In most cases eCATT recordings will be added to test case repository to support interface postings which require manual actions (and are normally done by users). Usually these manual steps generate new business documents in SAP backend system,
and these document numbers must be passed to following interface test cases in the process chain. For this purpose the IFTT variables concept is used. Next test case, which Parent ID points back to the eCATT step, will have values passed by variables
declared during ECATT configuration object creation.
Extracting values from eCATT log
SAP eCATT stores a special log after each script execution. The logs are accessible through SECATT transaction and they contain all system responses:

It is also possible to read values directly from eCATT export parameters. THis option is available for scripts executed locally on the same system where IFTT is installed.
For this variable processor ECATT_EXP can be used with parameter name matching eCATT export parameter:
