can update module call normal module?

[tongping]

Question:

1. can update module call normal module?

when I run a normal function module (which was supposed to run for a long time) in update module, i got some inbox message soon: the update terminated.

2. can a normal module run endlessly in the update module?

that's what I want; only in some case, the normal module will read some flag from DB to end itself.

3. when i run a normal function module with a endless loop directly in SAP GUI, it always ends within 1 miniute or so. Why?

4. can update module run endlessly as a daemon process? If not, what's the way to run ABAP code as daemon process?

Thanks and kind regards,

I think I'd better to extract part questions to a new thread.

hi tong,

i didnt get u, what is meant by deamon process?

yes, u can call normal fn module in update fn module.

call fn in update mode.

inside the fn u can write normal fn modules. no problem. the update fn module will be called only when commit work is reached.
