Hello George

In a project dealing with material master data I had the problem that I needed to update standard as well as customer tables at the same time when the user pushed the SAVE button.

For the standard tables I used BAPI_MATERIAL_MAINTAINDATA_RT (retail material) and for the customer tables I created my own SAVE function modules.

How to ensure that either both (standard and custom) tables are updated or not simultaneously?

I created a special SAVE function module which called both the standard BAPI and my custom SAVE function modules.

This "wrapper" SAVE function module was then called IN UPDATE TASK.

This way I created a LUW (logic unit of work) which comprised both standard and custom tables. If everything was ok both types of tables were updated, otherwise the entire transaction was rolled back.
