funtion module and locks

[prabhu_s2]

hi

i'm trying to create a invoice when a pgi for the delivery is done. output type is all set configured right but the issue is that related to locks. when the pgi is done the delivery number is locked by the internal session and the output control routine calls the form routine and triggers the created trfc for processing inovice creation by BDC method. neither bdc or bapi helps in this case as the delivery number cannot be used as being locked by the process triggered earlier. is there anyother way to overcome this suituation?

You can use some BAdI which is trigerred after PGI OR

You can submit background job in your custom called routine.

This job can check when delivery is released and than proceed.

Maybe you can use Form attached to capture status and background job to create Invoice..
