Hi Ruud,
It's SAP thing - the messages are parameterized.
Please note sometimes more than the object number is parameterized. For Example & or &1 will return a document type and &2 would return the document number. So you will need to play around with it to return just what you want.
I use the same &1 for generated material for MM01 in an S4 system:
Other than that, you can put text in the message transforms, in addition to using the & , which means &1 or the first parameter or &2 etc.
It's a great pro tip I learned a few years after trying to use formulas to parse the output, which isn't ideal, especially if you have global users using different languages, and thus the SAP messages change.
Best Regards,
Sigrid

In the video it's mentioned to use "&" to return solely the document number. What other option do we have here? Also, why is the option to use "&" in log message transformation not described anywhere in the Winshuttle documentation?
