Hi...

The _SCOPE parameter will determine how the Locks are passed during V1 and V2 updates.

_SCOPE = 1 means Lock entries are deleted while passing the control to V1 update work process.

_SCOPE = 2 means Lock entries are passed while passing the control to V1 update work process. They are deleted at the End of V2.

This is the default setting.

_SCOPE = 3 means Lock entries are created only while passing the control to V1 update work process. They are again deleted at the End of V2.

Hii Tarun..

This comes under Database Updates Concept in SAP.

Let me give u basic idea.

V1 V2 Updates are processed by Update Work processes .

V1 - Means Critical updates which runs under locking

V2 - Means Non Critical updates which runs without locking

For this we use the statement

We will create/use a FM in SE37 with Processing type Update module.

And this function is called using

CALL FUNCTION 'FM' IN UPDATE TASK

Only in this scenario the _SCOPE parameter in Lock objects modules will work differently .

Otherwise you need not to bother about this parameter.
