Limit program runs

rodrigo_paisante3 — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 16:02:34 GMT

Hi all,

I need to limit the number of executions of a program, up to 4 runs simultaneously. More than 10 users have access for the program.

Is it possible? Can I do it using ABAP?

Thanks!

You can achieve this by checking the Processes which are running on the server.

Call FM TH_WPINFO to get the information of the processes which are running.

From the output table, count the running processes which runs that specific report.

And if it is greater than 4 than give error to the User.

Are we talking about custom or standard programs?

If custom, then one possible way(although not efficient) is to add a logic at the start and end of the program to update a counter store maybe in a Ztable or memory. And check for this counter at the start.

Hi friends,

thanks for your answers.

The solution with SAP memory is not bad, but this FM is exactly what I need, it is like SM50 tcode.
