INGTWS : Logging and use of Exit AOFEXC21 for Displays needed

We use INGTWS to do requests against our IWS-Controller in production environments.
In normal cases the interface works fine, but we are unable to analyse failure situations which occured with REQUEST=DISPLAY in the follow up.

With REQUEST=MODIFY the action was logged in the netlog (MsgID AOF705I) and the exit AOFEXC21 was called.
That was good !

With REQUEST=DISPLAY the Action was NOT logged and the Exit was NOT called.
That was NOT good for problem analyses in the follow up !

We are unable to analyse failure situation with REQ=DISP, because we did not know which parameters were entered in the INGTWS panel.
No Data was written in the netlog and no data was written in the IWS-Log. So we are unable to find the parms and could not solve the problem.

What we realy need for analyses:

INGTWS with REQ=DISP should also do logging in netlog and also call exit AOFEXC21. Same as request=MODIFY.
