Asynchronous Update – The program does not wait for the work process to finish the update. Commit Work.

Asynchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction does not wait for any updates it produces to be completed. It simply passes the updates to the SAP update service. Asynchronous processing therefore usually results in faster execution of your data transfer program.

Asynchronous processing is NOT recommended for processing any larger amount of data. This is because the called transaction receives no completion message from the update module in asynchronous updating. The calling data transfer program, in turn, cannot determine whether a called transaction ended with a successful update of the database or not.

If you use asynchronous updating, then you will need to use the update management facility (Transaction SM12) to check whether updates have been terminated abnormally during session processing. Error analysis and recovery is less convenient than with synchronous updating.

Synchronous Update – The program wait for the work process to finish the update. Commit Work and Wait.

Synchronous updating. In this mode, the called transaction waits for any updates that it produces to be completed. Execution is slower than with asynchronous updating because called transactions wait for updating to be completed. However, the called transaction is able to return any update error message that occurs to your program. It is much easier for you to analyze and recover from errors.

L Local updating. If you update data locally, the update of the database will not be processed in a separate process, but in the process of the calling program. (See the ABAP keyword documentation on SET UPDATE TASK LOCAL for more information.)

Hi,

Synchronous Update : This means say if u have 10 records to update and the processing is going on in a loop the Synchronous update will wait till each update is actually done in the data base and then it will move on the next record's updation.

Asynchronous : In This mode, the updates are lined one after the other and the system doesn't wait for the updates to actually happen. These updates are then triggered by an internally scheduled job which then actually updates the data in the databse.
