Goto SE11

Entern Lock Object Name : EZTAB1. (Should start with EZ or EY).

Select Create Button..

Enter the Primary Table (your ztable).

Save and Activate .

It will generate two FMs

1. ENQUEUE_EZTAB1 (To lock the record)

2. DEQUEUE_EZTAB1. (To release the Lock)

Using Pattern call these FMs in your program

Hi,

correct me if I am wrong. After u create, if u or anyone else opens that table then only its locked, right?

if u dont see that entry in SM 12, that means its not locked.

Hi venkateshwar,

Lock objects are use in SAP to avoid the inconsistancy at the time of data is being insert/change into database.

SAP Provide three type of Lock objects.

• Read Lock(Shared Locked)

protects read access to an object. The read lock allows other transactions read access but not write access to

the locked area of the table

• Write Lock(exclusive lock)

protects write access to an object. The write lock allows other transactions neither read nor write access to

the locked area of the table.

• Enhanced write lock (exclusive lock without cumulating)

works like a write lock except that the enhanced write lock also protects from further accesses from the

same transaction.
