Export to memory/Import from memory

Former Member — Wed, 08 Mar 2006 20:13:05 GMT

When you're exporting to memory and there are multiple users on an online transaction. Does memory mean the users own memory. If multiple users are on AS02 and you have to custom sub screens and you want to export a field to memory on the 1st custom screen and import it on the other screen, is it possible to import another users memory if they're in that transaction doing the same thing?

No, it is limited to the user session. You will not access other users memory space.

<i>ABAP/4 memory

The contents of the ABAP/4 memory are retained only during the lifetime of an external session (see also Organization of Modularization Units). You can retain or pass data across internal sessions. The EXPORT TO MEMORY and IMPORT FROM MEMORY statements allow you to write data to, or read data from, the ABAP memory.</i>

Hi,

There are two types of Memories

ABAP memory is a temporary memory which can store data for a session. In this case each user will have his own memory.

For more information on ABAP Memory click the below link

SAP Memory is used to store and access data from different sessions. Users accessing the memory will have the same data.
