Hi Swati,

Many threads are present for the same query, unnecessarily why you want your thread to be locked.

Anyhow i am giving the steps follow them.

SE11->lock object->EZTABLE->SHORT DES->click on tables tab->give table name for which you want to create lock->click on dropdown button and select the type of lock that you want ->save->check and activate.

Cheers!!

How should this implement for a table

[Former Member]

Hi,

If you have created lock for your table then you have implemented what more your want, if you want to test the lock try to access the entries from the table and check.

Anyways follow the below link can help you to understand still better.

hello swati,

Once lock has been created that means it has been implemented. No need to implement it again. If you want to test GOTO SM12 and check, it will chow you locked.

i have created 4 different table views for a single table and i also created a lock object with a shared lock option in SE11 now all i need is if the 4 different user should edit the single table at a time.

Thanks in advance

Hi Swati,

This may not be possible, because you have created shared lock for the four different views but the table is one.

So when one is editing then definitely if the other try to access the same entries then the object will be locked.

First understand how and which lock can do which type of action.

For your assistance read this and try to find the answer.

Exclusive lock

The locked data can be read or processed by one user only. A request for another exclusive lock or for a shared lock is rejected.

Shared lock

Several users can read the same data at the same time, but as soon as a user edits the data, a second user can no longer access this data. Requests for further shared locks are accepted, even if they are issued by different users, but exclusive locks are rejected.

Exclusive but not cumulative lock

Exclusive locks can be requested by the same transaction more than once and handled successively, but an exclusive but not cumulative lock can only be requested once by a given transaction. All other lock requests are rejected.

Cheers!!
