A 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.

S 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

one simple example : You are creating sales order from file and also you want to update header text of sales order.

when you want to update sales order header text,you need to use save_text function module ,here you need to pass sales order number.

when you use call transaction update 'A', data will update transaction level and it goes to the next record,here it will not wait for database .

when you use call transaction update 'S',data will update transaction level and it will update database then it goes next record.

if you want to update header text,then you need to use sync update

database commit -

comitt work - it will update data in database sucessfully

roll back - it will not update in database.

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.
