SE11 -> Technical Settings -> tick the Log data changes

Remember that you must have the parameter rec/client set in the system profile.
RZ10 - Extended Maintenance

• rec/client = ALL (log all clients)
• rec/client = 000(,...) (log all specified clients)
• rec/client = OFF (do not log)

Logging is independent of update. Obviously, it will slow down the accesses when you change the table as record have to be written into the log table for each change.
