Enqueue Transaction

[Former Member]

Hi

i have a custom transaction in SAP.

if a user is currently running the transaction and that same time if any other user tries to run the same transaction i should display error that "you cannot run the transation at this time". in short only one person can run the transaction at any given point of time.

can anyone help me how to achieve this

awaiting your reply and thanks in advance

Hi Sai,

Create a Lock object with mode 'E' on the tables used in the custom program. Activate the lock object, when u do it 2 Function Modules are generated<b>[ENQUEUE_<Lock_object_name> and DEQUEUE_<Lock_object_name> ]</b> CALL The Enqueue module in PBO which is used to lock and call the Dequeue module after exit statement in PAI to Unlock.

For Further Information on Lock objects check out SAP Library.

Hi Sai,

Check out this example code-

This code is for locking the table for calorific values(te450).

In the same way, you should find a function module for your table. You can find it by going to se37 transaction and typing 'ENQUEUE*' and press F4.

CONSTANTS:

lc_exc_lock TYPE c VALUE 'E',

lc_enqueue_scope TYPE c VALUE '2',

lc_dequeue_scope TYPE c VALUE '3'.

• Lock the table te450

CALL FUNCTION 'ENQUEUE_EZCALOR_VALUE'

EXPORTING

mode_te450 = lc_exc_lock

scope = lcenqueue_scope

EXCEPTIONS

foreign_lock = 1

system_failure = 2

OTHERS = 3.

IF sy-subrc <> 0.

EXIT.

ENDIF.

• Modifying the te450 table.

MODIFY te450 FROM TABLE lit_te450.

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

ENDIF.

• Unlock the te450 table.

CALL FUNCTION 'DEQUEUE_EZCALOR_VALUE'

EXPORTING

mode_te450 = lc_exc_lock

scope = lcdequeue_scope.

Reward points if you find this example useful.
