Lock Object - Release only by Dequeue

Former Member — Mon, 04 Oct 2010 01:26:47 GMT

Hi ,

I am using a Lock object but the Locks are getting released as soon as i come out of the program.

Is there a way to hold the locks till i call Dequeue FM?

The lock obect created in the ABAP Dictionary are not DB locks. They are logical locks that the SAP application uses. However, they would be released at LEAVE PROGRAM.

Hello,

If you don't explicitly release the locks using DEQUEUE* functions they are released implicitly(e.g., DEQUEUE_ALL).

Details regd. when the locks are released read this online documentation: [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/c2/2d7037ecc92a7ee10000009b38f8cf/frameset.htm]

Yes correct . The locks will be gone when you come out of the Program or after Commit. My question is ' Is there a way to keep those locks on'. Because I wanted to run this program as a batch job to lock all the objects thenn run subsequent batch Jobs.
