Commit in program

[Former Member]

Hi All,

COMMIT is used in almost in all Standard programs but why we are not using COMMIT in our Z programs.

When you want to commit data to the database from your Z-program, you can and you should.

The Data in the standard programs, most of the times are transactions in which people are entering data like creating a business partner. When pressing SAVE, the data must be stored in the database. Function code SAVE is followed by a COMMIT.

I do use commit in my Z programs.

But here's a few reasons why you don't see any.

Because you're not updating and tables.

Because you're only using CALL TRANSACTION to update the database, which has it's own commit.

Because you're relying on the implicit commit that happens when a program ends.

Do remember that it is a REALLY REALLY BAD IDEA to update standard SAP tables, so you shouldn't be encountering any programs that do this - with or without a commit.
